2019 Holiday Coupons

Hello everyone,

Suddenly, the leaves have turned, and instead of iced coffee, I’m reaching for a spiced latte. This year has been busier than most with many ups and downs. I’ve been meaning to get back to this blog, but the days keep getting away from me. Today I managed to compile a 2019 Holiday Coupons round up and review my coupon/ rebate app savings so far this year. I was worried that vegan friendly coupons might become more rare with the bankruptcy of MamboSprouts, but luckily, it seems like companies are simply pushing them out through their own email lists. There are several rare or high value coupons right now – from Alpha Foods (a new favorite of mine) to tried and true Beyond Meat and Amy’s brand.

Additionally, I’ve been using Mylk Guys, the new online vegan grocery store, to order all the vegan “dairy” for my household. The shipping costs are honestly quite reasonable. The items come packed in sturdy cardboard, eco-friendly padding and dry ice.  Mylk Guys carries everything from faux meat to cheese to health products or even sweets. Now I can order Primal Jerky, Uptons Chorizo, Just Egg, and Miyokos all at once! Fun fact – they have the largest selection of vegan cheeses in the United States. Get $10 off your first order by using my link!

Recipe Review: Vegan Wedding Soup

FullSizeRender

So this week I decided to adapt another recipe from Thug Kitchen: The Official Cookbook: Eat Like You Give a F*ck. (Read my review of the Chick Pea and Dumpling Soup here). I’m Italian so of course I’ve had my fair share of wedding soup. However, I don’t think I had tasted it since I stopped eating meat years and years ago. After enjoying this recipe, I can say that I missed that flavor! It’s warm, a little salty, and completely satisfying on chilly evenings.

The soup is basically a mix of cannelloni bean ‘balls,’ orzo, kale, celery, carrots, onion, spices, and vegetable broth. Simple as that! Below you’ll find my adapted version of the recipe, as well as, as my commentary on making this dish. Enjoy! 

Cheers!

Jocelyn
