I'm vegan and often get the question: What do you eat? Hopefully this blog can answer that.
My goal is to show that being vegan is possible and can be inexpensive. It can also be really expensive - just like any person's dietary preference/needs. I also really enjoy showcasing both chain and independent restaurants with vegan options as well as products that are vegan.

Spinach Florentine Ravioli with Brussels Sprouts, Mushrooms, and Onions
This was lunch today. So fulfilling.
The ravioli is indeed vegan, from Rising Moon Organics.
This is a luxury purchase for us, since it's a bit expensive for a very small amount. However, it is a treat to have frozen ravioli that we can make really easily.
The sauce is good old Newman's Own Cabernet Marinara, and it's topped with Parma! Vegan Parmesan, a deliciously addictive parmesan alternative. It's nutritional yeast based, with walnuts and sea salt as the only other ingredients. Another luxury item since it is also quite expensive.
On the side, I sauteed 40g of onion, 90g of brussels sprouts, and 41g of mushrooms in a small pan with some salt and one or two sprays of the canola cooking spray.
Another picture for good measure:
