Hello Oh My Veggies readers! My name is Joanne, and I normally write about my kitchen adventures over at my blog, Eats Well With Others. I decided to become a vegetarian about 4 years ago, when one day in March I woke up and realized that I hadn’t eaten meat in over a month. And I didn’t miss it. Since then, I’ve embraced a totally whole foods, plant-based diet and haven’t looked back.
Today, I am super thrilled to introduce a new monthly feature on OMV — Ingredient Spotlight. In this series, each post will highlight an out-of-the-box, trendy (vegetarian) ingredient that might just be new to you, and show you how to integrate it into your everyday meals. I love scouring the grocery store for items I’ve never seen before, bringing them home, and then challenging myself to figure out how to incorporate them into a recipe. Hopefully by the end of each of these posts, these ingredients will feel more familiar to you, and you’ll be inspired to experiment with them in your kitchen as well!
