There is no exception to veganism for a vaccine

The defining principle of veganism is that we do not exploit animals to our own benefit. Therefore, a Covid vaccine that uses animal death in its manufacture is decidedly not vegan. Religious groups love to use medicine and life saving measures as ways to circumvent their tenets. Such is the nature of religion. The rules only apply when they are convenient. But veganism is neither a religion nor convenient. The basic foundation of veganism is that human life is not more important than animal life. We have no right to use animals to sustain or save ourselves. A vaccine that uses animal tissue can never be vegan under any circumstances.

Green Pea and Tofu Puree Vegan Recipe

Peas have lots of protein. Tofu does too. Why not combine them for that much more. This is a simple, quick recipe to execute. Still, it delivers on flavor and nutrition. Ingredients 1 10 ounce bag frozen peas, defrosted 1/2 package silken firm tofu 2 tbls olive oil 3 cloves garlic 1 jalapeno, deseeded and chunked 2 1/2 tsps salt 1 tsp oregano I defrosted my peas in the microwave with a few tablespoons of water. I just used the bowl I planned to store the puree in when it was done. Loosely cover and nuke on high for 1 1/2 - 2 minutes. Just until the peas are barely thawed. If you want a gorgeous green color for your finished puree do not cook the frozen peas. Make sure to just defrost them. Also don't use canned peas. Fresh peas would work. Fresh peas would need to be blanched and shocked. Puree all ingredient until smooth.

Roasted Poblano Puree

I thought a poblano pepper puree sounded like a good idea. Turns out I was right. Poblano Pepper Puree Ingredients 1/2 box silken firm tofu 5 cloves garlic, chunked 1 large poblano, roasted, chunked 1 jalapeno, roasted, chunked 1 serrano, roasted, chunked 1 1/2 tbls salt 2 1/2 tbl olive oil 2 tbls white vinegar Roasting the peppers gives a smokiness that adds a lot of depth. There's some heat, but it's also creamy, salty and acidic.

Chocolate Power Truffles Vegan Recipe

These are a great little candy substitute. They're a sweet treat with some decent nutritional benefits. Very easy to make. Vegan Truffle Ingredients 2 cups quick oats 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1/4 cup peanut butter 3 tbls sweetener (sugar alt or real sugar) 1/3 cup plant milk or water 2 tsps salt Pulse in a food processor until it comes together as a chunky, moist paste. Add the liquid in increments. You may need a little more or a little less. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes. Roll into balls. Store in an airtight container and refrigerate another 4 hours at least. To let the oats hydrate and everything solidify. A sweet vegan treat that's easy and inexpensive to make. It's also antioxidant and protein rich. Keep refrigerated in an air tight container to retain the right texture and maximum sweetness.

Accidental Pita Bread

I have tried to make pita bread a few times by following recipes. All attempts resulted in good flat bread, but no puffy pitas. When I was first learning how to work with various forms of bread dough, recipes were extremely helpful in understanding both the finesse and mechanics of how to execute a variety of different types of breads. Once I'd gotten in enough experience from following recipes, I abandoned using them. I just enjoy it so much more doing it by feel and instinct. I also get pretty good results most of the time. But when I went to make a pizza type flat bread, I somehow accidentally wound up with pitas. Which is especially funny given that all my intentional attempts at pita were unsuccessful. My accidental pita, however, was awesome! And now I know how to make it on purpose for the future. It's surprisingly simple. Don't let those complex internet recipes mislead you. For some reason I decided to crank the oven up to 475 F instead of the 450 that I usuall
