After watching a fun McDougall M.D. episode (they are 30 minute shows shown once per week), we made a yummy vegan lasagna based on a recipe on the show. My daughters enjoyed making it! Ingredients: 1 package uncooked whole wheat lasagna noodles 1 package lite tofu 1 package vegan mozzarella cheese – cut however you [...]
Even more facts are in. Dairy products don’t even slightly help people lose weight. Not low fat, no fat, or high fat ones. None. Not a single one. Not consumed in moderation or in excess. Dairy products are not healthy in any fashion. In fact, as many vegans have learned, dairy products are actually significantly [...]
I’ve mentioned here before that in general my family does not use extra oils in cooking (we will eat vegan food at restaurants that has been made with oil, but we try to keep this to a minimum). We’ve found that oil just isn’t necessary for frying, sauteing, or baking. I will admit I purchased [...]
To be to the point, I’m a vegan food advocate. I’ve been asked several times now what I think of the raw food movement, so here is my response. There are many health benefits to a vegan raw food diet. However, the benefits can also be seen by simply converting to a low fat vegan [...]
As I received my “February 2008 issue of The McDougall Newsletter” a few days ago, I was reminded once again at how well thought-out and thoroughly researched Dr. McDougall’s articles are. Why the world at large chooses to ignore him, completely baffles me. If you only do one thing to improve your long term and [...]
I don’t like to make complicated meals. I love to eat them, I just don’t care to physically make them. All recipes on this site are very simple to make, lowfat McDougall style, and vegan. Here is a recent supper we had. Roasted Red Pepper Sandwich 6-8 red peppers (enough for 4 people) 2-4 slices [...]
I’ve had several people tell me recently that they can always tell who are vegetarians/vegans and who are omnivores in a crowd due to the people’s complexions. I can, too. However, I’m usually 90% accurate and they are usually <1% accurate. Does changing to a vegan diet affect complexion? The answer is an astounding YES [...]
I’ve been asked for my favorite sites with great vegan recipes. Here they are: Fatfree Vegan Site McDougall Recipes (you have to use their search to find specific recipes in their archives) Fatfree.com Site (both vegetarian and vegan recipes) Vegweb.com site (both vegetarian and vegan recipes) However, when I really want to make a particular [...]
Goat-sha-who-ga-lulu-huh? Say what? I don’t know how to correctly pronounce it, but I do know this Ayurvedic Herb is a gift from the gods for anyone suffering from kidney stones. If you’ve ever been in the middle of a bout of kidney stones or even a single kidney stone, then you know the pain and [...]
My family is vegan. We eat no animals and no animal products, including honey. Yet, we are modern vegans living in modern society. We don’t garden (we tried for several years, but all the plants died even with hundreds of dollars of care and water); if you can garden — WONDERFUL! I also don’t enjoy [...]
