Dark chocolate, brown rice, tempeh

5. Fondest food memory from your childhood?
Being at my great grandmother's house and my grandfather's cabin which are both in the woods of WV. My great grandmother always let me help her in the kitchen (making food I would never touch now) but it gave me a lot of good times with her while she was here. We also would have holiday meals at my papas cabin and all the family would be there.

6. Favorite vegan ice cream?
Chocolate Peanut Butter Coconut Bliss. It has 5 ingredients, is free of soy, and made with agave. Yummmm. I warn you that you can taste the coconut milk in it so avoid if you don't like coconut.

7. Most loved kitchen appliance?
Aroma rice cooker and steamer

8. Spice/herb you would die without?
That's a tough choice between cumin and garlic

You can't beat homemade apple butter, in my opinion

Oatmeal raisin cookies

11. Seitan, tofu, or tempeh?
Tempeh, for sure

Elwood Thompson. I wish I had one near me.

16. Name a recipe you’d love to veganize, but haven’t yet.
Chicken/tuna salad. There's so many recipes out there I need to just go ahead and do it. I posted the tempeh salad wraps from Little House of Veggies and it's tempting but I've held off mostly because I've never tried vegenaise and I'm afraid of it haha. Maybe I need a recipe that doesn't use it or uses very little

Love Veggies and Yoga
Vegan MoFo (now that it's happening)

I like a lot of different ones I've tried but my staple chocolate bar is Endangered Species dark chocolate with almonds & cranberries
