Aloha everyone, It's been a busy couple of months for us. We just submitted the manuscript for our next book on Asian Vegan cuisine, due to be released in July 2010. Its been exceedingly fun to design the recipes and learn so much about the cuisine and culture of Asia! Stay tuned as we share recipes and photos as the release date approaches. We had the fortunate opportunity to provide consulting services for one of our favorite natural food stores, Pacific Coast Greens, in Malibu, California. We designed over a dozen new vegan recipes for them and trained their chefs on how to prepare them. Please drop in and ask for some of the new recipes such as Walnut Crusted Tofu, Raw Wasabi Ginger Pate, Raw Cashew Cheese, or our famous Grilled Tempeh Reuben. By the way, we LOVE helping folks create vegan options on their menus. If you know of a food service establishment - restaurant, cafeteria, cafe, or natural food store, that would benefit by including some of our award-winning recipes, please visit here to learn more about Vegan Fusion Consulting Services. We also contributed 20 heart healthy recipes to Pure Wellness Series: Cardiovascular Health an incredible e-book on cardio health. This information is a life saver for anyone concerned with the health of their cardiovascular system. Please see below for more info. For those of you who missed Mark's interview on Its Your Talk Radio with Lisa Davis, you can listen to the interview here. Mark also had the opportunity to be interviewed on Whole Living on Martha Stewart radio. Please read on for a free recipe from The 30-Minute Vegan. To your health, The Vegan Fusion Ohana
