I posted the process of making this meatloaf, using Impossible Foods grounds, on my Instagram story last night and received so many requests for an actual recipe I figured I better get to it! This is sort of a hybrid recipe – I know some people use onion soup mix for their meatloaf. My grandmother,…
Growing up, one of the first things I learned to help my grandmother make is an Italian flat cookie called a pizzelle. They are made from a thick batter using an electric pizzelle iron. We would make these for each ‘major’ holiday – Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. We would also make them during the year…
Well Philly’s first all vegan food and beer festival, organized by Noshhh, Home Brewed Events and Eat Your PHL, is less than a month away!! Are you as stoked for this event as I am? It is shaping up to be a fantastic lineup of food, beer and merchandise vendors along with an amazing opportunity to win a vegan dinner for…
Summer weather is definitely here in Philly. The days are longer, making you want to stay outside and enjoy the warm sun! What better way to enjoy a beautiful summer day than spending it in a portion of one the best urban parks in the country eating vegan food, learning about plant based cooking and how…

I still remember the first time I ever had any food from Blackbird Pizza. It was during a screening of Vegucated in the summer of 2012 and Blackbird provided the food after the movie. They had several different pizzas and a chickpea ‘tuna’ wrap. This was just as I was learning about being vegan and I was excited,…
The Vegan Commissary has been one of my favorite spots since the very first time we ate there, just after their opening. My boss heard me talking about an all vegan restaurant opening in South Philly and how excited I was that such a place was going to be so close by work! The Christmas just before they…
This past Sunday was cold, rainy and very dreary. The kind of day you just want to hang out with some friends and eat comfort food. And what is more quintessential than Mac and Cheese when it comes to comfort food? So as luck would have it my wife and I were attending the very first…
Is there a better place to be vegan than Philadelphia right now? I don’t think so; the Philly vegan scene is really coming into its own in 2016! Everywhere you look a new vegan event is popping up! And I am stoked to report that the newest event is in high gear planning right now! This…
Flora has been on my radar for a while now so when my wife suggested she make reservations for my birthday dinner I was pretty stoked! We had reservations for Saturday night at 5:15 PM for a table of 5. My parents, along with my mother-in-law, were joining us. They are not vegan but keep an open…
