Who doesn’t love a good vegan grilled cheese sandwich? That’s why we’re putting a compassionate spin on this food holiday, making it National (Vegan) Grilled Cheese Day. And to celebrate, we’re sharing our award-winning gourmet vegan grilled cheese recipe!
Last year, COK competed in the 10th Annual Grilled Cheese Invitational (GCI) at the Pasadena Rose Bowl–and we took home the trophy for 3rd place in the professional chef category!
Easter is a celebration of life — and what better way to honor this holiday than by choosing animal-friendly foods and activities that everyone can enjoy?
Sadly, many Easter traditions are centered around eggs, the overwhelming majority of which come from birds intensively confined inside tiny wire battery cages for the entire lives. On these egg factory farms, hens are denied the ability to perform many of their most natural behaviors, including perching, nesting, dust-bathing, foraging, and even walking.
Resist the urge to turn all of your St. Patrick’s Day food an unsettling shade of green. While the green food coloring goes well in beer, we wouldn’t want you missing out on the true experience of these classic Irish favorites!
Leaning heavily on the potato, vegan Irish cuisine focuses on the main crops grown in Ireland: barley, oats, wheat, cabbage, kale, tomatoes, carrots, onions, and of course, potatoes. Warm, comforting foods like shepherd’s pie and stew (recipes below) are popular on the Emerald Isle.
Given the many cultural and culinary influences on the Philippines throughout history, Filipino cuisine is eclectic and can be difficult to succinctly describe. Traditional dishes range from meat- and seafood-heavy entrées reminiscent of Spanish cuisine to more fruit and vegetable centered options featuring the fresh produce available on the Philippines’ tropical islands.
As a second-generation Filipino American — and a vegan — I’ve been revisiting some of the dishes I grew up with and exploring some new recipes too. The exciting challenge has been taking foods traditionally made with meat, dairy, and eggs and creating delicious vegan versions that stay true to their original flavors. Here are my top four favorite Filipino recipes – veganized.

Instead of painting eggs, the overwhelming majority of which come from birds intensively confined inside tiny wire cages for the entire lives, look for paper-maché or wooden eggs in craft stores to paint, decorate, and hide. You can also make egg-free egg-shaped cookies that are a fun and delicious way to fill your Easter basket with joy!
Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day, and it’s time to get your green on—on your plate, that is! Skip the factory-farm produced corned beef and bangers—and instead indulge in some animal-friendly Irish recipes that will satisfy even the hungriest of bar-hopping brogues.
