My name is Levita Diane Mondie, and I started the blog Vita’s Vegan Ventures to share the joys, benefits, and how-to’s of ethnic vegan cuisine, including Soul Food, Mexican, Italian, Indian, Ghanaian and even more. Here I share recipes, tips, reflections, and other resources that will help make incorporating life-affirming foods into your everyday lifestyle simple, fun, and delicious.
Vita’s Vegan Ventures is a combination of vegan cooking services, including hands-on cooking lessons, cooking demonstrations, lectures, and catering for small groups. Through Vita’s Vegan Ventures, I get to share over 15 years of experience veganizing traditional recipes, i.e. preparing dishes with alternatives to meat, cow’s milk, and eggs. For more, explore all of the links on the home page of this blog .
I invite you to follow this blog, try out the recipes, share your vegan experiences, or ask a thoughtful question. I especially appreciate opportunities to help readers veganize recipes.
I am glad we found each other!
Hi Vita,
We met last Wednesday evening at Peacefood Café in NYC–I’m the waitress with the vegetarian food blog. It was a pleasure meeting you, and I’m loving your blog. I’m also very impressed and inspired by Vita’s Eatery. Congratulation on all of your success.
Check out my blog and cooking show at http://www.sweetpotatosoul.com.
I’d love to hear from you, jneclaiborne@gmail.com
Best,
Jenné
Thank you so much, Jenne, for taking a look at my blog. I’ll be sure to do the same with yours and your cooking show. I absolutely love Peace Food Cafe. It is an inspiration to me.
Say hi to everyone there. Let’s stay in touch. Let me know when you’re in the D.C. area.
Hi Levita, I hope you are well.
I have been hearing a lot in the media recently about the health benefits of eating black rice. I don’t recall ever seeing this in the grocery store, and am not sure if I would even like it. Can you recommend any easy recipes that would incorporate this ingredient?
Thanks,
Andrew.
Thank you, Andrew, for giving me the opportunity to explore black rice. Please read my response, complete with some history, benefits, and culinary uses of black rice in the blog entry Black Rice, “The Forbidden Rice” . Please let me know how your adventures with this super food turn out!
Finally, the humility, peace, and love in Vita’s World has welcomed Humbly, Peax & Love. We met Miss Vita at the Maret Fete a few Saturdays ago. Embodying the contents of this blog Miss Vita has been agitating our list of things to do and i’m glad we did. Thanks for sharing.
