This is the first of (probably) three and a half roundups for IMBB#19 on the theme of "I Can't Believe I Ate Vegan". Food Bloggers from all over the world have taken this opportunity to prove that purely vegetable-based food, without the addition of any animal products, can be transformed into tantalizing and tasty recipes that would have even the most ardent meat eaters begging for more. Thank you to everyone who took part. I hope everyone enjoys checking out all the imaginative recipes entered, as much as I did. Click on a photo that takes your fancy, or a recipe that sounds intriguing and start to discover the possibilities of veganism.

wow - very cool layout!
ReplyDeleteHay, fixed my vegan chili goof yesterday. I really didn't want to toss the entire pot, so I added a load of browned beef, tequila, beer, more chile powder and simmered it for 2 hours. That did it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to present the roundup, Sam. I love it!
ReplyDeleteawww...beautiful roundup so far! makes me even sadder that i missed it...*sigh*
ReplyDeletecan't wait for parts 2, 3, and 3 1/2!
Beautiful round-up!
ReplyDeleteNice to see you back in action! Missed ya'!
Awesome layout! Where do you get your ideas you creative and talented superwoman?! Must be all that time on the island!
ReplyDeleteIs this divided up by course? You clever girl you. I lurve it! I know I went a little batty with three entries, but hey, it was a great idea, so thanks!
ReplyDeleteFunky wrap-up!
ReplyDeleteA picture says a thousand words. A hundred IMBB photos say "eat me now!".
Thanks for a unique theme. I think we all learnt a little more about veganism!
Ditto everyone else- great roundup! I look forward to the rest: this is the first IMBB where I can actually appreciate/drool/try all the entries, since Im a vegetarian. Thanks for chosing such a great theme :-)
ReplyDeleteThis looks like the menu layout of several of my favorite Asian restaurants... the ones where you nod and point to the pretty food you want, not being able to pronounce its name.
ReplyDeleteFabulous job everyone!
Fantastic layout for the round up. What I loved about this IMBB is I am now more aware of vegan food; I ate Indian vegan dishes last weekend and I got some vegan bread made from soya milk which was so tasty. Thanks so much for a great theme.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great roundup and for hosting the event! Love the unique way you presented all of the participants.
ReplyDeletewhat a great layout sam! thanks for a fantabulous job for hosting this round.
