Virtual Vegan Potluck 4.0 November 2013

It’s here! It’s here! Vegan Bloggers Unite! is proud to be hosting Virtual Vegan Potluck 4.0! The very creative and brains behind the idea Annie, of An Unrefined Vegan, has enlisted the help of some other wonderful people to make sure the event goes smoothly. Our hope is that you connect, enjoy and spread the word about how vegan food IS delicious. Long gone are the days of tofu and iceberg lettuce, vegan food is all about taste and providing nutritional comfort. Don’t let me stop you – please, sit down, get comfy and enjoy what Annie has written below. Welcome – please be sure to have a napkin ready as the recipes might induce drooling. Welcome to the 4th Virtual Vegan Potluck! This Potluck we have over 140 food bloggers taking part in this worldwide celebration of vegan eats! Rubbing elbows in the chow line with our talented home chefs are authors Kathy Hester, Robin Robertson, Ellen Jaffe Jones, Natalie Slater, and Bryanna Clark Grogan. We also send a warm welcome to cookbook publisher Vegan Heritage Press. Though there are a few changes to this Potluck, including the addition of a new category called Featured Ingredient (look for the recipes that contain beets!), the help of mentors, and instructional videos, some things have remained constant: cruelty-free food, a sense of community, and enthusiasm for sharing the creativity and deliciousness of plant-based eating. And, of course, Vegan Bloggers Unite! which has been with the VVP since the very first Potluck back in May 2012. Thank you, Lidia! To begin your plant-based culinary journey, simply click on the first blog in Appetizers and work your way through until the last, scrumptious Dessert. Each blog will link to the next in the “chain.” You can always return here if you get lost – and the November 16 Potluck’s permanent home is here. Thank you for coming and bon appetit! – Annie, An Unrefined Vegan
