Wow, this cook book, "Vegan with a Vengeance" is really something special! I just had the Curry Split Pea Soup last night, and it was great! Having it for lunch today and dinner again tonight!
I'm a big soup fan, so I'm going to be trying the black bean and corn chipolte stew tonight.
So far this recipe book is full of great ideas. I'm trying the stuffed zucchini and the tofu dill salad this week end as well.
On a side note. I have discovered that Tofurkey is actually pretty good when you spice it up a bit on your own. As well, make your own mushroom gravy instead of getting the one that comes with it. Its much better, less watery, and you can thicken it up a bit. I personally love mushrooms (they are a food group!) so I put several different kinds of mushrooms in it as well. But shitakes are my favorites!
If you happen to be by a meijers grocery store, stop by the health food section and get some Vanilla Chai Latte in the beverage area. Getting your protein never tasted so perfect!
One final note. New studies show that vegetarian and vegan diets tend to cause your brain to shrink. This is due to a b12 deficiency. I'm sure you all already knew this, but don't forget to take b12 supplements OR makes sure you are eating enough nuts and other foods high in b12. Its extremely important to brain growth and development.
