#VegetarianMeet - Dennis



What inspired you to switch from eating grazing cows to only eating grazing greens?
I got on the 'garden fence'….. When I read about the impact of over-farming and overfishing and its impact on animals, humanity, energy consumption and the negative impact it has on health and the overall cruelty to animals in the industry.


How long have you been a vegetarian?
I have been a vegan for two weeks now. My weaknesses were gelato and pizza. I have you been a vegetarian for approximately 20 years.


What veggie dish rocks your 'spirulina’?
I like simple, unprocessed vegetables.  My favorite combo is serving up garbanzo beans with baked sweet potato fries accompanied by steamed broccoli and kale. I season with cayenne and olive oil only.  It’s a good quick bachelor meal for a vegan.


Raw or Hot?
I definitely prefer a hot dish!


If you had to strike a pose, what would it be?
Eagle pose.


Your go-to restaurant for a good veggie meal?
My favorite go to restaurant is Soya e Pomodoro as they have a different vegan soup every day.  It is perfect for those who work near downtown Miami for lunch. The restaurant offers up an eclectic, yet romantic atmosphere.


Any recommendations for those on the fence of the plant-based garden….
Expand your knowledge on the cruelty to animals in the meat and dairy industries as well learn more about the health benefits.

#VegetarianMeet

The Bold Vegetarian will be randomly interviewing people she meets at plant-based restaurants/cafes.  What is the purpose to this? I don't know... but it is fun hearing what people have to say!
