Welcome to Our Blog!

Hey everyone!  Our names are Lidia & Melissa.  We are both vegetarians living in New York City and we are both 20 years old.  We are starting our blog to share with you some of the amazing recipes we've come-across & created over the years.  We are into eating healthy but also eating food to enjoy!  We love making food that vegetarians & non-vegetarians alike can enjoy.  Although all our meals are vegetarian, they are not all vegan- so make sure you read the details!  

Our cooking styles are different but they mesh together nicely.  Melissa is more into healthy, organic meals & Lidia is more into ethnic, flavorful foods.  But, I'm sure you'll love both our styles.  We live in upper Manhattan & we absolutely love it up here! We can often be seen shopping, on the subway, chilling on our roof, or going for jogs in the park.  

OK well we hope you like our blog.  We will try to put up as many recipes & videos to compliment them as soon as possible.  

Oh, and for all you non-vegetarians out there, do not avoid our recipes just because there is no meat.  There are a lot of health & moral reasons to switch to meat-less eating & as you will see from our recipes, it can be quite enjoyable!  

Also on our blog, we will review vegetarian cookbooks & shows, show you how to pick the best produce & products, introduce you to our favorite restaurants & stores to supply all your favorite vegetarian meals & ingredients, & basically we will just be your friends in the kitchen showing you around to help you reach your cooking goals!  

Some of the things we would like to see more is more men cooking, more people eating healthy & not polluting their bodies, teens being able to make their own meals!!!, & New Yorkers not having to go out eat for every single meal- save your money!!  

Hopefully we can count on you to come back to our website for recent check-ups or to study up on a recipe.  We love emails & requests!  Feel free to contact us if you have questions, if you're confused, if you're not sure why you should become vegetarian, ANYTHING!

xoxo

I love your Blog! Great idea.
Just wondering if you have a recipe for stuffed bellpeppers (vegetarian style of course!).
