I grew up afraid of brussels sprouts, mostly because my mom never cooked these for me or my brother and sister. Â I would watch movies and the kids would always hate brussels sprouts so I never thought I was missing anything. I’m sure I smelled it from someone’s lunch box and then it wasn’t too […]

Curry-Kale Tofu Scramble (Revuelto)
Curry-Kale Tofu Scramble served w/ Avocado  I’ve heard so much about these Tofu Scrambles.  I visited Great Sage Restaurant a few months ago and tried their Tofu Quiche, it was phenomenal and from that moment I thought of which recipes I would like to try.

The Tofurky Roast Disappointment

Review on Gardein Crispy Chick’n, Amy’s Baked Beans & Daiya Cheddar!
I’ll blame this eating madness to Labor weekend and the bad weather forecast. Â The weather.com said it was supposed to rain so I decided to try a few products I’ve read are good, vegan and tasty. Â I told myself why not, and now I’m hooked. It took me 2 months missing cheese and to read […]

Hate Salads?
My first post from my iPad, hopefully this WP won’t drive me crazy. —– Salads were never something I looked forward to eat, my experience with them were either plain slices of tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and lettuce or heavy potato salads with tons of mayonnaise.

Trist 1st Post! – Capital Grille – Tysons Corner
I wasn’t familiar with Capital Grille so my initial thought was that it will be a semi-casual restaurant and oh boy was I wrong. I arrived at the Capital Grille at Tyson’s Corner and pulled up in the front where the complimentary valet awaits. That itself already made me feel like a VIP. I […]

Esta traducción me ha tomado aproximadamente 30 minutos asà que mis disculpas por los errores. No he sido autorizada […]
