Vegan Kitchen Notes Blog from New World Kitchen in Des Moines, Iowa
Scared of “fake meat”?
Scared of “fake meat”? Me too, honestly.As someone who’s been vegan for over 10 years, meat feels foreign at this point. I never really was the biggest fan of the texture or taste, so luckily I don’t miss it. But I do crave patties or main dishes that bring flavors, textures, & a satisfaction that sometimes vegetables just can’t quite give.Because I don’t love commercial processed meat alternatives, I set out to make my own. I make them from scratch using vegetables, beans, grains, & spice blends. The opportunities are endless - which is exactly what gets me excited about...

The Man Behind the Photos
There aren’t many photos of Justin since he’s usually the one behind the camera! Justin Norman of ST Media is the one to thank for the beautiful photos and website for New World Kitchen.

Whether helping clean up the kitchen at the end of a long day of cooking, or running a last minute errand when I run out of an ingredient, he has been an absolute lifesaver. His encouragement and support is a huge part of why New World Kitchen is even here. 🥰Oh...

Beets and Hummus, Together at Last
When I decided to make a beet hummus, even I thought.. ummmm yeah, this will probably be gross... but I’ll try anyway. And I love beets!But it surprised me. It’s. SO. GOOD! It may look intimidating, but it is savory, sweet, vinegary, creamy and fluffy in texture and absolutely beautiful. I’ve been eating it by the spoonful, spreading it on toasted sourdough with tons of black pepper, and dipping veggies in it.Give it a shot! Don’t be scared. Beets are friends. 🤗😂
