Hello again. I feel as though some further explanation regarding my extended absence is in order: the long and short of it is that I got kind of, well, over my whole deal for a bit. Not tired of eating a “healthy” vegan diet, but tired of documenting everything and trying to make it look [...]

Fat Free Quinoa Tabouleh
On January - 30 - 2011

Vegan MoFo IV, Day #5, Week #1: Comfort Food You know what is really comforting? Grandmothers. Well, not mine (I love you guys!!!!), but the ones on TV, for sure.

Fat Free Tofu Tzatziki
