When I first decided that I wanted to try more raw foods in my diet, Rupert was elated. He went out the next day and purchased a book that took me days to actually pick up and read. When I did, I was not sorry.

I love bean burritos. Even before reverting to a more vegan diet, I would eat bean burritos over meat filled ones.

I had a recipe for refried beans that was filled with meat fat before I got married. After saying I do, I had to learn how to adjust the recipe to make it vegan friendly.




Notes on this recipe: You should be able to find most of these ingredients in a health food shop or specialty section in your supermarket. You can substitute the bok choy with any Asian greens. Dashi is available in powdered form in many health food stores or Asian stores. If you don’t have Dashi you can use vegetable stock in its place.


On Monday I cooked for a few friends. We had a mexican fiesta. Cactus and Chayote squash tacos, refried beans, and spanish rice.

I wasn’t sure how they would take to the cactus. Not that it is nasty, but sometimes people are so not into anything different.


Last night I attended the premier of a movie that my great-niece is in. Yeah, I was a young auntie, so I have great-nieces and nephews.

Anyway, on to my adventure.


Vegan Family Living Sponsored the first Go Vegan For a Day challenge and overall it went pretty good.


Well I have been in LA for a week now and I am not too thrilled with the prices of the organic and vegan products.
