Restaurant Review: Townhall, Vegan Brunch!

FullSizeRender

Hello everyone,

Imagine, it’s a Sunday morning. You’re hungry. You don’t want to get ready and stumble around your kitchen to prepare a meal. So what do you do? You put some pants on and goto brunch! If you’re in Cleveland, there is no shortage of amazing places to eat brunch — even if you’re vegan!

I recently went to brunch at Townhall on W. 25th St.for the first time. Townhall is a popular bar and restaurant in a ‘hip and up and coming’ area of town, on the same block as the historic West Side Market. Their menu is full of designated vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options and includes a variety of local ingredients. As an added bonus, the restaurant is in an old renovated warehouse space and is warm and welcoming with open brick walls and a cozy patio!

Hello everyone,

When thinking of vegan-friendly cities, Cleveland probably isn’t high on the list, but many restaurants actually have vegan night! You know that one night where they serve multiple vegan options! I’ve compiled a comprehensive list of weeknight vegan delicacies you can find in Cleveland below.

Know of a place that has vegan night that’s not on my list? Let me know!

Cheers!

Recipe: Southwest Tofu Scramble

Hello everyone,FullSizeRender_8

There is a saying in my kitchen – Good food plus good food equals good food. We say this when trying to decide if we want to make a one skillet meal or keep all the ingredients separate. We generally opt for one skillet so there is a less clean up, and heck, it tastes the same anyway! This means we make a lot of ragouts, skillet means, and scrambles.

This week we made a super satisfying southwest inspired tofu scramble. We considered keeping the potatoes separate as their own hash brown segment, but then we decided to lump them into the scramble. Because, why not?! It tasted great. The tofu had a spicy, smokey flavor, and the vegetables were reminiscent of fajitas. Think of this as a meal every bit as tasty as tacos, but more socially accepted before noon.

Give the recipe a try and let me know what you think!

Cheers!

I recently made a hefty portion of summer bean & veggie salad to snack on throughout the week. This is one of my goto quick and easy lunch meals. It takes about 10 minutes to make and there are very few steps to the instructions! This is the epitome of no fuss vegan cooking!

Check out the recipe below, and let me know what you think. Also, what’s your favorite summer time recipe?
