Why this blog?

For me, being vegan is a continual journey. Every day I find out something new about the things I use in my ordinary daily life. I am interested in finding new ways to enhance the vegan-friendliness of my life through the products I use, eat, wear or otherwise consume. Locating vegan goods can be confusing, and at times, even expensive. Ultimately, I would like everything I use to be as vegan as possible, from dish soap to makeup, to the shoes I wear, to my hair care products, and everything in between. I would also like to share with you information about what I try and what I discover along the way, in the hopes that it may be useful to you. I am also open to suggestions if you have anything you recommend, or if there is something you have always wondered about and would like me to check out. Email me at veganinbellingham@gmail.com. And thanks for reading!

Amy's Tofu Scramble: A Convenient and Delicious Vegan Breakfast Product


Often it is true that frozen meals do not live up to the expectations one might have based on the picture on the box. Frequently a microwave meal will leave us disappointed, craving a home-cooked version of the real thing. There is a frozen meal that defies these stereotypes, however, and while I have eaten it out of convenience, I have also eaten it for legitimate enjoyment. 

A good vegan breakfast can be a hard thing to find, especially when on the road or visiting friends who may not be vegan. Luckily, Amy's breakfast Tofu Scramble can make such occasions easier to handle.  It is easy to prepare and tasty to eat. The tofu scramble has more flavor than many of the tofu scrambles found at restaurants, and also contains spinach, carrots and mushrooms.















And while you might think hash browns won't not nuke up well, these actually do quite well and are amazingly fresh-tasting and yummy. I can't tell you how many times I have lugged one of these microwaveable meals along with me on an overnight trip to a friend's or family member's house to eat the next morning and actually had people comment on the delicious smell is or how tasty it looks. Surprisingly lo-cal for how satisfying and filling it is, this dish also makes a healthy breakfast.

So the next time you are in a vegan breakfast quandary and you want something that tastes good but you don't really feel like cooking, or the next time you are going to be staying overnight somewhere and you don't want to worry about what to do for breakfast, grab one of the Amy's Tofu Scrambles and see for yourself what I am talking about.
