What is Mae Chop Suey?

Make something out of nothing. You can take the same ingredients and make hundreds of different meals. You can make the same meal hundreds of times and it tastes different each time. To me, food nourishes your mind, body and soul.

This blog will highlight a healthy, sustainable lifestyle. I'm a cheap vegan. I'm a recent vegan and I'm still trying to figure it all out, but I invite you to explore the vegan lifestyle with me.

It's about saving the world.
It's about saving yourself.

My signature dish is Mae Chop Suey, which is a dish of something I make out of nothing, using any ingredients I find in my kitchen. Usually it becomes a soup or a pasta, but it is always vegan and always delicious. I am a poor college student and I try not to spend money on food, so I go to Farmers' Markets and borrow my roommates food for ingredients and I have yet to disappoint a palate...

Why be a vegan?
The better question is, why not?
And the most important question is, HOW?

Visit Mae Chop Suey to follow my journey of how to make being a vegan work for you. Three years ago I was eating steak and potatoes. Two years ago I was eating manicotti. And now I eat vegetable soup. Join me in a quest for better food and better health, leading toward a better world.
