It is a common misconception that veganism is a deprivation or limiting lifestyle.  On the contrary!  Being vegan enriches ones life in ways you could not imagine.
  • By avoiding and not ingesting animal products, you experience a lighter feeling in your body because you are not supporting cruelty or consuming violence.
  • Vegans enjoy vibrant health, maintain a healthy weight and many report feeling a deeper connection to the natural world and having greater compassion.
  • You will enjoy profound health benefits on a plant based diet as endorsed by Cornell University, The American Dietetic Association, and many other reputable health experts who state that vegetarians have lower rates of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, and other health problems.

These delicious homefried potatoes are great for breakfast, or any time of day. Serve them with applesauce or try them with black bean chili and salsa!

3 russet potatoes, scrubbed
1 onion, thinly sliced
4 tsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp paprika or chili powder
5-6 cherry tomatoes, cut into quarters (optional)
2 green onions, thinly sliced (optional)

Cut the unpeeled potatoes into 1/2 - inch cubes and steam them until just tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Heat 1/2 cup of water in a large non-stick skillet and add the onions. Cook, stirring frequently, until the water has evaporated and the onions begin to stick to the pan. Scrape the pan as you add another 1/2 cup of water, then cook until the onions once again begin to stick. Repeat this process until the onions are very brown and sweet. This will take about 15 minutes. Add the diced potatoes and sprinkle with the soy sauce, black pepper, and paprika or chili powder. Cook, turning gently with a spatula, until the potatoes are golden brown. Garnish with cherry tomatoes and green onions if desired.
