SVW: Single Vegetarian looking for Websites

I think I may OD on vegan blogs and websites soon and am desperate to find some great sites for vegetarians not just vegans. I've got to hand it to them, those vegans are super organized and love the Internet! I must be the prime example of a vegetarian blogger- too lazy to post consistently. Maybe, I'm too busy. I like the way that sounds a lot more and it's probably closer to accurate.

Have you found any great websites or blogs of the vegetarian persuasion? Shoot me a link in the comments section please!

Say Cheese!

Tomorrow marks the start of National Grilled Cheese month. I can't believe it, an entire month devoted to that delicious comfort food- cheese! A meal of cheese and bread may not be the most healthful, so I went digging for ways to upgrade this bad boy to fit into my lifestyle:


- Adding tomatoes and avocado's increases the nutrient value of grilled cheese and it's delicious!

- Heck, add all kinds of veggies to it- roasted red peppers, sprouts, arugula, whatever!

- Use whole grain bread

- Skip the butter usually used to brown the bread and use cooking spray/oil instead.

- Use low-fat cheese (or simply a lower fat cheese like mozzarella)

- Vegan cheese: This is hard to find in a lot of stores, but many Whole Foods (and I would assume Central Market) carry some version. The internet is a flutter with Daiya, which makes a shredded vegan cheese that is supposed to be amazing. You can check out their website for where it's sold. If they don't have it near you, let your local health food store know you want it! You can also order it from Pangea Vegan store.

What is your favorite way to enjoy this traditional treat?
