Vegetarian Star

“I am not telling people to stop eating meat and dairy altogether. I’m just saying come and try it one day a week, have a nice meal and do your bit for the environment.”

—-Heather Mills, according to the New York Daily News, on advocating being animal friendly and saving the planet. Heather’s new vegan restaurant, V Bites, is scheduled to open this week at Hove Lagoon in the UK.

Ironically, her ex  husband, Paul McCartney, is currently promoting his Meat Free Mondays campaign, encouraging people to give up meat entirely for just one day a week.

Heather Mills put on her overalls and picked up a bucket of paint this weekend to scrub and decorate the walls of her new vegan restaurant, V Bites, that will open July 4 in the UK.

She was accompanied by daughter with former husband Paul McCartney, Beatrice, as well as some friends.

Heather is taking quite an active role in V Bites. Besides scrubbing and painting the exteriors, she’ll also be a regular chef on Sundays, cooking her favorite veg dishes of roast potatoes, parsnips, and veggie gravy.

Heather said what will shock people the most is that the faux meats taste just like the real thing.

We shall see!

But if ” Mrs.” Swirly is already married…uh-oh.

Heather Mills will be serving a vegan soft serve ice cream at her V Bites restaurant, which opens July 4.

The vegan treat, called Mrs. Swirly, is meant to imitate the famous Mister Whippy variety. Heather came up with the idea after her daughter, Beatrice, had to miss out on ice cream while surrounded by other kids.

“When we were out I’d notice other kids got an ice cream and my daughter Beatrice would just get a fruit lolly and I thought I’ve got to do something.”

If you’re like most vegans who crave sweets, you love to get your ice cream on as often as possible.

But if you don’t live in the UK near Heather’s restaurant, there are plenty of store bought varieties to satisfy your dairyless craving from Chicago Soy Dairy’s Temptation brands to Turtle Mountain’s So Delicious to Rice Dream.

Heather Mills‘ vegan restaurant in the UK, V-Bites, is set to open next month and Heather’s been running her vegan butt off trying to get everything ready, especially the menu.

Heather says one thing that might surprise meat eaters is that the substitute meats she’ll be cooking and serving at V-Bites will taste just like the real deal.

“What is definitely going to shock people is the meat replacements,” she told Metro. “They have a real meat taste to them.”

Fake meats come in handy for those who went veg for reasons other than disliking the taste of meat.

And there’s certainly no shortage of varieties to choose from: fake turkey, chicken, bacon, even gourmet creations like faux chicken cordon blue.

What’s your favorite fake meat?

Even though it took her almost forever to finally get her vegan restaurant off the ground, we’re learning more and more about Heather Mills‘ plans for her diner, V-Bites.

Chef Heather will be making guest appearances every Sunday cooking her favorites for customers. Now that’s ownership!

“I’ll be coming in on Sundays, making my speciality of all the roast potatoes, parsnips, all the veg and gravy,” Heather revealed.

Mmmm…Who doesn’t like vegan gravy? Yum!

If you can’t make it to Heather’s place every Sunday, there’s tons of vegan gravy recipes on the good ol’ net, like Brown Gravy, Chickenless Gravy, and Roasted Garlic Gravy over at vegcooking.com. 

Vegan gravy goes great over seitan, biscuits, tofu, and veggies. There’s no need to wait until the Holidays to make it!

Heather Mills cooked up some tasty vegan recipes at the Brighton Foodie Festival this weekend. Heather recently joined Twitter because she said she wanted to share vegan recipes and “tell it exactly like it is,” and that’s exactly what she did when she spoke about veganism at the festival.

“They just think that it’s boring nut roasts and lots of hippy people who they think haven’t washed for months but they do, but that’s not what being vegan is about,” Heather said, according to the UK Daily Mail.

“It’s about being animal friendly, saving the environment and the planet. The biggest contributor of global warming is the consumption of meat and dairy, but of course they are not going to tell you that.”

Chef Heather (yes, we can officially call her that, now) gave audience members samples of leafy green and soy beefy stir fry, creamy sweetcorn chowder, and creamy nut korma with faux chicken.

The dishes were just a taste of what Heather plans to put on the menu at V-Bites, her new vegan restaurant in the UK.

If you live near Brighton in England, you have it made this weekend as visiting the Foodie Festival will be like going to the grocery store and getting samples on every aisle.

Heather Mills will be giving visitors a taste of what they’ll receive once her new vegan restaurant, V-Bites, opens. She might also be sharing some dirty secrets of her ex, Paul McCartney.

“Audience members will be able to chat to the chefs, so it should be an interesting preview of what she plans to do with her new venture. Not to mention a little insight into what Paul used to get for his tea,” said one Brighton, local, according to hellomagazine.com.

Vegan food and ex gossip? A Saturday couldn’t get any better.

Heather will be sharing the kitchen with other  local chefs, including Sussex chef of the year, Ben Goldsmith.

Heather Mills just dropped the V word.

She announced recently that the name of her new vegan restaurant housed in an old fish eatery will be named “V-Bites,” which we can only assume is short for Vegan Bites.

After hearing what Mills plans to incorporate into V-Bites, it sounds if Paul McCartney’s ex wants a restaurant and learning center all rolled into one.

The restaurant will feature several rooms, including an interactive center where children can learn about fruits and vegetables through touch screen programs on a computer.

“It’s for everybody,” she said, according to theargus.co.uk. “It will be very family orientated during the day but it will be for all ages. My grandmother lived here for 38 years so I really want it to be somewhere elderly people can go as well.”

“It is going to be really funky, with nice music and ambiance and good staff.”

We’re thrilled that Heather’s plans are finally coming to fruition, but we hope she’s not getting in over her head. In addition to the restaurant and learning center, she wants an outdoor ice rink in the winter. And we thought this was just going to be a restaurant, not a mall. Perhaps it’s her way of encouraging exercise as well as healthy eating.

But all is good in the land of vegan food, so we’ll be cheering for Heather long after she opens her doors for business.
