I Love: Vegenaise!

May 1, 2009

Vegenaise by Follow Your Heart. “Vegenaise .. makes it better.” Their slogan makes it seem medicinal, but I agree. It certainly has helped me through some hard times. This stuff is great in pasta salad or mixed with some seasonings for a veggie dip. It’s great in a tofu salad, too (aka “tuna” or “egg” salad). I’m pretty disgusted by most dairy products, even the ones that I love the taste of, but Vegenaise is a wonderful substitute. Labeled as a dressing or sandwich spread, that only partially encompasses its versatility. It may not be fine cuisine (unless you don’t tell anyone!), but it’s awesome for adding some zing to an easy snack or side dish.

 

My favorite uses:

  • Pasta salad. Pasta, celery, black olives, carrots, and chick peas.
  • Veggie dip. Add some favorite seasonings or diced garlic/veggies and take your produce swimming.
  • Zing up a sandwich. Sometimes I don’t want just “turkey” on bread, but perhaps I’ve run out of sandwich ingredients. Vegenaise to the rescue. A little bit goes a long way.

Price: $4 ish

Where I get it: Whole Foods or Hannaford
