So I came home to not one, but 2 new vegan cookbooks. Amazon pre-order is the way to go when you want to give yourself a gift you'll forget about by the time you get it.
Just in time for the holidays Isa's new book Appetite for Reduction offers a whole bunch of easy recipes that are easy on the waistline. Jerk asparagus, eggplant dengaku, buffalo tempeh oh my!
In Color me Vegan Colleen Patrick-Goudreau invites you to eat the rainbow of the fruit and veggie world. Red-Beet Burgers; Orange-Carrot Fries; Yellow-Cashew Cheese; Green-Avacado Pudding; Blue-Blueberry Ketchup and more!
Yes, you really do need a new cookbook or 2...
Brea is vegan and most of the lip balms can be made vegan even though the normal formula uses beeswax. Mmm Candy Cane...
Sara makes the most awesome vegan chocolates and proceeds go to animal rescue organizations.
If you've got rugrats and are interested in cloth diapering, my friend Patti (who is also a serious scrabble opponent) has a blog called
The Clothspring and she's got a giveaway going on for some flannel diapers. Check it or pass it along to someone with rugrats.
And last but not least, the ever awesome River of wing-it vegan made my eggplant ballz from the last veggie conquest. It's on her
MoFo after-post.
Ciao!
Couldn't be easier and is really quite sophisticated and yummy. Bring this to your next holiday soiree.
