Chicago Soydairy Giveaway

Chicago Soydairy Giveaway

Winners!  Since one mentioned marshmallows, and the other mentioned cheese, it was easy to decide who would get which prize.

Dandies, Scissors and Spice:  I am so, so happy to have Dandies in my life. We go on public hayrides at a nearby park that always include a bonfire and smores making. Thankfully, I can bring my children their own marshmallows so they are not left out of the fun! Dandies make parenting easier! 🙂

Teese, Celeste:  My favorite cheesy foods are pizza, baked ziti, and mac & cheeze!

Today’s giveaway is brought to you by Chicago Soydairy, the makers of Teese Vegan Cheese and Dandies Vegan Marshmallows.

Remember those dark days, when vegan cheese was something that made you sigh deeply because what little that was available wasn’t very good?  It tasted funny, it didn’t really melt, gooey pizza was but a dream.  These days we have more vegan cheese options than we can shake a bag of nooch at, but Teese was the first to make people excited about vegan cheese. In addition to basic mozzarella and cheddar flavors, they also make cheddar and nacho flavored sauces.

I also remember those dark days when there was one vegan marshmallow…and then we found out it wasn’t really vegan!  Now we have two kinds of marshmallows, made by dedicated vegan companies.

First of all, CSD loves VeganMoFoers so much, they are doing their own contest, where the winner will receive a years supply of Dandies!  All you have to do is to make something with Dandies, blog about it, and send them the link.

Today’s giveaway will have two winners:  one person will get two bags of Dandies, the other person will get one of each flavors of Teese (four total).  To enter, just comment here and tell us what your favorite cheesy or marshmallow-y food is (or both!).  US residents only!  The winners will be chosen randomly tonight at 10 pm CST.  Don’t forget to leave your email address so we can contact you!

ProBar Giveaway!!!

ProBar Giveaway!!!

Congratulations to KaraHadley and Megan!  Both of you beauties will be getting an email asking for your addresses very shortly.  Thanks for signing up ever’body!!!

What up, MoFos?!  I am totally beyond stoked to tell you about this here giveaway for ProBar products.  For those not in the know, this company makes some seriously amazing whole food based meal replacement bars.  Don’t let the description fool you because these things are beyond delectable.

The first time I ever had a ProBar was on a whim.  I was hungry at the store and got myself one from the sweet and savory line, a little gem known as Cherry Pretzel.  This bar had it all: sweet and tangy cherries, decadent chocolate, and crunchy salted pretzels.  I’m pretty sure I swooned.

Contest open to US & Canada only.  Winners will be chosen at 7AM Pacific time October 6th!  

The Vegan Vine Wine Giveaway!

The Vegan Vine Wine Giveaway!

We have a winner! Cristy, who said: “I haven’t cooked with wine in a long time. Since I prefer white wine, I’d choose the Sauvignon Blanc and use it in a light pasta sauce of some sort. Adding to risotto does sound delicious! Splash for the food, glass for me… splash for the food, glass for me… Splash for me, splash for me…”

Thanks for playing everyone!

Today’s giveaway is a $30 gift certificate from The Vegan Vine. Yes, my friends, it’s wine country! The Vegan Vine is a family-owned and certified sustainable winery located on the coast of central California. They refine their wines without the use of any animal products. Their whimsical packaging is reason enough to need a bottle in your kitchen today!

Even if you’re not the type of person who likes to talk about the “legs” on a glass of Cabernet, or the citrus undertones of a Chardonnay, wine is a powerful ingredient for any vegan chef. Cooking with a splash (or a glass) adds depth and nuance to stews, sauces and marinades, taking dishes from “I could make that” to “How did you make this?”

Some traditional dishes made with wine are picatta and boeuf bourguignon, which both translate beautifully to plant-based recipes. I always finish off risotto with some white wine. But the question is: How do you cook with wine? To enter this contest, check out the Vegan Vine website, then tell us which of their wines you would use to cook one of your favorite dishes. Of course you’d have to enjoy a glass alongside your meal, too. Or perhaps even while you’re cooking!

The winner will be picked at random by 8 PM EST tonight, October 4th, 2011. This contest is US only. Please don’t forget to fill in your email address, so that we can contact you if you’re the winner. Good luck!

Added bonus: Best use of wine in MoFo so far has to go to Vegans Eat Pencil Shavings, for this Cabarnet Dessert Caviar.

Panda With Cookie Giveaway!

Panda With Cookie Giveaway!

This summer at Vida Vegan Con I had the pleasure of finally getting to meet the woman behind Panda with Cookie and check out her adorable creations in real life, they are even cuter in person! She also told me to check out the Flavor Spot in Portland where I got a vegan breakfast sausage and maple syrup wrapped in a waffle so she will always have a special place in my heart for that!

Lisa is doing a fabulous Tofu Pirate Set giveaway for one lucky person to celebrate veganmofo! The winner will get their very own handmade tofu pirate plush

and will get to learn all about tofu pirate’s rollicking excursions in the Tofu Pirate Comic Adventure Zine of Fun where Tofu pirate has 4 mini adventures with various friends.

“Tofu Pirate in Existential Crisis” and “Tofu Pirate Memories” will make you laugh and cry and think. And mostly laugh. Guest appearances by old friends Mushroom Pirate, Tempeh Pirate and more!

To enter all you have to do is have an adventure of your own traveling to Panda’s etsy site and pick out your favorite item. Then come back here and let us all know what it is in the comments. The contest is open to anyone in the world with an address and I will pick a random winner by the stroke of midnight (CST) tonight! Please don’t forget to leave your email address.

And check out Panda’s blogs Vegans on the Move and Panda with Cookie for even more mofo fun.

 

Gardein Giveaway!

Gardein Giveaway!


Our winners are:

Lisa B:  I just found these products last week, so I am anxious to try them all. I am trying the mandarin chicken tonight! Would love to have the stuffed turkey for thanksgiving as an alternative to the tofurkey we’ve been having!

Ruthie:  PICK MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 🙂 I have never eaten ANY of their products! I would like to try them all.

Dave L:  I have never found something so eerily similar to the traditional ‘philly steak’ as the beef tips (when used correctly). Although I typically cook from scratch, I would definitely get as many bags as I could and have a philly party for all my friends. Thanks!

Emily:  I love the BBQ Pulled Shreds! I wouldn’t mind trying some other Gardein products as well.

You can send your mailing address to veganmofoblog@gmail.com, or we will contact you shortly!

Today we have an awesome giveaway from Gardein!  Gardein has a special place in my heart.  When I was living in Tennessee and I had to drive an hour to find a health food store, Gardein appeared in the local Kroger, one of the few pre-made vegan foods I could get that wasn’t a t.v. dinner.  I would often buy the tuscan breasts, a box of tofu, some broccoli, and I would have a quick dinner for my husband and I.  Now that I have access to a health food store i’m able to enjoy a wider variety of their products, we actually had the mandarin orange crispy chik’n last night (my only complaint being that I had to share).

The folks over at Gardein have generously offered to send four lucky winners a prize pack of five free product coupons AND an apron!  Simply leave a comment telling us which Gardein products you would get with your coupons, and make sure to include your email address so we can contact you.

Winners will be chosen randomly tonight at 11 pm CST, contest is open to residents of US and Canada.

Food for Lovers Queso and Chips Giveaway!

Food for Lovers Queso and Chips Giveaway!

The queso goes to adriennefriend who said:

I would definitely use this queso to smother some kind of casserole – instead of making my own cheeze, which is usually what happens! 🙂

Please send your mailing address to veganmofoblog@gmail.com!

 

Food For Lovers Queso
Image From Food For Lovers Website

The first time I bought Food For Lovers queso, I deeply regretted only buying two jars. This originally started as an amazing recipe on the internet, and Chris and Crystal eventually started selling to restaurants in Austin, then to Austin Whole Foods. Now you can mail-order jars, and I’ve even purchased their queso from my local health food store in Maryland.

This dip is everything queso should be. It’s spicy, creamy, and full of chunks of tomatoes and peppers. It’s great straight out of the jar, or poured over nachos, tacos, pasta, tofu scramble, and anything else you can think of.

One lucky winner will get four jars of queso and chips. Just leave a comment telling us how you’d like to use the queso. Don’t forget to include your email!

A winner will be chosen at random around 10pm EST. This is open to U.S. residents only.

We’re planning other giveaways that will include our international readers, so stay tuned! The giveaway crew has worked really hard to make this month amazing!

And we have our 2 winners!!

Asian Fusion goes to:

Crystal: Speaking of Asian, I have fallen in Korean-love with Mapilee’s Alien’s Day Out blog. She is the perfect combination of all things Asian, Arty and Vegan. My fave post of hers this week (although I am in love with all things she posts) ishttp://www.aliensdayout.com/2010/11/oh-my-life.html where she highlights the difficulty of this Vegan MoFo challenge honestly but makes up for it with so much amazing KOREAN food. Plus her rabbit bunny is sooo cute!

Becoming Vegan goes to:

Libby Patterson Smith: “I absolutely loved Yu Ming’s post on raw-bento about bibimbap! I just discovered her blog along with many others on the Vegan MoFo site and I cannot stop reading all of the wonderful vegan foodies’ dishes. Yu Ming has a fresh perspective and is a relatively new raw foodist and I love hearing about her experiences in Tokyo.
