Daiya Cheese Coupon Giveaway!



Images from daiyafoods.com/

In celebration of my birthday week (and another part of Shinmas going by) I am offering two coupons for Daiya cheese products! One is for their wedges and one is for their delicious, easy-to-melt shreds which means that there are TWO winners possible for this giveaway.

Never experienced Daiya Cheese before? Daiya cheese is a vegan cheese that contains absolutely no soy, gluten, dairy (including lactose and casein) or eggs. It has the ability to melt and stretch and tastes exactly the opposite of what most people know of other vegan cheeses. There are six different flavors (three per each type of cheese) so you have a great variety! Any product you buy from Daiya will be melty, creamy and needs nothing but heat to get it to be so.

Here are some amazing recipes and ideas that utilize Daiya Cheese.

Day 11 of Shinmas

We have a bunch of great recipes for this one in the queue! ^^

Day 10 of Shinmas

Today we have a very creative article instead of a blog presentation. I was contacted by a nice man named Allen with this nice vegetarian article that I wish to share. This was the one thing that interested me the most on all of the sites.

http://www.parttimenanny.org/blog/how-to-encourage-healthy-eating-habits-in-kids/

 

It has a list of ways to get kids to eat healthier without completely giving up snacks and sweets - something that I like.  

 

 

 

 

Anything else that is found on this website is not in any way connected to myself, my thoughts or opinions.

 

 

If you want to participate in any of the days - here's the list!

Day 9 of Shinmas

Day 8 of Shinmas

Day Seven of Shinmas

Today's first post for Shinmas comes from "Oh She Glows" with a fantastically simple and delicious roasted tomato and basil pesto. Slather it on sandwiches, dress up some slaw or fold into your vegan cheese and bake with some nice pasta for a great meal. The roasted tomnatoes and aromatic basil are sure to make anything delicious.

 

"Oh She Glows" is a fantastic blog filled to the brim with beautiful photography and enticing recipes, it is also filled with a lot of heart. I've been a fan of this blog even before I started blogging myself and this recipe was absolutely perfect for Day 7. In my opinion, its filled with the raw richness and kindness of Angela - the author of "Oh She Glows". Not only are there beautiful recipes and sights - there are few times that you WON'T see something related to a fundraiser or giveaway posted.

In this blog you truly see an ongoing journey and its much more than a recipe blog.

I think that when you step inside and see what I'm talking about, you can experience it for yourself and roam through. Its a fantastic blog from the heart. :)

Something that would be absolutely fantastic to go along with that delicious sauce is my friend Susmitha's Neat balls. A super surprising ingredient in them? Turnips! They're filled with lots of flavorful goodies and the two recipes would be a great, tantilizing meal!

Day Five of Shinmas

Today we have a great, simple apple tarte that is both easy and love and easy to make. Its filled with pre-cooked, caramel glazed pears and coated with a bit of sugar, cinnamon and coconut oil (if you like).  If you wish to join in on the second post - feel free to comment here.

Day 4 of Shinmas

We didn't have anyone sign up for Shinmas today but that doesn't mean that I have nothing to share! I love to make seitan and I would say that there are an abundance of recipes that both I and my non-vegan family love, but there are other dishes with plenty of "umami" as well.

My absolute favorite seitan dish happens to be this nice, thinly sliced and shredded, Italian "beef". It was so juicy and flavorful we sometimes make three pounds of seitan to feed just two or three people, and we found the perfect way to have this was with vegan garlic & chive cream cheese and lots of Pat's Giardineria. Divine and melt-in-your-mouth tender!

Another one of my favorites is a very early recipe from my blog - vegan haemul pa jeon. These are seafood pancakes that are (traditionally) filled with calamari, scallops and shrimp but instead I used the much more vegan-friendly mushrooms and Chinese seaweed. It was salty, chewy, crisp and full of flavor - I still love it today with its umaminess. The shiitake mushrooms really brought it out, I feel, but I think that its best if you guys experience it for yourselves.

Day 3 of Shinmas

Today we have a great post from one of my favorite blogs - Scrumptious Gruel. I happened upon the blog about five months ago over the summer and saw a super easy English pudding that didn't need to be baked. I loved the author's pictures and although I used way too much sauce for my own ( which was still delicious and quite healthy), I tried a few other recipes out her vegetarian (with vegan attributes) blog. One thing that really piqued my interest was her hilarious sense of humor. Presenting Ellen of Scrumptious Gruel!

 

In the picture above she has utilized agar-agar to replicate several different versions of American Jello's and puddings. The lovely mulberries are very beautiful in the way they are suspended, and I think I might start making pandan and mochi "puddings" with her recipe. She's imaginative and full of kindness - her blog is most definitely something I could read everyday and I think the rest of you would really enjoy, whether vegetarian, vegan or far from either.

 

 

 

Another thing that interested me as of late (besides her obvious friendliness and love for trying new things) has been this very lovely pumpkin soup. It has been adapted from a different recipe, made vegan and has a bit of spice for those cold nights.
