Vegan Recipes?
Hey there! My husband and I have decided to try to eat vegan to help some health issues he is having. New to it and all I can dream about it meat and dairy:) Anyone have any great recipes/blogs?
Re: Vegan Recipes?
Definitely, Oh She Glows.
I like vegweb.com when I have a taste for something and need a recipe - user reviews and pictures of vegan recipes.
Blogs:
Fat Free Vegan Kitchen
Vegan Dad
The Vegan Stoner
For cookbooks, try Appetite for Reduction - healthy vegan meals. If you don't care about nutrition info try the Veganomicon.
I also like Happy Herbivore - website and cookbooks.
Hope this helps!

I love dailygarnish.com. She's got some amazing recipes for regular meals and some great desserts.
I recently started to eat mostly vegan (I eat vegan thru the week, and relax a bit on the weekends), and I feel SO much better since giving up dairy (I was a lacto-vegetarian for almost 10 years prior).
Good luck!
One of my friends recently became a vegan, and I started to pay attention to how many of my favorite meals are vegan. There are more than I thought!
black bean quinoa salad with tomatillo salad
braised white beans with zucchini, tomatoes, and potatoes
brown rice with black beans and cilantro
chickpea and butternut squash salad
lentil marinara
red kidney bean curry
rice noodle salad with peanut dressing
tofu mu shu (just skip the egg; it isn't necessary with the tofu too)
tuscan-style couscous salad
vegetable curry
vegetarian chili
white bean avocado sandwich
my food blog
This Southwestern Quinoa is really good. Just don't use the optional cheese/sour cream on top.

Not sure if you are looking for desserts, but this is hands down the best chocolate cake I have ever had. DH is vegetarian, but has many vegan friends, and they usually request that I provide the dessert for dinners, and this is the most requested item.
