Zucchini Pasta and an Oreo Cookie Question

[3bee17]

 So I'm stuck at home for a few days recovering from a minor surgery. That means I have plenty of time to spend poking around the internet and experimenting in the kitchen (as long as my medicine isn't making me nauseous). I made my own variation of raw zucchini pasta for me and my mom tonight.

I don't have a recipe, but last time I checked, Oreos were not vegan. They refuse to guarantee that the sugar was not processed with bone char. :-/

Newman's Own makes cookies that are just like oreos, but organic and definitely vegan.

Ditto. Plus, the cookie wafer tastes sooo much better - it reminds me of a crunchy chocolate brownie or cake.

If you wanted to skip making them, Trader Joes makes a really sweet version of oreos. They are called Joe Joe's, and the coolest part is, they are made with real food! They are also cheap. 2.69 a box.

Beware of Trader Joe's, though. This Oreo knock-off might be vegan, but my husband and I are noticing that they add nonfat milk powder to things that are ordinarly vegan--example, frozen red potatos. Wha?

They mark their vegan products with a bold V symbol.

I loooooove Joe Joe's!

Health Valley makes these vanilla sandwich cookies that are so much better than oreos and even newman-o's, they are like little tiny cakes :D Made with straight forward ingredients.

I'll have to try them! I am a big fan of their graham crackers (plus a toasted sweet & sarah marshmallow and some dark chocolate) :D

my podcast had a taste-test and the best organic variety was country choice organics.
