Thursday Post - 'Humane meat' myths!!

26/1/2015

0 Comments

 
When speaking to animal eaters, instead of them accepting that eating dead animals is horrific and inhumane, or the other countless reasons not to eat dead animals, I am quite often strung the line of 'Yea, but I buy humane meat, cage-free, grass-fed, local, organic etc, they have a good life'.

Its still horrific and its still inhumane. No ifs, no buts!!

Lets put them in the scenario that farmed animals are. They are forced to live in slavery in a large fenced off area, lets call it a farm.  Their fed organic feed too. They live like this for only 2 years. Then someone impregnates them if they're female and steals their child, then takes their milk, or kills them because someone wants a jacket, or a snack.

Then is that humane meat, cage-free, grass-fed, local, organic etc? Its time to wake up.


What if it was them that was in the place of the animals?

My creation is below, and the Viva! recipe can be found here,

Thursday Post - Cheap Homemade Vegan Pizza For Less than £1.50

8/1/2015

0 Comments

 

Ingredients
Pre-made bought pizza base – 50p
½ a carton of tomato, garlic and onion Passata – 35p (or chopped tomatos, or tomato puree)
½ a courgette
1 small onion
½ teaspoon dollops of ‘Zest’ Vegan basil pesto

 
Step 1.
Chop onions and courgette. Lightly fry for 5 minutes, till they start to brown

Step 2.
Pre-heat the oven to 175 °C/Gas mark 4/350°F

Step 3.
Spread a layer of Passata on the pizza base evenly

Step 4.
Dollop the amount of pesto you want

Step 5.
Add all the vegetables to the base, I try to get a nice spread. Then add to the oven. It should take around 15 minutes, but check after 10 minutes.



*You can add anything you like to the pizza as topping, pineapple, Vegan cheese, mustard, chilies, olives, sundried tomatoes, boiled and sliced potatoe, aubergine, kale, spinach, red onions, etc.

**If you use Vegan Cheese put it on after the Passata.

*** Its even cheaper to make your own pizza bases - recipe here -www.simpleveganrecipes.co.uk/recipes/vegan-pizza-recipe.html

Thursday Post - Vbite Tasty Beanfeast - And Vegan Pates!!

7/1/2015

0 Comments

 
The great thing about going Vegan is that you don't have to change what you eat really. If you like sausages there is a veganized option, if you want cheese, there are loads of Vegan option, if you want some turkey, there is a Vegan option, if you want milk there are loads of vegan option, if you want tuna or fish fingers there is an option too!! And so many more. I have tried alot of them, and found the ones my taste buds like, so sausages I go for Linda McCartney Red onion and Rosemary, for milk I'll go KOKO coconut milk, for cream cheese I'll get creamy Sheese, and recently I bean getting into Vbites Beanfeast pate (can you see the pun?).

But joke aside there are so many option to try out, these are just the ones I go for, but try some out and see for yourself what your tastebuds prefer!!

RDI in bread!!? Burgen?

3/1/2015

0 Comments

 

Someone I know introduced me to this bread recently,

Eating 2 slices gives you 30% of you RI (recommended intake) of Calcium. And 2.4g of Omega 3 (ALA), the same as 120% of your RDI (Recommended Daily Allowance). This got me thinking of all the hearsay about vegan diets lacking protein and calcium. It also made me think about all the positive things that are achievable by making super nutrient dense plant-based foods. This bread company and others like it are creating some great ideas!!
