What Vegans Eat – Day 47

Breakfast: Feeling very hungry and not very creative, cold oats with sunflower seeds, flax seeds and coconut milk hit the spot.   Lunch: When I don’t know what to make for a meal I start sautéing onions. I usually get inspired along the way. I ended up steaming Brussels Sprouts, made Polenta Fries with a…

What Vegans Eat – Day 46

Breakfast: I left the apartment early to mail a grant submission at the post office. On the way home I stopped in a supermarket that I never go in – Key Foods. We needed some fruit and I thought I would look and see what kind of organic produce they had. I was in luck.…

What Vegans Eat – Day 45

Breakfast: There hasn’t been much time for anything this last week or two, including walking to our local stores for fresh produce. Fortunately, we found GoOrganicNYC a few months ago who deliver and we get to customize our box every week. That’s where we get most of our green vegetables. GoOrganicNYC is also one of…

What Vegans Eat – Day 44

Breakfast: I was inspired after interviewing Jessica Nadel on Tuesday. We spoke about her book Greens 24/7 where she puts green vegetables in just about everything, beautifully and deliciously. Her corn muffins with kale caught my eye and I had to make them. I took our favorite cornbread recipe, added some chopped kale and the…

What Vegans Eat – Day 42

With the release of the third episode of the REAL Good News in Review, it was time to tell the world about it. I spent the day at the computer, creating art work for bulk emails, posts and tweets, and there was no time to eat! Gary was concerned and brought me bowls of food…

What Vegans Eat – Day 41

My objective for the New Year here at REAL was WORK HARDER in 2015. So far I haven’t lost focus on that objective. That said, at times my eyes have lost their focus, but not the rest of me. Yesterday was Sunday…I knew this because I saw the Sunday New York Times at the door.…

What Vegans Eat – Day 40

And just like that, the What Vegans Eat blog turns 40. Forty days and forty nights of good vegan eating. Are you getting a feel for how easy and delicious this can be yet? Breakfast: Early to bed again, like 2am and early to rise. We go to sleep thinking our project is just about…

What Vegans Eat – Day 39

Breakfast: There’s still quite a bit of post production work going on here at REAL prior to the release of the next episode of our webs series, REAL Good News In Review. We’re working on a special edition to submit to public television and we’ve doubled the content. Plus, we’re working on several fundraising shorts…
