Hemp has so many uses, it's such a versatile plant, for example Bob has a wallet made from hemp. I however I prefer to eat my hemp, which is why I was super stoked to try these raw shelled hemp seeds from Manitoba Harvest. Disclosure: This post reviewing with Manitoba Harvest was done through their partnership with Fit Approach. I received Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts free of charge in order to write a post, however all opinions are my own. Scroll to the bottom for a discount code and …

Vegan Meatball Sub
One of our favorite restaurants to eat at is Follow Your Heart. On our first few visits there I fell in love with the Vegan Meatball Sub: Italian Meatballs Smothered in a Hearty Marinara Sauce, Topped with Roasted Green Bell Peppers and Melted Pizzeria Blend Cheese. Served on a Toasted Multigrain Sub Roll. I'm not sure if it was the meatballs, the marinara, the melted cheese or the toasted bun.. but the combo is delicious! So when Gardien sent me some of their meatless meatballs to try I knew I …
Scrambled Tofu Recipe
Every time I make scrambled tofu and post pics on facebook and instagram I get messages asking how to make it. So today I figured it was time to share my recipe for scrambled tofu. This recipe is adapted from a Scrambled Tofu in the Follow Your Heart cookbook but I rarely stick to a recipe (ask Bob he'll tell you!). I go with what feels right, rather than weighing and measuring, and I tend to switch out ingredients depending on what I have on hand. Plus sometimes, recipes just seem way too …
Meatless Monday: 15 Mock Meat & Dairy Alternatives
One of my good friends texted me last week to ask for help. She's opting for more meatless meals in 2017 and wanted advice. More specifically, recommendations on products and brands that she should look for when grocery shopping. After a few texts back and forth I suddenly realized that this is something I should do a blog post about. Vegetarianism and veganism are growing in popularity, and plant based diets are becoming more mainstream. It's never been easier to switch to meatfree with all the …
5 Tips for eating out as a Vegan
Years ago it was pretty difficult to eat out as a Vegan, you usually got the choice of salad, salad, salad or the old staple... stuffed bell pepper. Thankfully times have changed, and the plant based diet is more popular than ever before as not only celebrities but athletes start to embrace the Vegan lifestyle. And while not impossible to eat out as a Vegan it can sometimes be challenging. My preferred restaurants are vegan or have vegan options firmly on the menu, however sometimes you have to …
Review: Beyond Meat Beast Burger
I know Summer doesn't officially end for another two weeks but here in the United States Labor day is pretty much the announcement that Summer is done and fall is coming. Summer and school supplies go on sale and Halloween and Thanksgiving items appear again. Rumor has it the pumpkin spice latte is already back at Starbucks! Labor day is also the last holiday before Thanksgiving and tends to be the final BBQ 'event' of the season, so today I'm sharing our recent experience and review of the …
Meatless Monday – Review: Cheezly
Continuing the theme of vacation posts I never got around to posting last year this week for Meatless Monday I'm reviewing a vegan cheese product I had while in England. One of the perils I discovered of traveling in the UK is the lack of vegan options in airports so for our return journey I decided to take a packed lunch with me. On our shopping trip at Morrisons I discovered this vegan cheese as the ONLY vegan option for rolls other than veggies so I decided to get some, eager to try the UK …
Review: Lotus Vegan (2)
It's been a while since my last review of Lotus Vegan restaurant and since then we've been again! I was hesitant to post another review but here we go! I was determined to try something different so I opted to veer away from the combo menu and order a dinner instead. Bob stuck with the old faithful of yellow curry but I wanted something different and boy did I get it! Red Nah! This is the noodle dish Red Nah. It's flat rice noodles with broccoli and house special gravy sauce and …
Review: Vegan Restaurant – Doomies
Recently we got chance to attend a preview screening of a film (Despicable Me2) and whilst we were in Hollywood we looked for somewhere to grab lunch and wouldn't luck have it but we were right next to Doomies! Incase you don't know Doomies is a vegan restaurant at 1253 Vine St, Hollywood, CA 90038. We attended a fund raising event for them when they had a fire and were glad to see them reopened and serving the delicious vegan junk food! Yup Vegan Junk Food! I love their little …
