Whoah, October! What the heck are you doing here already? And what have you brought with you? Vegan MoFo 2012, the Victoria Marathon (8k) and Disneyland? Aaaaaiiiiiiiahhhh! Due to the sheer craziness of this month, I will be keeping my MoFo posts very short and sweet (and sometimes savoury) this year. Since transitioning to a [...]
Next Day Mexican Lasagna
On October - 14 - 2011
You know what, Vegan MoFo friends? I forgot to theme my posts this week. Like I said when I forgot to do it last week, my original intention was to focus my posts on teaching kids how to eat healthfully, and, although I haven’t been doing so explicitly, my kids have gobbled every recipe I’ve [...]
Happy Thanksgiving, Puerto Vallarta Amigos!
On October - 10 - 2011
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone who is Canadian and also those who are not Canadian yet appreciate the sentiment of gratitude in October.

But today is Cinco de Mayo, so I’m totally justified. Except that I am Canadian and Wikipedia claims this day has nothing to do with me. Oh, [...]
Low Fat Vegan Tostadas
On January - 14 - 2011
Oh yeah. There is nothing better than the delicious freshness of Mexican style food eating. This meal is so incredibly fast if you choose to cut corners like I did tonight. Commercial fresh cut salsa (Like Salsa Man–fresh cut salsa from my home town! Just don’t tell anyone I grew up there…or else.) and guacamole, [...]
(Canadian) Tex Mex Rice Bowl And the Winner is…
On November - 23 - 2010
Vegan MoFo IV, Day #23, Week #4: Vegan Mish Mash and Whatnot Thanks so much for your responses to Mini-Challenge #2. It’s tough getting real vegan food in an un-vegan world, but you guys are making it happen in some mouth-watering ways. Well, some of you, anyway. Some of you are just eating water and [...]
