	Today's dinner: Organic, mostly... jasmine rice boiled in coconut milk and H20 - an experiment, a bit sticky but tasty adzuki beans cooked in sauteed garlic, onions, peanut oil, crushed peanuts, a bit of sea salt, and crushed tomatoes, spinach, still cooking...looking forward to see how it works, another experiment.

	I am taking the terrifying leap of starting my own company. It's called The Crispy Sage, and it launches later this summer. I've got the blog up and running, and I'm all over social media. I will be offering vegan meal plans, vegan cooking coaching, and a ton of other services. It would be such an honor to have all of you check it! Here are some details! YAY! The Crispy Sage: Website So skeery.......  |

			So, this was very tasty...I experiment a lot and want to share some additional info on this dish 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	I added first garlic crushed, scallions, the mushrooms, carrots coarsely chopped, cilantro finely chopped, spinach then added 1/4 teaspoon of raw organic honey... boiled the water for the angel hair, threw those in for 3-4 min then drained, cool H2O, back in warm pot with a bit of olive oil... saute was ready, and I added some of the angel hair pasta to these ingredients mixed and about 1min later it was ready. It all took about 30mis without rushing, except of course I was hungry. It was delicious and visually appealing, a must for me. Now with Laerkin's new website my experimentation with have some new ways of doing this vegan cooking. Looking forward to checking out her new website. The rest of the angel hair pasta I'll take for lunch tomorrow with a salad. Greco  |

			Green smoothie for breakfast, and lunch no salad today for lunch... 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Yesterday's angel hair pasta...I added first garlic crushed, scallions a lot, then heirlooms tomatoes coarsely chopped a lot of them, cilantro, spinach then added 1/4 teaspoon of raw organic honey...and today I added blueberries to this saute... boiled the water for the angel hair, threw those in for 3-4 min then drained, cool H2O, back in warm pot with a bit of olive oil... saute was ready, and I added some of the angel hair pasta to these ingredients mixed and about 1min later it was ready. It looked beautiful...and I enjoyed the blueberries in the saute...not mushy, but kind of crunchy and tasty. Tomorrow? Who knows...we'll see what I still have in the fridge. regards veggie lovers, Greco Greco  |

			Hi Veggie Lovers, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Ok, today I had an idea...why not put my heirloom tomatoes, and broccoli into my smoothie for dinner... Alright, so I took frozen organic broccoli, cut several tomatoes and steamed them...the heat brings out the most nutrition out of the tomatoes, and the broccoli...as soon as the broccoli was no longer frozen, and the tomatoes a bit soft I put them into the blender... 16oz of filtered H2O, 2 bananas, chia seeds, spinach, yes my blueberries, then the tomatoes, and broccoli...2 tablespoons of my green powder as well, blend, blend, blend...taste...delicious, a bit crunchy...and its pure love of the Sun, and Mother Earth for my body, mind, and spirit...Christ, I sound like a commercial...smiling, really satisfying, easy, cool in this Summer heat...not to mention nutritious. And I have enough for tomorrow's breakfast...enjoy your evening, Greco  |

			I am looking for a good veggie burger recipe.  I want something hearty like a "Garden Burger" something easy with nuts and gains.  I am tired of the black bean combos.  But I know if I can't put it together easy I won't do it.  Is that confusing or what?

			I'm vegan for 3 years now and cooking for my roommates since september (they enjoy their vegan lunch and rarely eat meat/fish in general since we moved together but I'm not forcing them to go vegetarian/vegan).  
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Sometimes I even forget that people eat meat and get really confused when I go to the supermarket.
