What Vegans Eat – Day 35
Breakfast: I’ve heard people say they get bored with oatmeal. We don’t! I think there are a number of reasons for this. We always buy organic rolled oats and use them quickly. They are as fresh as possible, not stale. We refrigerate all of our grains so that they stay fresh and don’t get that…
What Vegans Eat – Day 34
Breakfast: I often crave something savory rather than sweet for breakfast. That’s when leftovers come in very handy.

What Vegans Eat – Day 30
Breakfast: Since going to sleep very late or early in the morning the day before, Gary said that what I posted for dinner yesterday was really our breakfast. So I’m including it as breakfast in this post too. Late night or early morning lasagna, either way, it’s gooey good food. …
