Share this I am a 28-year-old vegan with a stable job, a nice apartment, and conservative investments. Throughout my life, I’ve been told I look five years younger but act five years older than my actual age. And yet, I finished Michelle Obama’s new children’s show, Waffles + Mochi, in a week. That’s five hours of children’s programming I deliberately watched without distraction. It wasn’t just playing in the background (which is typically my version of “watching” television), my attention was completely transfixed by the food-centric content and loveable characters, both human and plush. The narrative isn’t completely vegan, but there is potential, and vegan or not, it’s a delightful way to spend an evening alone. This animated puppet show is on the vegan track in so many ways, but it got derailed in one major area. Here’s what you need to know. ....
Share this Can you improve on a classic? Yes, yes you can. The key is to keep the elements that make it marvelous while adding a dash of pizazz that complement not detract from a classic’s essence. In the case of the humble chocolate chip cookie, we’re keeping the ooey-gooey centers, gobs of chocolate, and crisp edges while tweaking the ingredients and preparation methods to create something truly to die for. From salty mix-ins to unorthodox pan-baning techniques, these nine recipes will take your basic chocolate chip cookie recipe to the next level. Ovenly 1. Add sea salt The simplest addition can transform everyday afterschool treats into bakesale-worthy splurges. Sprinkling flaked sea salt over the tops of your cookies just before baking will amplify the cookie’s sweetness and create a harmonious flavor balance as the freshly-baked morsel melts in your mouth. In our humble opinion, a chocolate chip cookie is not complete without a few flecks of salt. ....
Share this Convincing someone to go vegan can be an arduous journey. You can battle back-and-forth on the science, play the sympathy card by exposing them to the horrors of animal agriculture, or lay on the guilt by pointing to the climate crisis. While these are all well-intentioned tactics, we found the fastest and least combative strategy of conversion is to take them to Veggie Grill. Think of this fast-food chain as the vegan gateway drug. Your omnivore may not switch overnight, but hand them a Sante Fe Chickin’ sandwich and they’ll finally stop saying that vegans eat rabbit food. Whether you’re plotting your next vegan transformation or just wondering what to order for dinner, these Veggie Grill classics won’t do you wrong. ....
It’s a classic, but this recipe doesn’t involve cauliflower. These decadently meaty hot wings are made with seitan then battered and deep-fried for the ultimate buffalo wing experience. 5. by Veggiekins Buffalo-style foods tend to be placed in the not-so-healthy category, but this handhold proves you can enjoy the taste of buffalo without compromising how you feel. This recipe layers baked buffalo cauliflower with lettuce, tomato, and creamy avocado ranch-slathered gluten-free bread. Turns out that healthy compromise is delicious. 6. by Hot for Food This is a cheese-pull kind of sandwich that must be sliced in half. That gooey vegan mozzarella, thick-cut pieces of buffalo chicken, and toasted baguette must be documented on your socials. It truly is a thing of beauty. ....
, Atlanta, GA It’s more than just the name that attracts attention; the food at this Atlanta fast-food concept is equally headline-grabbing. Opt for the Chik’N Head which offers a sweet and savory sandwich experience the housemade crispy plant-based chicken is tossed in a spicy buffalo sauce, cooled down with a slather of vegan ranch and coleslaw, balanced with a bit of acid from a few pickles, and held between two slightly sweet and fluffy Hawaiian buns. As with all of its sandwiches, this handhold is served with a side of Slutty Fries. Konrad Odhiambo People drive from the city and even neighboring states to get a taste of this upstate vegan sandwich shop, which just opened its second location. While it may be difficult to pass up the plant-based renditions of Po’Boys, Reubens, and Cubanos, the deli’s version of a fried chicken sandwich doesn’t disappoint. Order the Wing Burger doused with your choice of buffalo or barbecue sauce then topped with shredded c ....
