Rainbow black bean and quinoa salad, a recipe (from Yummy Eats)

Get schooled this June in burgers, Greek food, pub food, raw food, green juice, pies. Full menu here.

Well hello there. I know I should’ve posted this recipe last week but I spent last week doing major R&R after a packed summer. How have you been?

Knife skills faster than a speeding bullet?

So in case I haven’t talked about it enough, I conducted a vegan cooking demo at Yummy Magazine‘s fabulous food fair last May the 26th in Rockwell Tent called Yummy Eats. It was pretty packed. My face appeared on the big screen which I did not expect. My team and I prepared enough samples for a small army. I was slightly nervous but I was comforted by the fact that I get to share my vegetable nerdery with people who don’t necessarily make vegetables a priority in their diet.

Lots of good food went around – mostly omnivorous. There were 2 vegetarian tables, though.

Wabi’s table. Their banh-mi is reaaaally good. They have egg-free mayo on hand, too.

Wabi Sabi Noodle House and Vegetarian Grocery had a pretty artistic table (they won the award for best design) and gave out samples of vegan chicharon. Their kuapao sandwich rocked, too. Pipino Vegetarian had a booth as well and gave out free samples of vegan mac and cheese and Cuban grilled corn.

The vegetarian love is slowly growing!

I made 3 dishes for the demo and I promised folks I would post the recipes on my blog. I’ve decided to post them in 3 parts. Part 1, here we go.

What a summer.

Wow. When I made my schedule for April and May, I did not expect things to get crazy. In a good way.

A lot has happened for Kitchen Revolution…

I started summer cooking classes for kids.

And in the process, two of my former colleagues and I had a mini reunion when they sent their daughters to class!

I taught a couple of cooking workshops for public school kids in partnership with Hands on Manila and Starbucks Philippines. It’s all about starting ‘em early, folks.

Vegan cooking demo at Yummy Eats on the 26th, aka the sky is falling

I really should get back to recipe testing (last na ‘to, promise!) but I just wanted to let you all know that the world must be coming to an end because — well, the reasons are 4-fold:

  1. Vegan cooking appeared on mainstream television last year (link here)
  2. Vegan cooking appears regularly in one of the top food magazines in the country starting this year (link here)
  3. Cosmo magazine celebrates a vegan chef as one of the fun, fearless, females of 2012 (link here)
  4. last but not the least…

There will be a vegan cooking demo at Yummy Eats, one of the biggest food(ie) fairs in the country.

Seriously, I never thought I’d see the day… But it’s happening.

On Saturday the 26th, stop by Yummy Eats at the Rockwell tent and watch me demonstrate a few of my favorite plant-strong recipes. I’m on at around 5:00pm so make sure you pass by then!

Philippines, I’m going to turn you plant-strong, just you wait. But in the meantime, it’s back to the kitchen.

For Yummy Eats updates, check out YUMMY’s Facebook page and Twitter .

Edited to add: (05/16/12)

Check out the line-up of chefs and cooking demos here. I’m the only vegetarian chef on the program, by the way (and by the looks of it, probably the only female?). While I’d love meat eaters to try the food I’ll be cooking, herbivores I’m counting on you to come veg-represent. There will be limited samples so sit close to the stage.

Eco-friendly cooking workshop on Earth Day at Maribago Bluewater

One of the great things about adapting a plant-based diet is that doing so makes you a planeteer. Guess who agrees with me —  Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort.

This Sunday is Earth Day and I’m marrying my love for food and love for the environment into one fantastic cooking workshop at Maribago Bluewater. I visited this lovely resort last January to conduct a cooking and juice workshop at their Amuma Spa. I had a blast and they’ve invited me back for another one.

Not only will I be hosting a cooking workshop, I’m making sure there will be amazing vegan options at the event’s lunch buffet. I’m gonna keep hush hush about the food, but trust me — you will be eating well.

If you’re in Cebu, love the earth, and curious about how vegetarian cooking can help save the planet, come to Bluewater Maribago’s Earth day family festival and say hi! It’s gonna be a fun Sunday — come spend it with me.

Check out the events page here for more information and for your inquiries.

Veggie lovin’ with Mano Amiga

Get cookin’ this August with two fabulous classes in Alabang! Kid-friendly Food on the 6th and Dessert Mayhem: Choose life. Choose Chocolate. on the 13th. Classes this month will start at 9am and end at 1pm. It’s gonna sweeeet! Check info here. Sign up here.

About a month ago my good friend Lynn Pinugu invited me to share my vegetable love with the kids of Mano Amiga, a school that she runs in FTI Complex, Taguig. I had the privilege of doing just this two Saturdays ago on the 23rd of July.

To be honest, that Saturday was a pretty hectic day for me and an end to a pretty hectic week. That morning I held the Fantastic Salads class and immediately rushed to Taguig for Mano Amiga. I couldn’t turn down the opportunity to teach kids how to enjoy vegetables! And boy was I glad I did. Nothing warms my heart more than to see a room full of kids eating healthy, vegetarian food (hanging out with cute farm animals comes as a close second).
