Picture this: It's Thursday morning, I hop in my car and drive to Peet's Coffee to get my usual Chai latte with almond milk: Very predictable, no-frills, nothing new. Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted a sign that drastically changed my run-of-the-mill order for the better. "Pl...

I decided this was the perfect time for me to learn to cook classic vegan comfort food. Today, I’m making black bean burgers with mushrooms, onions, vegan cheese & vegan mayo. And because I am at home with my parents in Napa and wine is aplenty, I thought it a good idea to open a bottle of wine, and chill out and feed the family these delicious burgers. What r...

Welcome to the best vegan options to eat when you find yourself lucky enough to be avoiding the coronavirus in ... wait for it... Maui! Yep, we hopped a flight (daring people that we are) and got ourselves to a green paradise. So here we are, eating and drinking our way around the most beautiful island...

Today, The Beet takes you to the First Plant-Based Italian Wine Bar in the Country, which was the creative vision of Tara Punzone, the Chef and Owner, who moved from Brooklyn, New York to LA and brought with her a passion for healthy southern Italian food, all made vegan. Chef Ta ...
