Celebrity chefs who show the vegan love are always welcome in the kitchen!

Wolfgang Puck and Ellen DeGeneres got together to make a vegan pizza piled high with local vegetables from a farmer’s market.

Puck is a regular at the farmer’s market and Ellen said that it’s “important to support farmer’s markets” while Puck added “local farmers are really the best,” while getting cheers from the crowd.

Besides supporting local economy and getting fresher ingredients, think of all the fuel you help save by not picking up produce that crosses more lines than rings in an onion.

Watch Ellen and Puck create pizza that’s not only vegetarian, but vegan.

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, November 10th, 2009 in Meatless Mouthful, TV Hosts.

23rd Annual Genesis Awards - Press Room

“I personally chose to go vegan because I educated myself on factory farming and cruelty to animals, and I suddenly realized that what was on my plate were living things, with feelings. And I just couldn’t disconnect myself from it any longer. I read books like “Diet for a New America” and saw documentaries like “Earthlings” and “Meet your Meat,” and it became an easy choice for me.”

“If you choose to educate yourself, it’ll be an easy choice for you, too. Click here to take a look at a variety of reasons for living a vegan life.”

—-Ellen DeGeneres, on her television show website, where she not only shares her reasons for going veg, but gives videos of cooking demonstrations, recipes, examples of plant based proteins and more to help her fans learn about the diet and lifestyle.

It’s easy to see why this woman won favorite vegetarian celebrity.

Ellen DeGeneres Favorite Vegetarian Celebrity VegNews Poll

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, October 16th, 2009 in TV Hosts.

36th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards

The annual VegNews Veggie Awards winners will be announced in the November/December holiday issue of the magazine coming out any day now.

Green gossip website Ecorazzi.com was able to get a sneak peek at this year’s winners and Ellen DeGeneres was chosen as favorite vegetarian celebrity by VegNews readers.

Ecorazzi’s take:

“We called this one back in June in our Top 5 Vegan Celebrities of 2009 — which was odd, because the year was only half-over and it would have been pretty embarrassing if she’d started taking diet tips from Hillary Swank.”

Will Ellen celebrate the award with a bellyful of her favorite vegan tacos?

2007 Projekt Revolution Tour

Fred Mascherino took a moment to Tweet his love for breakfast food at the Chicago Diner.

“Vegan French toast the The Chicago Diner- kickin’ ass!”

Chicagoans know Chicago Diner has the best in vegan and vegetarian home style breakfast items like tofu mock egg scrambles, seitan sausages, and biscuits with vegan gravy.

And Fred’s not the only celebrity to order off the menu.

Ellen DeGeneres likes the Diner’s seitan hot wings so much, she had them Fed’exed to her studios in California.

Eh, yeah we know it’s not so green to fly food that far.

But hey, the food was vegan so it took some of the weight off Ellen’s footprint.

For a more environmentally friendly way to enjoy the Diner’s hot wings, take a train to the Windy City on a road trip and stock  up on meals like Sweet and Sour Tofu, vegan Chicago Style Hot Doggs, and Parmesan “Chickin” Caesar salad.
