To honor this day, I want to feature the work of a great vegetarian cook
& photographer.
Chelsea's Butternut Squash & Potato Soup
My friend Chelsea James has an amazing talent for both cooking and having the
self-discipline to cook something healthy & delicious for 365 days! For 144
days so far, she’s been putting together restaurant-quality meals at home that
make my mouth water…like right now, when I just saw her photo of a cheesy
Caprese Sandwhich. She says it’s a great option when you’re in a hurry.
In her own words, Chelsea’s project aims to recreate the concept of
vegetarian food in the eyes of the public:
Creamy Avocado Shells!
“I hope this project comes off as worthy, insofar as I’m trying to
consistently cook at home (with local produce and ingredients when possible).
Furthermore, I hope this album inspires vegetarians and proves something to the
public about the vegetarian diet: it’s not all bland salad and soggy
croutons. This can also be perceived as an invitation for meat eaters to reduce
their consumption of meat/animal products (or to at least seek out sustainable
and local animal products).”
Chelsea's DIY Solar Cooker Meal
As if this weren’t enough, she cooks with the sun
too!!! She built a Kyoto
box solar cooker (see photo) to cook some fresh veggies!
Find all of Chelsea’s photos and start trying some
novel foods yourself at her Facebook album!
