What Vegans Eat – Day 1648

First Meal: Today is an adventure day. We are going on an adventure. There are lots of lovely white sand beaches on Long Island and we don’t take advantage of them. I chose to go to one that was closest, Rockaway Beach. I had never been there so I don’t know what it looked like…

What Vegans Eat – Day 1647

Tea: We took our long walk through Forest Hills Gardens. It’s a beautiful neighborhood with the loveliest homes I have ever seen. When we were on our way home I suggested we stop into the Red Pipe, the vegetarian Organic Cafe in our ‘hood. We shared a pot of decaffeinated Chai Tea with Soy Milk.…

What Vegans Eat – Day 1646

First Meal: To make up for the crunchy (okay, gritty) Sorghum Waffle experiment the other day, today, I made Light and Crispy Waffles with Oats. I made a double batch and almost screwed it up by adding water for one recipe, not two. I poured the thick batter into the waffle iron when I realized…

What Vegans Eat – Day 1645

First Meal: Yes we eat a lot of waffles. Today’s waffle was an experiment. How do you make good recipes if you don’t try and create something new? I had purchased whole Sorghum a while ago and cooked the grains to try them. I had never had whole Sorghum before. It was okay. Perhaps I…

What Vegans Eat – Day 1644

We have not done a big shopping since we came back from from California. Our pantry and freezer are bare. This is not inspiring when you want to cook. I like to have a wide choice of foods to choose from to come together in a meal, even if it is prepared simply. We took…

What Vegans Eat – Day 1643: Rosendale, NY

First Meal: I joined my brother Barry and his family on a trip to the Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary. I had never been there. I got to their house early and had not eaten anything. I brought a bottle of water along. Visiting the sanctuary was a lot of fun and we had a nice…

Classic French Tarte aux Pommes

If the apples are not organic, it’s best to peel them to avoid the concentrated residues of pesticides.) juice of 1/2 lemon 1/4 cup packed, pitted medjool dates (vegan sugar may be used) 1/4 cup…

What Vegans Eat – Day 1642

First Meal: I went shopping for fruit across the street from our apartment building and found some avocados that were reasonably priced. We made a favorite meal, beans, Guacamole, Sweet Potatoes and Romaine Lettuce Salad. It’s got everything you need.   For dessert we had organic Red Grapes.   Second Meal: Later in the evening…

What Vegans Eat – Day 1641

First Meal: Today’s first meal is a simple one, leftover Oatmeal and slice Oranges. These oranges are like candy, so sweet and juicy.   Second Meal: We have not gotten back into a groove yet since we came home from California. We’ve picked up a few groceries but the refrigerator and pantry are not stocked…
