ReplyDeleteI love lettuce-less salads! That definitely looks like a good one that we'll need to try soon.
ReplyDeleteWow, fantastic looking salad! I love bean-nut combinations too.
ReplyDeleteWow -- all of the food on your page looks fantastic! I just bought my own copy of Veganomicon, so I may just have to try that soup! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds super simple and delicious! PLus, so many variations are possible....
ReplyDeleteYay for veganmofo! Great minds must think alike because I made a 3 bean salad last night- mine was nowhere nearly as colorful as yours, though!
ReplyDeleteI really do want to live at your house.....how about a Vegan Bed and Breakfast?????????????
ReplyDeleteThat looks incredibly healthy. That's the kinda meal I'd eat after feeling guilty about scarfing down a whole bag of potato chips!
ReplyDeleteThat DOES look like a superb way to get extra protein!
