Vegetarian Star

Chloe Coscarelli

“I have served an all-vegan Thanksgiving to the most die-hard carnivores and no one misses the meat. You don’t need animal products to capture the spirit and savory flavors of Thanksgiving on your table. I personally think that a vegan Thanksgiving is more exciting than a regular one — there’s always something new and it’s not just the same old spread. The plates are pretty darn clean when we get up from the table.”

—Chloe Coscarelli, vegan chef who won the Food Network’s “Cupcake Wars,” competition with her vegan desserts. Coscarelli is featuring several Thanksgiving recipes on the New York Times “Well” blog, which is publishing a vegetarian or vegan recipe every day until Thanksgiving. Have your family clean their plates of Chloe’s Harvest Stuff Portobello Mushrooms, Maple-Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Toasted Hazelnuts and Chocolate Pumpkin Bread Pudding

Britain’s oldest man turns 108 this week, reports the Daily Mail.

The Rev Reg Dean, as his name suggests, has been a minister and served as an army chaplain during the Second World War. He was also a teacher and helped start a male choir of which he is still the president.

When asked his secrets to longevity, he replied he had five secrets: “Good friends,” “religion,” “looking for the best in people not the worst,” and “being a vegetarian for 30 years,” but he couldn’t remember the 5th one.

Well, he is 108, you know.

Is Phil Mickelson having second thoughts about going vegetarian to ease his symptoms of psoriatic arthritis?

From comments made to the press, it seems Mickelson is either unsure if the diet is helping his condition or he’s afraid the turkey will get the best of him for Thanksgiving.

“I’ve been doing it for just over four months and I’m just having second thoughts,” Mickelson said. “I don’t know if it really is going to make a difference or what. So we’ll see. We can talk about it in January, and I’ll have a better idea — see how the holidays go.”

Instead of getting disappointed over how his lefty is responding, Mickelson should also consider the other physical conditions a vegetarian or vegan diet can prevent–like heart disease, high blood pressure and obesity–something his multiple burger a week habit will surely bring on if he returns to that lifestyle.

"Skinny Bitch: Ultimate Everyday Cookbook"

Kim Barnouin doesn’t think there can be too many cookbook authors in the kitchen.

During an interview with UK’s So Feminine, the co-author of Skinny Bitch and author of her recently released cookbook, Skinny Bitch: Ultimate Everyday Cookbook, said recipe developers and food writers should definitely pursue their passion of writing deliciously.

“When you find the thing that you are passionate about, go after it 100%. There will never be too many cookbook authors. I love cookbooks so much and I am always on the lookout for new ones. Finding your specific niche can help narrow down your book ideas and help you focus on creating your specific style.”

Fortunately for vegetarians, vegans and those looking to reduce animal products in their diets, cookbook trends have shown the market is welcoming this guidance with open arms.
