Vegan Mofo 2012 #8 Vega Energy Bar Review


VEGA ENERGY BARS


I love love love these things. If you're away from home and don't have any vegan resources nearby, this bar will make you feel like you've just eaten a grand meal full of revitalizing nutrients. All of a sudden you're not starving, you've got more energy, and you can take on the rest of the day. Recently I went on a day-trip and the place that I went to didn't have much for vegans to choose from (MAYBE I could have found a salad somewhere...) and the Energy bar saved my life (at least, that's how it felt!). Anyway, I've only tried the berry flavor and I love it. They're chewy and flavorful but if you like a bit of crunch (as my boyfriend does) then bring a trailmix or a few nuts with you to eat along with the bar. If you haven't tried it, DO IT. I plan on going on a hiking trip soon and of course these will be in my pack!

Vegan MoFo 2012 #7! Field Roast Celebration Loaf Stew!




Today I decided to try this Field Roast Celebration Loaf and I'm so glad I did! It has no soy and is full of nutrients and tastes amazing. I even tried it cold and it would make the best sandwiches. It has a texture similar to turkey. To see what I'm talking about and to find it near you, click here.

What I did was throw it in a glass dish and baste it with some day-old home made soup. I put it in the oven at 350 degrees for about 20-30 minutes (as per the directions) and when it came out it was the perfect fall stew! Give it a try, it's completely worth the cost ($6-$7) and I could barely eat two slices so it will go a long way. Hope you enjoy it!
