Happy World Vegan Day!

Hi everyone! Today is a day to celebrate being vegan and living a life of compassion and love. There are many reasons to be vegan and I'd like to point out a few of the reasons I'm passionate about.

1. Meat is murder.
I'm a pacifist and I truly believe that harming creatures in any way makes a mark on our souls. Save a life by not eating it!

2. Save the earth.
I love trees and hiking in the mountains. I'm always saddened by the destruction of our forests and the beauty of nature that is snuffed out by clear cutting for animal agriculture.

3. Save yourself.
There have been numerous studies showing the ill effects of consuming animal products on the body. But I know that I am healthier and happier eating and living this way without the need for scientific studies. I feel better than I have in years.

Tempeh Protein Noodles

I have been making large batches of food and eating them throughout the week to cut down on my time spent cooking on a daily basis. This is something I made the other day and love! Ingredients 1 package Edamame mung bean noodles 1 package black bean noodles 1 package Tempeh 1/3 cup textured vegetable protein 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter 2 tbsp Sesame seeds 2 tbsp kimchi 1 tbsp Chili oil 3 tbsp soy sauce 3 tbsp Bragg's liquid aminos 1.5 tbsp Sriracha Directions • Cook noodles according to package directions and drain. • in the same pot, mix the noodles with the other ingredients (it works best if you add the powdered peanut butter and tvp first so they are easier to mix once you add the liquids. • Serve with extra sriracha for a spicier dish, or add a fruit salad for some sweetness to contrast with the spicy saltiness. Makes 8 servings at about 310 calories

Welcome to my Blog!

Hello everyone! If you are here, you probably came over from my Instagram page. Awesome! It's great to see you again. If you didn't, welcome to the world of Marjorie! A little background on me and blogs. I have had a blog before and gave up on it around the time I started using Instagram. I was in need of a community of feedback, which that amazing platform has provided. Now, I need a place to post my recipes because I get more and more requests for those every day. Any sort of recipe book is a huge undertaking that I find incredibly daunting at the moment, so I decided a blog would be much more manageable. My plan is to post a new recipe about once per month. I'm a 27 year old singer and ballet dancer. I'm the alto section leader in my church choir and I am a Teacher's Assistant at a ballet studio, where I work with all ages of girls and boys. I became a vegan over 3 years ago and I transformed my sad little Instagram into a food post page and the res...
