Vegans Are Bowlers
September 22, 2014
Everyone knows by now that a "bowl" is a type of dish, or arrangement of certain food items in a bowl. I think it's a vegan thing. Maybe not.
Bowls are usually four or five elements, including some green vegetable, a bean of some sort, a protein, like tofu, tempeh, seitan or whatever, a grain or starch, and a sauce. It could be a dressing, or condiment, too. Whatever floats your bowl.
My bowl has steamed potatoes and broccoli, barbecue chickpeas, breaded tofu and a sauce I made in the blender with lemon juice, cashews and mustard. This method of eating allows you to put tons of food into your bowl and smother it in your favorite kind of sauce or condiment. It's a pretty genius idea, so I'm pretty sure a vegan came up with it.
Our fellow vegan mofo blogger, Cadry, from Cadry's Kitchen, had organized a Vegan Postcard Swap. All you had to do to sign up was comment with your name and address, and she assigned us all postcard buddies! I sent mine out on Friday and received one today! My postcard buddy was from California, and sent me some cards, stickers, ribbons and a recipe that she really likes! What a nice package of gifts! It was very sweet and I adored them! So Thanks to my postcard buddy and thanks to Cadry for organizing it!

ReplyDeleteyes! ha ha - I didn't even see this post when I went on about bowls in my last comment. Viva los Bowls! I did the Cadry swap too - and got some really special goodies... from Cadry!! I think I'll blog about it. :)
ReplyDeleteBowls are the best. They're really a case where the sum of the parts is so much better than each food on its own.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing what you got from your postcard buddy! I'm thinking of doing a round-up of things people received/sent. Do you mind if I share your picture on my blog?
How funny! The person who sent you that card is the person I send a card too! :)
