When I think vegetarian food, I think tofu. When I think vegan, I think … uh, some kind of grain? I definitely don’t think tasty.
But my very good friend, Shawna, is changing those perceptions with an ambitious project. Recipes that taste and look good — and are vegan.
Her blog, Would Rather Gather, features all kinds of reasonably easy to follow recipes and ingredients I never knew existed that substitute for animal fats etc. What I appreciate is she’s not preachy about a lifestyle or judgmental about meat-eaters (hello!), it’s all about trying out healthy, satisfying recipes.
Tofu this and sprouts that? Not a chance. Try gnocchi with mushroom and edamame brandy cream sauce or cupcakes with caramel cream frosting.
Anyway, check her out. And maybe she’ll send me some of that delicious-looking coco banana bread.
