Vegetarian Star

Olivia Munn recorded an interview with PETA to accompany the PSA she did recently where she posed nude to protest circuses.

Munn shared what she thinks are the three best ways for animal lovers to get active.

“One, stop going to the circus. Don’t buy real fur. Don’t buy a dog. Go and rescue a dog.”

Sounds pretty simple.

Meatloaf is known to turn down meat, something which helped him shed a lot of weight.

The Daily Record is reporting the slimmer vegetarian often enjoys curry at his favorite Indian restaurant.

Curry, a dish made of spicy vegetables over rice, can differ depending on which region of Asia or India it originates from, according to WiseGeek.

Punjab curry, for example, involves wheat instead of rice while Malai uses coconut milk.

Regardless of origin, most curry dishes have the common ingredient of turmeric, which give curries their yellow colors, and many incorporate the spices of ginger, garlic, chillies, pepper, cumin and and coriander.

Zoe Saldana, who is currently starring in the film The Losers, offered her mother’s recipe for Moro de Guandules (rice with pigeon peas) as part of the Mother’s Day special in In Style magazine.

It’s always nice to take a recipe that calls for meat ingredients and easily make substitutions, and that’s exactly what you can do with this recipe by swapping the chicken bouillon for vegetable.

Rapunzel makes a wonderful vegan version with or without added sea salt.

Look for the recipe in the May issue of In Style, which goes on sale this Friday or jump here to get started now.

Heather Mills was the winner of Whitney Houston tickets after calling in during a radio contest.

According to The Mirror, when the DJ wanted to confirm if she was indeed “the” Heather Mills, he asked her if she owned V Bites, the vegan restaurant Heather opened last year in Brighton.

“Yes,” Heather replied. “Come down for a cupcake.”

Heather’s spokesperson said, “Heather entered the competition to win the tickets for an 82-year-old mother of a friend. Her friend is a massive Whitney fan and as it appears that the event is totally sold out this would be a good opportunity to really cheer her up.”

Tickets to a concert and vegan desserts.

Can a night get any better?

PepsiCo’s CEO Indra Nooyi is vegetarian.

So is the fact that she runs a company known for its sugar high and salty good times an oxymoron?

Nooyi told CNN’s Money that ultimately consumers have the responsibility to know when enough is enough and if they all exercised, obesity wouldn’t exist.

“If I look at our portfolio, I think you can classify them into three groups: “fun-for-you foods” like Pepsi, Doritos, Lays, and Mountain Dew, “better-for-you” products like Diet Pepsi, PepsiMax, Baked Lays, Sobi Life Water, Propel, all of these products, and “good-for-you” products like Quaker, Tropicana, Naked Juice, Gatorade,” Nooyi said.

So guess the idea is lay off the fun-for-you foods and devour the good-for-you ones.

Now, if only the vending machines would stock more oatmeal and Naked Juice.

Still, you have to give PepsiCo credit for making a huge change to its products seven years ago without adding the costs to consumers when it banned all trans fat.

Maybe in a few years we’ll see sodas sweetened with the less addictive cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup.

Nicole Richie Captain Planet

Nicole Richie recommended composting in the list of ways to save the planet in her Earth Day post.

Now, we bring you tips from a self-described “compost whacko,” a woman named Mary Beth Mahoney from Illinois who is Peoria’s first master composter, certified by the University of Illinois Cooperative Extension Service.

Besides keeping a list of what to and not to compost, Mahoney tells what you should feed the worms if you’re doing vermicompost.

Worms eat like vegetarians, so don’t bother stealing your neighbors’ burgers during their grill out this Memorial Day.

Find another way to make them stop eating meat.

Same for cheese, fish, bones, pasta and bread.

They don’t like their breath to smell either, so hold the onions.

“Worms don’t like onions and citrus, wreaks havoc with their digestive systems,” Mahoney said. “They do better with broccoli, lettuce and other veggies.”

Mahoney keeps her six covered 10 gallon bins of worm in her basement, but she also likes the bokashi compost method which commonly uses microorganisms, molasses, water and wheat bran.

Using these tips, you’ll cut back on your waste in more ways than one, as you’ll be buying less trash bags from the grocery store.

And the kids will like that, as Mahoney’s son said, “I don’t have to take out the garbage as often.”

Leona Lewis requested that no one eat meat in her presence when she interviewed with In Style UK for the June 2010 cover shoot.

It was also revealed that the singer is very particular about how her tofu is prepared.

“I don’t think I’m demanding!” she said. “I think it’s okay to ask how you want your food cooked. People just dramatise everything.”

No, the singer insists she still has those sweet girl roots and has never even gotten angry, except for a few times, like when someone kept trying to give her a business card to get her a fur.

She is in the process of designing clothing for her vegetarian fashion line, which she says she hasn’t had a lot of time to focus on, but it’s definitely still scheduled to launch one day.

Lisa Edelstein "Prevention"

Lisa Edelstein credits growing up in a Kosher household for the ease in the transition from eating meat to becoming vegetarian.

“If you’re raised with a food restriction, it’s not that difficult to have another kind of food restriction,” she told Prevention, according to That’s Fit.

The House actress is featured in the June 2010 issue, which goes on sale May 4.

She said she was “never a big meat eater,” but once had a dream about eating chicken that turned into a sort of nightmare once the parts she was eating turned human.

“But in the dream, I understood that it was actually miniature human legs and arms. My brain was connecting muscle and bone to another animal. Once I had made that connection, it just wasn’t something I wanted to eat.”

Lisa loves cooking non human and non animal dishes in her kitchen that incorporate vegetables like broccoli, string beans and avocado.

One of her favorite dishes is lemongrass soup, something she says works similarly to chicken soup, as it makes you feel, “really good when you don’t feel well.”

The next time you’ve got the sniffles, try the recipe out to see if it’s what the doctor should order.
