What Vegans Eat – Day 383: Home Sweet Home

Breakfast: My flight from Panama landed in the Newark airport early at about 4:20am. Yawn. Things moved very quickly from there. The express bus rolled right up to take me to Manhattan and the F train, running local, in the morning appeared a few minutes after I descended into the subway terminal. When I was…

What Vegans Eat – Day 382: Special Travel Edition

Breakfast: It was my last day in Costa Rica and I still did not have one of my favorite foods there, Pejibayes. They are a relative of the coconut and grow in clusters on palm trees. Pejibayes are brightly colored red, yellow and green and about the size of a plum. You find them raw at…

What Vegans Eat – Day 381: Special Travel Edition

Breakfast: I was leaving Beth’s farm today. as usual I did not want to waste any food. I had a purple cabbage left that I chopped and steamed. I knew I would eat it later in the day, or during my plane flight back home on Saturday or both! I cut up the last papaya…

What Vegans Eat – Day 380: Special Travel Edition

Breakfast: My breakfast was already made the night before, Mashed Malanga with Caramelized Plantains. I liked it but could only eat about a third of what I made. I had Hibiscus Tea and Gary Null’s Green Powder.   What I really was in the mood for was Papaya. I took 1/2 of one and cubed…

What Vegans Eat – Day 379: Special Travel Edition

So with Brown Rice, Cabbage, Plaintains and Avocado I made a giant tasty breakfast bowl which I couldn’t finish. I worked on it through lunch. I also had Hibiscus Tea and some Green Powder with water.  …

What Vegans Eat – Day 377: Special Travel Edition

Breakfast: Beth was off early in the morning to teach yoga across the road to the Airborne Arts Flying Trapeze retreat people. We planned on meeting afterwards to go to the beach. I began with some Hibiscus Tea and a piece of Miracle Fruit. Beth told me that after you eat this fruit, everything tastes…

What Vegans Eat – Day 376: Special Travel Edition

Breakfast: The morning was spent running around the neighborhood by the hotel to get cash from my Costa Rica bank account and recharge my local phone. Each time I visit I have these problems and when I think I have it all figured out, the rules change. It always takes time to get settled in.…

What Vegans Eat – Day 375: Special Travel Edition

Breakfast: Two years ago when I last visited Costa Rica I grabbed some of Gary Null’s green powder before leaving for my flight. I knew that it would be hard to get the quantity of leafy greens I like to consume on a daily basis. I should have thought about it in advance and ordered…
