There are a lot of vegan cooking blogs out there. I mean A LOT. Vegan foodies have created some really spectacular recipes - gourmet meals that would wow even the most skeptical omnivore. But what if you're not a whiz in the kitchen? What if you don't know what tempeh, nutritional yeast, or agave nectar are? What if you don't like being "experimental" with your food? Maybe you just want to eat basic, wholesome, everyday meals that are familiar, delicious, and easy to prepare. If you agreed with any of those things, this blog is for you!
I am one of those cooks that almost never uses a recipe. I don't like measuring things. I don't often plan my meals, I just look in my fridge and throw things together. My mother, on the other hand, is the opposite. She often asks me for recipes, and though I can tell her what ingredients I used, I have no idea how much of each I used. I know, I seem like a pretty unlikely candidate to write a blog such as this. The reason why I'm writing it is because I want people to know that vegan cooking can be super easy and satisfying, and that you can make healthy meals from whole foods without spending hours in the kitchen. And also because my mom asked me to.
This blog is for all the recipes I never bother to write down, the ones that never make it to my other blog (Nourish Me Vegan). These are the things I actually eat most of the time (I love to cook, but I don't like spending hours in the kitchen either). They will be simple, familiar, and will be made with ingredients that even total vegan newbies will be able to recognize. Along the way I might even introduce you to some "Level 2" vegan ingredients that will help make the hundreds (thousands?) of vegan resources more accessible.
