Vegan Breakfast Options @the Downtown Co-op Hot Bar!

If you haven't yet checked out the vegan breakfast options at the downtown Community Food Co-op Hot Bar, you really should! They have a vegan potato casserole that is FANTASTIC (whether you are vegan or not--this dish is very popular and always goes FAST), and the tofu scramble is also delicious.

I am also a fan of their vegan raspberry banana muffin (over in the baked goods section of the store), and they of course have wonderful coffee and can make a mean Americano. That combo has become my Saturday morning breakfast of choice this past month, and I hope the Co-op decides to keep these options going through the month of March. The menu changes depending on the day of the week, and from what I can gather, the schedule is set on a monthly basis.

Unfortunately, at the time of this writing, the Co-op has not yet published their Hot Bar menu beyond today's date, so we'll have to check back and see what's in store for next month, I hope hope hope they keep the vegan breakfast options going for Saturday mornings! It's so great to have another place downtown to go out for breakfast on the weekends.

I have not yet explored much in the way of their other vegan Hot Bar options, so if there is something you have tried that you think is work noting, please don't hesitate to let me know. Always feel free to leave a comment or send me an email--I am always grateful for your tips!

Ambo Ethiopian: 902 N State Street #104

The moment I have been dreaming of for over a year now has finally happened--Mulunesh Belay has opened Ambo Ethiopian again, now in it's new location! As soon as I heard the news, I knew I would be there for the very first moment that she opened. I did not want to miss a moment and I could barely stand the waiting. Yesterday, November 16, 2019, was the grand opening in the new restaurant on N. State Street, and my husband and I went with some friends to celebrate and once again enjoy Mulu's amazingly delicious cuisine. (And yes, we were the very first ones there). I ordered the kale and yellow split peas and everything was just as good as I had remembered. I am already planning when I can eat there again (which will be tomorrow evening, in case you are wondering, followed most likely by multiple evenings this week!!). Over this past year, I have missed the delicious vegan food from Ambo Ethiopian, and Mulu's beautiful bright smile, more than I can say, and I am...

Bayou on Bay: 1300 Bay Street

Not only does Bayou have several vegan options on their menu, they also have weekend vegan brunch options! If you have not yet tried the vegan hash, I recommend it. This mouth-watering dish takes potatoes, avocado, onions, other veggies--cooked just right and combined with the perfect amount of seasoning--to create a fantastic dish you will want to eat again and again. Weekends are just that much better when you can incorporate brunch at Bayou into them!

Pigs Peace Sanctuary: 27631 56th Ave NW, Stanwood, WA

I can't believe I have wanted to visit the Pigs Peace Sanctuary for nearly 20 years, and then finally, yesterday, my wish came true. And the experience was truly amazing. If you are not yet familiar with the Pigs Peace Sanctuary, I encourage you to learn more about it. We are so lucky to have such a valuable place so nearby Bellingham. Not only does it provide a safe place for rescued animals to recover from trauma and live out their lives in peace and happiness, it also offers humans a place to connect with and learn more about these beautiful, often misunderstood creatures. Judy Woods and the volunteers that help her are doing really incredible work and you cannot help but be moved by the stories of bravery, survival, recovery, and connection that Judy shares with you when you visit the sanctuary. Tour appointments have to be scheduled and approved with Judy in advance, and people are eligible to sign up as volunteers with the sanctuary after attending a tour. My...
