    Not sure about the title--but I often come across limited time deals on things of interest to many here. We can post the link and sale date and subscribe to this post. I watch for algae DHA/EPA vegan capsules and when I found this deal on amazon I jumped on it-- April 24, 2024 120 capsules for...

    Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

    I used the rest of the Breakfast sausage chopped up and made into a gravy. I even used the old Bisquick up to make biscuits. It was surprisingly good! I also made chocolate pudding, which is cooling now and forming the skin I like

    New Vegan

    I just got the 2nd book from the library, and browsing it's even more in depth and encouraging to go vegan than the first

    New Vegan

    I probably said it before but the Food Inc. by Michael Pollan, and The Last Pig are ones I find most relatable for most folks

    Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

    I'm more interested in the Scooby Doo pasta--is it from hemp? :rofl: I had Impossible keilbasa with onions peppers and ground mustard. I wonder if I used coconut oil in my seitan sausage would it be close? It's the texture I really like and I think it's the lack of fat. Next time I'll make them...

    Fruit & vegetables: how much washing is enough?

    That's encouraging :) I hate washing--the cutting and the soaking and the draining and the rinsing.... I can rinse though! I do...and I brush all root veg...but it's good knowing I'm doing something

    Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

    Corn :drool: Can't wait to get the good stuff here! I'm developing a taste for tempeh now, I used to try and hide it, but turns out I do like it better when it's simmered first. I made the Breakfast sausage recipe from Isa Moskowitz newest Fake Meat and made a sandwich. Wish I had a pasta...

    I’ll Cry If I Want To

    It was YOUR birthday and you opted to attend what, to me at least, would be a dinner I'd suffer though. Even if it had all been to your liking you knew others were unhappy whether they said it or not. I'm normally not that bothered by what others eat, but on a day that should be for what I want...

    Whatcha Eatin?

    Whole grain toast spread with moong dahl and black salt, a light sprinkle of Bac'n chips I cooked the moong dahl for a recipe and had some leftover. I much prefer it like this than the scrambled Just Egg copycat

    Vegan Cookbooks

    Good ol' Isa doesn't disappoint in her latest book--I do find some of the seitans lack hydrdation and resting, so I wouldn't suggest for someone new to seitan, but all the recipes are very creative. Not all seitan either. Making the breakfast sausage now, that is quite similar to mine!

    Plant Based Diet and Health

    Exactly, as well as seeing eating plant based as some kind of extreme. Even when it's called a safe alternative it comes with admonitions of "properly planned" or 'carefully monitored', which translates into hard and extreme. When you look at the changes of usual omnivore diets through history...

    What are some effective ways to go vegan gradually?

    The longer I'm vegan the more I agree. I don't know people going vegan, but I do know many who incrementally eat more and more plant based meals. People eat what they do out of familiarity, not so much to attain a goal. When you make meals without meat you learn techniques and taste combinations...

    Sandwiches & Wraps

    I ask for that every time I get Chinese, as I don't use that much, and use it in my pepperoni seitan. Meateaters have said they prefer it to meat pepperoni because it's not as greasy, and has the taste and texture

    Most Moving Vegan Movie/Documentary

    Probably mentioned this alread, but the documentary "The Last Pig" was very powerful. When people actually get involved with the lives of animals, and not just seeing them as commodities it can change them.

    The Everything Non-Dairy Thread

    I haven't tried Miyokos, but it made me think of this recipe with it's 'mozz' like pour over topping. I thought it was very very good! I do always add some of my vegan mayo to sauces like this instead of just oil https://www.veganricha.com/baked-rigatoni-with-vegan-meat-sauce/
