Vegetarian Star

Gordon Ramsay may be trying to make up with vegetarians after a slew of negative comments about the diet.

However, an experience that occurred while cooking a vegan dish may make him even more bitter.

The Kitchen Nightmares chef nicked his finger while he was cutting vegetables on Ellen DeGeneres‘ show.

Gordon seemed surprised that a great cook like himself would ever make such a mistake.

“I haven’t cut myself in 10 years,” he said.

Grab the recipe for Spicy Vegetable Stir Fry containing fresh carrots, mushrooms and other vegetables sauteed in agave sweetened sauce, but don’t hurt yourself like Gordon.

Knives are sharp. Accidents happen. Be careful in the kitchen!

Ellen DeGeneres went on a mission to give up processed sugar to gain energy (and maybe to ease that sexual tension between her and Simon on American Idol).

Giving up sugar doesn’t mean giving up sweetness, by the way.

Try alternatives like honey, agave nectar or rice syrup to sweet talk your way out of the white stuff.

Before you embark on any sugarless  journey, check with your doc first!

Valentine’s Day is over, but if you share the love of all things vegetarian with your partner, the passion lasts 365 meals a year. There are several great vegetarian couples in the media eye.

Here are a few favorites.

Dennis Kucinich and Elizabeth Kucinich. Dennis is one of the few vegan politicians (or at least the few who come clean about it) and has been open about how switching to a vegan diet alleviated several health problems. Wife Elizabeth is the public affairs director of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, a group that advocates a vegan diet.

Zooey Deschanel and Ben Gibbard

Zooey Deschanel’s vegetarian platter is a little harder than average to create. As the contestants of Top Chef learned, Zooey not only does vegetarian, but needs gluten-free and no soy.  Ben better study up on the cookbooks when he’s not on tour with Death Cab for Cutie.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi

The couple decided to go veg together after a dinner date discussion of the ethics of animals in fashion.
The two were honored by the Humane Society for publicly advocating better treatment of animals.

Ellen DeGeneres‘ right hand vegan food man, Roberto Martin, demonstrated how to make vegan chili and nachos on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The recipe, which can be found here, uses lean Mexican flavored soy crumbles and vegan cheese for sprinkling, plus homemade nacho cheese.

The vegan chili sounds delish, but something sounds weird about the homemade nacho cheese, which is mainly made up of tofu and vegan mayonnaise…what the heck did chef Martin do with the nutritional yeast, an ingredient that was seemingly missing, but otherwise normally found in vegan cheese?

Maybe it was nutritional yeast taco seasoning Martin poured in?

Watch and solve the mystery yourself.

Once again, Wolfgang Puck will be in charge of catering the Academy Awards governor’s ball.

According to Eonline, Puck has been preparing dishes for everyone who attends for the past 16 years.

And when Puck says everyone, he includes the vegetarians.

“We have almost everything,” Puck said. “If somebody says, ‘I want salmon,’ we have salmon. If somebody wants vegetarian, we make it. It’s really just like a restaurant.”

Puck is no stranger to more compassionate food.

He made vegan pizza with Ellen DeGeneres on her daytime talk show, tossed the tofu for a party benefiting the Best Friends Animal Society and has spoken out on the cruel conditions factory farm animals endure.

Puck deserves a statuette of his own–one that’s delicious, edible, milk and butter free, caramel flavored…

Comedian and Celebrity Apprentice competitor Carol Leifer spoke with  Miami New Times when she confirmed the rumor that she really does have a copy of Michael Vick‘s apology for his involvement with dogfighting.

“Yes, we have it framed in our house,” Leifer said. “I had heard that the Humane Society had put it up for auction, and I thought this could be a double whammy of what us Jews call a mitzvah. I plan on selling it again when the time is really ripe, and I’ll donate the money again to another animal rights group.”

Leifer said Vick’s handwriting is horrible, along with his spelling.

Ouch!

Leifer shares company with another famous vegan lesbian comedian, Ellen DeGeneres.

“It’s funny because I had been vegan for about six months when I went to a taping of Ellen’s show. She had heard that I was vegan and was inquiring about it. Lesbians are really known for being animal lovers. Gay women always have so many pets.”

Ellen DeGeneres was interviewed by Katie Couric and she told Katie about her motivation for going vegan.

It all started with a little film narrated by Joaquin Phoenix.

“I watched a documentary, Earthlings,” Ellen said. “It’s inside footage of factory farms; 50 billion animals a year are killed. They’re in pain, treated badly, diseased, pumped full of antibiotics. I saw the reality and just couldn’t ignore it. And I’m healthier and happier.”

You’ve heard Ellen’s reason’s for giving up meat, dairy, fish, cheese and poultry.

What’s yours?
