Beet Salad

The Chef: Alexandra and Herbivore

The Menu: A giant roasted beet salad with soy chicken and avocado.

The Goods: Behold the mighty beet salad, large and hearty enough to satisfy anyone's hungry stomach. VN Associate Publisher Colleen Holland surprised us today by treating the staff to a delicious lunch from Herbivore, and I knew exactly what I wanted to try. We're big kale lovers at the VNHQ, but deep down, I know I'll always be more loyal to beets (not that there's a real rivalry at all). With the added soy chicken and avocado, this meal filled me up more than the usual sandwich. Eating on the sunny deck didn't hurt either. Here's to a relaxing weekend!

actually that looks like a real photo from the actual dish. although that photo doesn't look flashy of glossy like a Playboy centerfold, it's actually exactly what any vegan and Vegnews reader would LOVE to see ; REAL vegan food from tha actual recipe.

You know, that's actually a really good photo of actual vegan food. Why don't you hire whoever shot this photo to just shoot photos of actual, real vegan food?

I canceled my subscription today until VegNews decides to stop acting like petulant children and do the right thing.
