If you have been following my blog, you already know that I am a total hash girl when it comes to breakfast. This was even before I kicked meat from my diet. Now that I only do veggies and fish, I am always on the lookout for a great veggie hash for breakfast. My recent visit to First Watch gave me one more hash to add to my list of loves!
While my family ordered large dishes filled with beef and chicken, I was quite happy with my colorful plate of split peas, red lentils, collard greens, and cabbage.
Since kicking my meat habit, I’ve only visited The Cheesecake Factory maybe once or twice. On both occasions, I recall ordering a fish dish. On my most recent visit, with a few gift cards in hand, I decided to go completely vegetarian, and I lived to tell about it!
Food poisoning the day before gave me a great reason to treat myself to a mid-week dinner out. I chose TooJays for my meat-free meal, and I’m glad that I did.
For my last day off from work, I decided to treat myself to a little Paris flavor.
I had the amazing opportunity to visit Raphsodic Bakery a few weeks ago. While there, I shot a great video and tried a few vegan treats. Check out a few behind-the-scenes pictures from my day at the bakery. To see the video, click here.
A great Sunday brunch at Hash House was just not meant to be.
There’s nothing quite like spending a relaxing Friday evening at home eating out of a container filled with Chinese food and watching some great T.V.
What better way to celebrate Earth Day than to eat food that promotes a sustainable community!
My birthday lunch at Infusion Tea started off great and ended even better.
Before leaving after a short visit, my mom invited my nephew and I out for a Friday evening dinner at Seasons 52.
A random Sunday afternoon with not much on the agenda is always a great time to sneak in a meal with family.
Free. Cheese. Tasting. Where do I sign up?
“Come for the food, stay for the people.” It was the perfect way to describe the sense of community that Vegetarians of Central Florida has come to provide for its members. Jenna Huber, co-owner of vegan restaurant 2nd Sun, probably knows this better than anyone. Since January, she has hosted the 3rd Sunday Vegan Brunch at her home where she serves fresh, home cooked meals to anyone who ventures into her yard. Continue Reading…
Although my absolute adoration with Caribbean food started with the beef patty, over the years it has expanded to include curry chicken, jerk chicken, oxtails, curry goat – each coming with a side of perfectly seasoned rice and peas and sweet plantains. There wasn’t a dish that I would not turn down.
I was still able to enjoy Caribbean food when I made the switch to a meat-free lifestyle a few years ago.
Owned by husband and wife duo, Steve and Denise Beumer, Earth’s Best Beverages is a less than 10-year-old company that sources organic wine and beer from around the world and sells it locally. Each Sunday, the Beumers and, at least, one of their 10 children can be found manning their tent at the Downtown Orlando Famer’s Market at Lake Eola. Check out the video above for an inside peek at Steve and I discussing organic alcohol.
