Quinoa for lunch
The other day my friend texted me about his recent interest in clean eating, cutting out processed, MSG and GMO foods. He said he struggles with putting meals together and what to make for lunch. Continue Reading →
Veggie Heaven
If you are looking for Vegan Chinese food – look no further. My boyfriend brought me here on our first official “date” and, to be honest, I didn’t have high expectations because, well, the place was in…New Jersey. Continue Reading →
What should I eat for breakfast?
I have to keep in mind my inspiration behind this blog: those that I’ve inspired. My friends often text, call, or email asking me food or fitness questions. I’ve never thought anything of it, since I’m no expert, but I try to answer them honestly and from the experiences I’ve had thus far. Continue Reading →
Kajitsu
Apologies for all the restaurant talk about eating here and wanting to go there. A part of me feels like I hardly ever eat out, I’m always in the kitchen cooking, and another part of me feels like I can’t help it, I’m a New Yorker – I’m always out.
Review of Champs Diner
I know I’m posting this review fairly quick, but I’m so excited to share my Champs experience with everybody. A lot of friends wanted to take the trip with me after they read my blog post so we all set a Sunday Brunchday date. Continue Reading →

Easy Pink Bean Salad
This is a perfect post for how easy it is to make a quick vegan lunch. Some of my best creations happen when I am forced to use what is in my pantry/fridge vs. buying ingredients for a recipe.

Books I Read
When I first started becoming interested in fitness nutrition and my digestion I Googled “vegan athletes”. I knew there had to be someone out there that successfully thrived (no pun intended) on a whole foods plant-based diet. I came across a book, and then another book, and then another book. I admit that having an iPad has fed my addiction to buying cookbooks, but I don’t regret a single purchase. Continue Reading →
Champs Diner
I had an idea today. To create something, similar to Svpply – but for places I want to eat at. Not sure if it’s been done before, but I would love if it hasn’t and I start something really great. I constantly find myself wanting to go places, to visit restaurants and have random adventures. Frankly, I’m tired of emailing myself a link as a reminder… Continue Reading →
Gandhi Restaurant
Indian food is probably one of my favorite foods. Before becoming vegan I was very into Asian food (think Ahi Tuna and Salmon) but as a whole new world opened up to me about cooking, flavors and spices, so did new cultural cuisines. Generally most Indian food is vegetarian and most places are eager to accommodate as their flavor profiles won’t change much if they sub ingredients. I am lucky enough to live in Astoria, Queens where there are plenty of delicious vegan Indian restaurants. Continue Reading →
