Vegan Recipes

I'm always collecting new vegan recipes (and vegan recipies :D why do I always misspell that?). I have a shelf full of vegan cookbooks, and folders full of vegan recipes given to me by friends and downloaded from the web. I'm usually a pretty good meal planner. I usually have a pantry stocked full of everything you need to make a great vegan dish - chickpeas, lentils, grains, greens and dozens of spices. But sometimes ... sometimes I take a look at the recipe for the meal that I have planned, and I'm missing some key ingredient. Ughh. Frustration. Then I'm faced with a shelf of cookbooks and folders, or its back to rice and beans ... again.

Some people are amazing cooks. They can just go to their pantry, and instantly, a recipe forms in their mind that only uses the ingredients in front of them. I wish I could do that. I really wish I could do that. So I'm starting this blog.

The idea is to find a way to put together a great vegan recipe with whatever is in the pantry and whatever is in the fridge right now. I know that, together, we'll find a way to do just that.
