Western Kansas Vegetarian Society

It has been asked for, and thanks to Lori, Marleah and the Hays Public Library,  we can now provide you with a cooking demonstration.  This is the first of hopefully many videos for cooking vegan.  In it was made the Tortilla Casserole which can be found in the on the Resources page of our site, or by clicking here.

I do want to mention that the Morningstar Farms soy crumbles used in the video has since changed their recipe.  The product now contains less that 2% skim milk making this actual recipe vegetarian, but non-vegan.  You can leave out the crumbles, yet still have a good well balanced main dish.  The black beans also put in the dish will provide some protein.  If wanted two cans of beans could be used.

We have written to the company to inform them of our disappointment.  If you would also like to send them a email, please feel free to do so from their website: http://www.morningstarfarms.com.  I hope you enjoy the recipe and video.

In January of this year we participated in the Humane Society of the High Plains Soup’R Bowl again. Again we served our Harvest Chili. It went over well and provided people with a great tasting vegan soup.

In case you have not heard of the event, the Soup’R Bowl is a competition among local cooks to provide the best tasting soup. It is then open to the public to decide. They can buy tickets and get to sample all of the soups to pick out the best one. All money raised then goes to the Humane Society of the High Plains.
Here are some pictures from the event.

Today we found a clip on the internet that talks about WKVS. This is amazing. SupremeMasterTV.com published this news artical out onto youtube. Here is what they have to say:

I have posted a new schedule for May and June. I wanted to point out some important changes though. Note that the May 20th and June 24 meeting are on Wednesdays from 5:30 P.M. – 6:30 P.M. Still have two Saturday meetings, but we have included some Wednesday meetings to try to help people make the meetings. With the activities that pile up on Saturdays, we want see if stepping out of the weekend loop can help people out.

So please stop by at our new and old times, and tell us what you think.

Sunday Marleah and I made an appearance at the Humane Society of the High Plains at their yearly Souper Bowl. We join 14 other groups in a competition of soup cooking, with the Hays area public being the judges. All money raised at the event went to the HPHS. This was a great event that we were proud to be a part of.

The turnout was great. We saw many people, and many people saw us with our Harvest Chili. We don’t have the recipe for the soup on our site, but hopefully I can get it posted as some point.

Even though we didn’t come in first, we enjoyed every minute of it. Mark it on your calendar for next year and get more information about the HPHS at there website http://www.hshponline.org/
