Full disclosure: I’ve never had a crunchwrap before. I can’t remember the last time I went to a Taco Bell or other restaurant like that – not once since I’m vegan and that’s 10 years!! But everyone is talking about crunchwraps and I love crunchy food so I made my own at home. Making crunchwraps […]

Vegan Jamaican Curried Chicken
One of the things I like to do with this blog is check the stats to see which recipes people are looking up. Lately, the most popular recipes have been my Jamaican ones. Seeing that made me crave Jamaican food (I’m easy) so I had to make some for dinner. What I was craving was […]
Soy Curl ‘Shrimp’ and Cheesy Cauliflower Grits
Hey guys! Sorry it’s been sooooo long since I’ve posted anything. My blog was hacked! All of a sudden, I was getting thousands and thousands of Chinese emails in my TVW account and then the host took down my blog for security reasons! It took months and months to get it mostly fixed (there are […]
A Jamaican Vegan Feast
One of my followers pointed out that the Ziggy Marley web site where the recipes for my Jamaican Vegan Feast were posted doesn’t seem to be active. She asked if I could post those recipes right here on The “V” Word and I said you bet! My review for Ziggy Marley Organics was written back […]

Super Green Rice with Veggies, Soy Curls and Dr. Mercola’s Organic Greens

You’ve probably heard of Dr. Mercola; he is the health guru and best-selling author of many books on nutrition and health. His web site is packed with articles on health, nutrition and ways we can improve our lives and health. He also […]
Cape Malay Curry with Turmeric Cinnamon Rice
The other day I was doing research for an article on how to cook with African flavors. That’s one of the hot food trends this year and I couldn’t be more excited. I love the bold flavors of African cuisine and it’s so diverse from region to region, that I know there are a lot […]
Pumpkin Rotini with Mushrooms and Punk Rawk Labs Smoked Cashew Cheese
A scientist, a record store owner and a nutritionist walk into a kitchen…sounds like the beginning of a joke but instead it’s actually the beginning of a great company called Punk Rawk Labs. Punk Rawk Labs is a woman-owned, Minnesota-based company formed in 2010. It was created when one of the founders, Alissa, had a […]
