Vegan Breakfast Burritos


Homemade breakfast burritos are one of my guilty pleasures. They are super easy to make, inexpensive and full of flavor. Here is a simply recipe that I like to use.

Pancit Bihon (Vegan Filipino Food Part 3)



I made Pancit Bihan using gluten free rice noodles. 

Vegan Bistek (Vegan Filipino Cooking Part 2)


Pre-vegan we both enjoyed this filipino dish. I'm excited to say that we have come across this vegan friendly version that is even better. Again, this recipe is from Astig Vegan and involves the following.


Kang Kong Adobo (Vegan Filipino Food Part1)

Kang Kong Adobo

My boyfriend is filipino. I know one of the things he misses since going vegan is not eating as much filipino food. It was about time we experimented with some more vegan friendly filipino recipes. We made three dishes. Two of them were courtesy of Astig Vegan.

Shojin


It may sound like an oxymoron but Shojin is an all vegan sushi restaurant. They also have many dishes that are gluten free, soy free, and/or nut free.

Au Lac

Vegetable Pho

Au Lac is an Asian fusion restaurant located in Downtown Los Angeles. I was stoked to find out that a high end vegan joint was opening downtown.

The Springs


I recently went through a period of skipping the gym and eating poorly. Finally, I decided I need to get back on the wagon. I chose to start by doing a 5 day juice cleanse. During that time I also eased back into working out with light yoga and meditation. During this period, I spent a lot of time at the Springs. For anyone that doesn't know, the springs is a vegan health and wellness center. The offer yoga, meditation classes, wellness services, workshops, a juice bar, and a raw vegan restaurant.

Presqu’ile- Vegan Friendly Winery



We frequently go up to Santa Maria to visit my boyfriends parents and Presqu'ile is close by. I emailed them to ask a few questions since my boyfriend and I are vegan. We were excited to find out from Cameron that the wines are not processed with any animal products and that they sometimes have veggie options at the events. We decided to make a visit last Saturday.
