Wide Mouth Strikes Again: 96 Moz-Inspired Mason Jar Recipes
From BakeandDestroy.net:
A lot has changed in the three years since my first book came out – but one thing that hasn’t changed is my complete and utter devotion to the Pope of Mope, Morrissey.
Moz has inspired so many of us to go vegan over the years, and this year, inspired me to write a new book filled with recipes influenced by his music. And bonus: they can all be prepared and/or served in Mason jars.
Recipes include:

Chicago’s Best Vegan Eats
From BakeandDestroy.net:
*Updated 2/27/2016* Believe it or not, Chicago has a plethora of vegan and vegan-friendly restaurants.If you’re a Chicagoan, or a frequent visitor you’ll find some classics on this list, but you might find a few places you didn’t know about. I’m writing this with the visitor in mind, though, so I might skip a few places that have a few (lame) veg options but aren’t really worth wasting your precious time at. I’m separating this list into:

According to Brandon Gaille, tea is the world’s most consumed beverage after water, and it is said that some form of tea can be found in 80% of households. With all the anti inflammatory effects of ginger brews and cancer preventative properties of green tea, it’s no wonder that people make it a point to have some tea in their pantry.
But for some, drinking tea is simply part of their culture and they won’t necessarily consume copious amou...

Vegan Chilaquiles Verdes Recipe featuring Follow Your Heart VeganEgg
From BakeandDestroy.net:
They’re real, and they’re spectacular.
A few months ago my booth at Green Fest San Fransisco was positioned directly across from the Follow Your Heart booth. The girls setting up probably got a little tired of me lingering around their table on the first day waiting for the show to start so I could buy four cartons – which is exactly what I did.
I can honestly say that Follow Your Heart’s VeganEgg is the simplest vegan egg I’ve worked with – just blend it with cold wa...

I’m not here to argue about Valentine’s Day with anyone. I think we can all agree that it’s a stupid, made up holiday, but after that, it’s kind of on you whether or not you want to try and make it fun anyway, or if you just want to crap on it. I’m with you no matter what you decide, as I am equally a fan of having fun and hating stuff for no reason.
That being said, I personally do celebrate Valentine’s Day because when you h...

DIY Vegan: Savory Egg Mix
From BakeandDestroy.net:
My copy ofDIY Vegan: More Than 100 Easy Recipes to Create an Awesome Plant-Based Pantryby Nicole Axworthy and Lisa Pitman is already becoming well-worn thanks to easy recipes like this one. Tofu scramble is a go-to workday breakfast for me, and this mix makes for an extra savory scramble. You can also add it to vegan quiche recipes and even French toast (also see my post How to French Toast Everything).
To make this mix, you’re going to need a few ingredients that ma...
