New book to test!

So, after testing brunch and cookies (well, I pretty much gave up on cookie testing due to my issues with face-stuffing), Isa posted the first two recipes for a healthy vegan cookbook. Low in fat, high in fiber and whole foods, and also ingredients that are easy to find and afford. It should be the perfect cookbook, as she says.

The first recipe is for Yam and Black Bean Soup with Cilantro and Orange. It calls for a cup of OJ, and the orange tasted so good in it, I garnished with a little fresh orange zest.



I plan to test every single recipe. I'll be making some good food, maybe losing a few pounds, and cooking all. the. time.

Also, I got a new job! I'll be working very close to home, I know the store manager, and I get a fat discount. I love my life. Things are definitely going to get more active around this here blog.

Megan: love your blog. The pix are great, the recipes look delicious and I love your comments throughout. You're inspiring me to think about cooking more vetgan foods--or at least to cook something :)
