Amanda's Comments:Road's End Organics® chreese products are very similar to Kraft® Macaroni and Cheese, making them the perfect vegan / vegetarian comfort food. You can buy boxes (that come with pasta) or just cheese sauce packets. They also have jars of nacho dip. I prefer the cheddar Mac & Chreese™—if you buy it from their web site, you can buy it in bulk!

Of all of the vegan cheese substitutes available, Vegan Gourmet™ is one of our favorites because it actually melts! Most vegetarian cheese alternatives contains casein in order to melt; vegan cheeses remove these ingredients, making them vegan but not meltable. Vegan Gourmet is one of the few that gets around this by using some creative vegan ingredients. You have to either microwave or broil it for a while first, but it's still fantastic—especially the mozzarella flavor on pizza. Mmm...

Spectrum Organics® Light Canola Mayo™

Amanda's Comments:Veganaise® tastes similar to regular mayonnaise, whereas Nayonaise® tastes similar to Miracle Whip® and has a

creamier texture. People tend to love one and hate the other, so if you're looking for a tasty mayo alternative, try

experimenting with multiple brands until you find one you like.

SUGAR ALTERNATIVES

INSTEAD OF REFINED WHITE SUGAR:

A note of caution: It's best not to use any added sugars to excess. There is no nutritional requirement for added sugar to the diet and all are high in calories.

EVAPORATED CANE JUICE, also known as ORGANIC SUGAR, is sugar cane that has the water removed or evaporated. This sugar has not gone through the last step in the typical refining process of granulated sugar. That step involves clarifying the sugar over charred animal bones to make it white. While evaporated cane juice may have an off-white color, it is totally vegan and has the same level of sweetness as granulated sugar. Use it just as you would granulated sugar.

FLORIDA CRYSTALS is a natural milled, unrefined certified organic cane sugar that naturally occurs in crystals. This sugar contains trace nutrients from the sugarcane plant and has no additives or preservatives. Florida Crystals can be used for cooking and baking just as you would granulated sugar. Environmentally conscious, this company's product is certified carbon-free to help reduce carbon emissions.

SUCANAT is a light brown sugar alternative that can be used like brown sugar. Made from whole cane juice, SUCANAT contains 100% of the natural molasses. It even stays soft longer than brown sugar.

MAPLE SYRUP is the natural sap taken from maple trees, and then boiled until syrupy. It's an ideal sweetener for pancakes, waffles, smoothies, beverages, and all varieties of baked goods. Use 2/3 cup to 3/4 cup in place of 1 cup of granulated sugar. When baking, add 1/4 teaspoon baking soda for each cup of maple syrup. Purchase U.S. organic maple syrup to avoid illegal formaldehyde pellets some producers add during processing. Once the container is opened, keep it refrigerated.

MAPLE SUGAR (DEHYDRATED MAPLE SYRUP) is in crystal form and makes an excellent sugar alternative. Use cup for cup as you would granulated or brown sugar.

AGAVE NECTAR is a liquid sweetener similar to honey and is extracted from the agave plant, a large succulent with thick fleshy leaves and spiny edges. In recipes, use 25% less AGAVE NECTAR or 3/4 cup in place of 1 cup of granulated sugar. Reduce the recipe's liquid by one third and lower the oven temperature of baked goods by 25 degrees.

BARLEY MALT is a thick honey-like substance made from barley that has gone through a soaking and drying process to extract its sugar. Considered half as sweet as granulated sugar, BARLEY MALT is an ideal substitute when you need a delicate sweetness. Use 1 1/3 cups BARLEY MALT in place of 1 cup of granulated sugar and reduce the recipe's liquid by one-fourth. When baking, add 1/4 teaspoon baking soda per cup of BARLEY MALT.

BROWN RICE SYRUP is similar to barley malt in its degree of sweetness and its thick honey-like texture. This sweetener is not recommended for baking cakes or breads because it creates a soggy texture. Use it for sweetening tea or other hot beverages, smoothies, and blender juices. For granola, pies, cookies, puddings, and fruit crisps, use 1 1/3 cups BROWN

RICE SYRUP in place of each cup of grranulated sugar and reduce the recipe's liquid by one-fourth. Add 1/4 teaspoon baking soda per cup of BROWN RICE SYRUP. Refrigerate the container after opening.

MOLASSES makes a good substitute for sugar in baking breads. Because of its pungent, distinctive flavor, it's best used in small amounts. Molasses shines as a beverage called liquid toffee. To make this treat, put 1 teaspoon of molasses into a coffee mug and fill it with boiling water. Stir it well, then taste. If needed, adjust the quantity of molasses. Drink and enjoy.

DATE SUGAR or DATE CRYSTALS are dehydrated ground dates that are used cup for cup as you would granulated sugar. Date sugar is ideal for apple or other fruit crisps or crunchy toppings, but be careful to prevent burning. This sweetener works best in combination with other sweeteners.

WHOLE DATES are ideal to sweeten blender beverages like smoothies and shakes as well as parfaits and fruit mousses. Chop the dates and add them to breads, cookies, granola, fruit salads, and many baked desserts. Combine dates and finely ground nuts in the food processor to create a tasty no-bake pie crust for raw desserts.

(Compare to frozen yogurt)

(Black Cherry, Chocolate Hazelnut, Creme Caramel, French Vanilla, Lemon-Ginger, Mocha Fudge,

Amanda's Comments:IMHO, Whole Soy® Frozen Cultured Soy is the smoothiest, creamiest vegan / vegetarian ice cream alternative on the

market. And it has cultured soy--(think vegan yogurt), which allows me to convince myself I'm actually eating a health

food. Best of all, the Chocolate Hazelnut and Mocha Fudge totally rock my world.

cheesecake products above are just a few options--you can also make your own cheesecake quite easily, and for a lot less money. Visit VegWeb.com or any other vegan / vegetarian recipe site for some great vegan / strict vegetarian

(Apricot-Mango, Banana-Strawberry, Black Cherry, Blueberry, Key Lime, Lemon, Peach, Raspberry,

Whole Soy® Cultured Soy

(Blueberry, Cherry, Lemon, Peach, Plain, Raspberry, Strawberry,

Vanilla, etc.)

Bryan's Comments:I've enjoyed just about every flavor from both Silk® and Whole Soy®. They're good by themselves, with cereal

mixed in, or with chopped-up fruit. Sometimes I'll just dip a banana into the yogurt cup as I'm eating it. The yogurt

from the two brands is different, so try both to see what you prefer. My vegetarian friends are switching to cultured

soy, too. It's really good!

Replacer(Use for baking)

Ener-G® Egg Replacer (Use for baking)

Fantastic Foods® Tofu Scrambler (Cook with tofu, compare to scrambled eggs)

Orgran™ "No Egg" Egg Replacer(Use for baking)

VegeCyber® Frozen Gourmet™ Eggless Fried Eggs (Lotus Steak)

Amanda's Comments:Ener-G® Egg Replacer is the egg replacer product used by most vegans and strict vegetarians when baking. It uses natural ingredients like potato starch, tapioca flour, leavening and cellulose gum, to make your pancakes, cookies, mufins, cakes, and other baked goods turn out just as fluffy as if you had eggs in them, but cholesterol and guilt free. The box also provides recipes for using to create whipped cream and quiche.

Products like Fantastic Foods® Tofu Scrambler are packets of spices that, when mixed with tofu, can be used to make a tasty dish that's very similar to scrambled eggs. While you probably wouldn't fool anyone into thinking the resulting dishes are actual scrambled eggs, they are quite delicious and fill your cravings quite well.

Bryan's Comments: I love tofu scramble! I usually make my own by mixing spices (cumin, coriander, tumeric, curry, paprika, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper) with crumbled tofu and add lots of diced vegetables. It's makes a great breakfast. Even my omnivore parents love

Soy Dream® Soy Milk(Carob, Chocolate Enriched, Original, Original Enriched, Vanilla, Vanilla Enriched)

Taam-Tov™ Vegan Instant Powdered Creamer (Original flavor, available in canisters and packets)

Amanda's Comments:Popular vegan / vegetarian milk alternatives include soy, rice, and nut varieties. The refrigerated varieties tend to

taste better and have a smoother texture, but the ascetic containers tend to be cheaper. Depending on the kind you

get, either can be a great option.

If you're looking for a vegan and vegetarian variety that tastes closest to actual milk, refrigerated Silk® soy milk is a

great way to go. If you just want a milk alternative to use for cereals or cooking, Rice Dream® is perfect. And for

gulping by the glass, my personal favorite vegan / vegetarian milk alternative is Chocolate Almond Breeze®, which

tastes like a nutty chocolate milk. I especially love it in my coffee!

Many vegan / vegetarian milk and dairy alternatives taste very different from one another, so it's best to experiment

with different brands and flavors to find ones that you really like. If you're new to milk alternatives, use the flavored

ones (like Vanilla) for drinking or putting on cereal--especially when using the ascetic container varieties. Use

original flavors for cooking or baking.

ProBar™ vegan, raw, whole-food meal replacement bars

(Original, Whole Berry Blast)

Amanda's Comments:If you've never had a Luna® Bar, you're definitely in for a treat. They're marketed toward women, and are actually

very nutritious. The Caramel Nut Brownie™ tastes like an extremely decadent candy bar (I'm drooling just

thinking about them). They're constantly changing experimenting with new flavors, all of which are delicious

alternatives to typically non-vegan, non-vegetarian candy bars, snack bars, and food bars. I actually stock these

in bulk so I always have them on hand. They're so yummy!

I'm also a really big fan of ProBar™ Berry Blast. They're a healthy, tasty, meal replacement.

Amanda's Comments:If you visit health food stores, there's a lot of ready-meal kits and frozen entrees out that cater to vegans and strict

vegetarians, and most of them advertise "vegan" on the package, so be sure to look for that. The above-mentioned

ones are some of our favorites
