*Vegan Sparkles*


A LITTLE BIT ABOUT MEEEEEEE

This is my very first blog (Facebook doesn't count, right?) and my seventh month as a VEGAN!!
(*cue dramatic music!! * DA DA DAAAAAA!!*)

Although I've been Vego for a long time, I LOVED cheese and didn't understand what the harm was in eating dairy. Those cows need to be milked, don't they?????
Now that I know the truth (look out for a post about it towards the very end of this blog), I know that it has to be Vegan for me.

This blog is mainly designed to share cool recipes and funny stories with my friends and family (and anyone else who wants to come along for the ride!) to help them understand that whilst I may be cultivating my tree hugging, mung bean hippie side, Vegans can be funny and sparkly and delicious too!

So hold onto your hats! It's sure to be a bumpy, funny, informative ride!!

eeeeeeeekkk, here we go!!!

The Best Ever Vegan Mac n Cheese! I came across this recipe while reading various vegan blogs earlier this week and loved the look of the healthy ingredients and the simple steps involved.  I figured it would be the perfect thing to make for our family currently visiting from New Zealand.  They are all Omnivores and have two small children, and what kid doesn’t like macaroni cheese, right?? I made a few variations to this recipe: I used fresh capsicum, onion and garlic, and was a bit more heavy handed with the nutritional yeast and cayenne pepper.  Luckily the kids had already had an early dinner as it would probably have too much of a kick for their little tastebuds, but the adults loved it!!  I stirred spinach through it towards the end and topped it with sundried tomatoes, and OH BOY was it ever the best Mac n Cheese I have ever had!!  And so healthy!!  It’s days like this that I LOVE BEING VEGAN!!!   :)
