Dear Friends,

Being vegan is an increasingly popular choice for people concerned about the plight of animals, the environment and their own health. Luckily, Care2 has lots of great vegan recipes so your choice doesn't have to get in the way of your quest for something good to eat!

These vegan, fruit and nut cookies are full of texture, just slightly sweet but super delicious, from the Tassajara Zen Mountain Center. Tassajara is a legendary Buddhist monastery set deep in California's Ventana Wilderness and is famous for its healthy gourmet vegetarian cuisine and their mixed dream cookies.

Vegan Mixed Dream Cookies

A little milk with those cookies? Wait, you don't drink milk. So read up on non-dairy alternatives such as milk made from soy, hemp, oat, rice and more!

Milk Alternatives

OK, so this veggie burger recipe isn't strictly vegan but it can be if you omit the cheese and replace the egg with a homemade flaxseed egg substitute. This is a luscious combination of sweet beets, carrots and lots of toasty nuts and seeds, and it's baked in the oven instead of fried.

So what's this you say about a flaxseed egg substitute I can make at home? This is a great vegan trick for baking, but you don't have to be vegan to benefit from this great substitution. Flaxseeds are a nutritional powerhouse and sneaking some into baked goods is an easy way to get some of their wonderful nutrients into your diet.

Happy eating!
