I’ve been vegan for almost 11 years, and it makes me giddy to know that there are soooo many faux turkey options popping up at local grocery stores everywhere.
Today I want to briefly showcase what I’ll be gorging on this Thursday… The Tofurky Feast ($24.99). It was hard to choose which turkey substitute to go [...]
There are 3 things y’all should probably know about me:
I’m obsessed with cupcakes.

Yahoooo! I used to love Easter candy! Heck, I still do. Thanks to all the amazing modern day vegan Willy Wonkas like Allison at Allison’s Gourmet, we vegans can relish in old time traditions (like chowing down on tasty, chocolatey, bunny-shaped treats) like we used to back in the day. Now we can celebrate Spring [...]
All right, you protein lovin’, Seitan worshipin’ foodies, guess what? I’ve found the tastiest meatless jerky on the planet! Don’t get me wrong, there are lots of vegan jerky options to choose from, but after doing some personal research, I have found a winner.
