Gardein Skillet Meals For Two: Chick’n Fiesta
Gardein recently released a new line of products, “Skillet Meals: Meatless Meal for Two!” I’m not a big fan of processed, frozen food, and I try to limit my intake of faux meats and cheeses. But, when I saw four varieties of these new Skillet Meals at my local Charlotte Harris Teeter (Morrocroft, aka The Taj… Read More ›

Product Review: Amy’s Split Pea Soup
It’s a lovely summer we’re having this winter! After Charlotte’s typically chilly January, February brought us temps in the 70’s – even the upper 70’s – almost every day, with some cooler nights. I believe the change from warm to cold, and alternating between heat and air conditioning, plays a part in all the colds… Read More ›

Product Review: Trader Joe’s Chicken-less Strips
Trader Joe’s Chicken-Less Strips. They’re cheap, but are they tasty? And can you chew them?

Product Review: Gardein Fishless Filets

Maybe I’ve been living under a vegan rock, but until recently – when Amy’s Kitchen sent me a box of soup and chilis and a few coupons – I didn’t even realize Amy’s made canned goods! (With BPA-free liners, yet!) I must admit Amy’s canned soups and chilis have become big favorites of mine during Charlotte, NC’s unseasonably… Read More ›

Things I Didn’t Know About Amy’s Kitchen
It was a bitterly cold winter evening in February. I’d worked late. My head was aching and my eyes were burning from staring at financial reports all day. I had no idea what I was going to make for dinner and I didn’t feel like cooking. I took my dog for a walk and at… Read More ›

Product Review: Tofurky Pepperoni Pizza Pockets
Tofurky has recently come out with a new line of vegan pocket sandwiches – including Turk’y Broccoli Cheddar Pockets, BBQ Chick’N Pockets, and these Pepperoni Pizza Pockets. Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. Look at the pizza pockets on the packaging – the gooey cheese, the thick, rich sauce oozing out of the… Read More ›
