Eggplant Tofu | Cooking Vlog | #VeganRecipe

Eggplant. It is an interesting looking deep purple vegetable that I have tried at Panda Express, a while ago, with their side of Eggplant Tofu. Now, that I have transitioned from a vegetarian to vegan, I decided to make it from home. This would ensure that no meat by-products or ingredients were added to the sauce. So, I gathered all of my ingredients and captured my entire process in this Cooking Vlog below! 

By the way, all of the vegetables used in this recipe, other than the Tofu, were from Farm Fresh to You. I get all of my fruits and vegetables delivered from the local farms, here in California. If you're in the area, you can get $10 off your first box, using coupon code: SELE8487

Let me know in the comments below if you cook any family meals with eggplant. If so, share one of your favorite recipes! I'm always looking for new and exciting recipes to try and now modify into a vegan meal.

Now, it's time to see some in-the-kitchen action!

BzzAgent Unboxing JUST Water & Review 2016 @JUSTisbetter #complimentsofJUST

Water is super important to the nourishment of our bodies but it is also important to consider how we contain the water we drink. I used to be a tap water, right out of the faucet, kind of gal but the water started tasting a little weird so I had to change over to drinking filtered or Spring Water. So the water that I purchase now comes in large plastic containers and I pay a 10 cent CRV fee as well, for the plastic. With the amount of water that I drink in the plastic containers, I make sure that I recycle too. 

Today, I tried JUST WATER, 100% Spring Water in a paper-based bottle, from my BzzAgent campaign. In the following video review, I shared more about this brand and my personal review of the water, after trying it.
