Vegan Disneyland – Updated!

soup

  Wow, is it me or has food at Disneyland improved?  Even when I was “just” a vegetarian it was next to impossible to find anything to eat that wasn’t…well…gross. So how shocked was I when I went to DLand recently – and had several decent meals. Thanks to my Twitter friends (follow Veggywood here!) I found meals that were actually beyond... Read More

I’ve been getting a lot of food samples sent to me recently, and I’m kind of all about it.  It seems like there is a new vegan product on the market every other day, and the variety of food items you can get meat-free is becoming mind blowing.  It’s impossible to sample them all, but goddamn it, I am going to try!

I made these for my very-not-vegan office and they were gobbled up.  Pretty simple recipe and basic ingredients, I’m due to make these again real soon. Ingredients 3 cups organic white spelt flour (I just used regular white... Read More

Screen shot 2011-06-04 at 1.08.57 PM

photo from quarrygirl.com (because she takes better pictures than me) On hot, sweaty days in LA, when the traffic is thick, the rents are high, and the people are bitchy, I question why I live here and not… say, Portland. Then I remember Scoops. I know I’ve said this before, but it’s worth mentioning again: If you live in LA and are a vegan, and haven’t... Read More
