Summertime, and the grillin's easy. Whether you're entertaining a family of fully plant based guests or you're expecting company with large appetites and preferences all across the board, here are my few tips to keep everyone full, happy and ready for seconds:  As a best practice, always grill any veggies first before any animal products and use separate grilling tools and serving utensils to avoid any potential cross-contamination  Invest in labeling!

Today is the day! We have officially launched smoothies, our coolest product category yet.

No matter where we looked, we couldn’t seem to find all four of these elusive virtues in one package. The healthiest of our meals were the most time-consuming — and the most expensive. The tastiest were the worst for our health. And the most convenient were bland and repetitive. We knew there was a better way, and we decided to find it.
