VLife

A few months ago while visiting New York, I discovered VLife, a Vegan restaurant in the Chelsea area of Manhattan, New York.  I had an incredible experience with the food being flavorful and simply put, an easy vegan bite while in Manhattan.  As far as drinks, we settled for two Thai bubble teas, which were delicious!  Regarding the main entrees, we had the Amazing Avocado, a gluten and soy free wrap; and the Bodacious Burger, which came with a soy patty, tapioca cheese and vegetables.  We were also recommended by their staff to try the V-Cheddar Poppers, which were completely unhealthy, but super delicious!  Definitely a must try in this restaurant.

Vegan Hors d’oeuvre with Polenta and Tostones

This is a perfect vegan hors d’oeuvre for when you have guests.  The recipe uses fried plantains (tostones), tofu, avocado, black beans and polenta. The recipe should take about 20 minutes to prepare and about 10 minutes to cook. The recipe was inspired from a recipe submitted by angloesque via allrecipes

Wine pairing: If you plan to pair this recipe with wine, please omit the garlic from this hors d’oeuvre, as it will take away from the wine experience. I recommend a white wine, such as a dry Riesling, a white Zinfandel, a Gewurztraminer or a Virginia Viognier. Like I said, stay away from the garlic on this one!
