Our BlogsCafé VegNewsPress PassThis Just In Our WebsiteVegNews.com Find Us OnFacebookMySpaceTwitter Back to Basics Ah, fall. While it's still technically warm enough to count as summer in most places, we know that autumn is just around the corner, with its colorful leaves and crisp air ready to go. If there's anything better than cozying up with a magazine this time of year, we don't even want to know about it. V in the News Timely ExposéA recent Time article gets to the root of America’s cheap-food addiction: the meat industry. Bryan Walsh candidly discusses the “food industry’s degradation of animal life†and the fact that one dollar can buy 1,200 calories of potato chips versus 250 calories of vegetables or a measly 170 calories of fruit. Considering all the vegetables cycled through farmed animals to produce meat, something is definitely wrong here! Prison CompassionThanks to the Vegan Prisoners Support Group, UK prisoners now have a right to vegan products. Soymilk, dairy-free yogurt, chocolate bars, and soy-based protein as well as vegan soap, shampoo, and moisturizer will be available to order from Holland & Barrett and Honesty Cosmetics. While some products, like cellulite oil, might not seem strictly necessary, VPSG has also ensured that inmates have access to more crucial items like soymilk and nuts. What's Hot on VegNews.com You know what's hip? The internets. Here are our top three picks for hot VN.com stories you should probably check out right about now.1.

Event Showcase DC VegFestThis awesome, yearly one-day festival will be held on September 12, and features fab speakers, incredible food, and plenty of perks. Oh, and maybe DC's mayor made a formal welcoming statement to all who are participating. Next stop, keys to the city! Gala Goes On!Despite having to evacuate due to the fires in Southern California, the Animal Acres Gala will be held on September 12 at the Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades. The black-tie affair will be emceed by Hal Sparks and catered by Madeleine Bistro, which means it's sure to be a blast. Fashion in ActionAs you probably already know, Vaute Couture makes veganism look good, and this month the indie label is pairing up with Mercy for Animals. Join the two groups in Chicago on the 14th, when $100 will be donated to MFA for every Bomono, Pea, or El style coat ordered. SnackFest ’09Hello, big fat vegan festival! There’s food and fun to be had at Portland’s largest vegetarian shindig, VegFest. Celebrate the festival's fifth anniversary on September 19 with renowned speakers like Kathy Freston, and tons of super snacks. We're just saying, Coconut Bliss will be there. Just saying! Get Cookin' Quinoa and Sweet Potato Timbale It's possible that we're pretty freaking excited about Chef Tal Ronnen's The Conscious Cook, due out next month. We recently got a copy in the office and have been feverishly passing it around, drooling over the gorgeous photography and incredible-looking recipes. Naturally, the best thing to do at a time like this is test out the 75 rockin' recipes, and this yummy quinoa salad is about the fanciest little thing we've ever seen. Serves 4 What You Need:For the quinoa:1 cup quinoa, cooked in vegetable stock according to package directions and cooled to room temperature½ jalapeño, minced1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, minced 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oilJuice of 1 limeSalt and freshly ground black pepper to tasteFor the sweet potatoes:1 sweet potato, peeled and ½-inch diced2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oilSea salt and freshly ground black pepperFor the dressing:2 tomatillos in olive oil, skins removed3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil1 tablespoon rice vinegar¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro1 teaspoon light agave nectarFor the tortilla strips:Canola oil2 corn tortillas, cut into ¼-inch strips1 teaspoon Cajun seasoningTo serve:2 avocados, dicedMicrogreens What You Do:1. In a medium bowl, place all of the quinoa ingredients and toss to combine. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, toss sweet potatoes with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes, or until soft in the middle and lightly browned.2. Lower oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, toss tomatillos with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes. Transfer to a food processor, add vinegar, cilantro, and agave nectar, and pulse to combine. With the motor running, pour in remaining olive oil in a thin stream and continue blending until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper.3. Into a small, heavy pot add 2 inches canola oil, and heat until oil shimmers. Add tortilla strips and fry until crisp and browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning.4. Place a 3-inch ring mold in the center of a salad plate. Fill with ¼ of the quinoa mixture and press down to pack the mold, smoothing the top. Place ¼ of the sweet potato pieces on top of the quinoa and press down gently. Top with ¼ of the avocado and press down gently. Carefully remove the mold. Repeat on the remaining salad plates.5. Carefully place 2 tortilla strips parallel to each other about 1 inch apart on top of each timbale. Place 2 more tortilla strips perpendicular on top of those. Top with microgreens and drizzle dressing around the timbales. Product Review Coconut Bliss Bars It's not often that a company's name is a fully accurate description of its products, but Coconut Bliss has pretty much nailed it. The recently released line of coconut and chocolate ice cream bars make us all swoony. Or, as one staffer said, "these are like soft serve on a stick!" Yeah, we like that. For the soy-free set, good news! These bars are deliciously devoid of soy.

Guest guest Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 There are already many signs of autumn here - about half the trees are turning colour, and there is that chill in the air morning and evening - and a certain autumny smell. Autumn is my favourite time of year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 The Vegan prisoners support group does a marvellous job here. Apparently they visit new prisoners to find out if they are getting the vegan food and supplies that they need, and supply them with toiletries etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 a tomatillo is related to tomato it is small tomato like fruit which is covered by a paperlike covering called a calyx. they are generally greenish, but can come in a variety of other colors. AFAIK they are used mainly in things like Salsa Verde and other mexican/latin american dishes. i've made different salsas and sauces with em in the past. heartwerk Sep 11, 2009 2:47 AM Re: September 2009 VegNewsletter The quinoa and sweet potato recipe looks good what is a tomatillo - is it like a tomato?Jo "Hobbes: Do you think there's a God?

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009  I love the variety of colours around this area. The tree outside the entrance to where I work turns bright red, and at present about half the leaves are bright red and half are green. The silver birches leaves turn a pretty yellow, and other trees turn various shades of yellow, orange and russet colours. It is beautiful. It's also lovely to go for a walk later on in autumn and kick up all the leaves :-) Jo - fraggle Saturday, September 12, 2009 2:40 AM RE: Re: September 2009 VegNewsletter the bay area? if the trees are deciduos and lose their leaves, they generally turn yellow and brown and fall off our oak trees are evergreens, their leaves stay on year round early fall is the worse generally because it usually is our time of highest fire danger.
