About Me November 8, 2007
I am Madelyn and I live in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I am a lacto-vegetarian who became a vegetarian after I started to practice Yoga seriously. I never considered becoming a vegetarian before then. However, I have seen and felt how being a vegetarian has helped my health and my overall spirituality, believe it or not.
It’s funny, but when I decided to become vegetarian, I developed an increased appreciation for cooking and developing recipes suitable for the kind of diet I wanted to follow. Vegetarian cooking had such a bad rep - bland, unappetizing, monotonous, you name it… So I started taking successful non-vegetarian recipes, and adapted them to fit my new diet lifestyle.
And to me, being vegetarian goes a bit beyond just not eating meat or animal products. It has to do with having the most natural and organic lifestyle possible - no soft drinks, avoiding chemical or animal additives, avoiding canned foods, avoiding chemical medications, avoiding foods that have been cooked a long time ago, among others. It has definitely been a process that has taken me over 10 years.
I would like to share with you a bit of what I have learned, why I’ve done the changes I’ve integrated into my life and maybe help you start following a more natural, karma-free lifestyle too.

This is one of the best blog site I have seen. I am very proud of you and will definetely continue to contribute (although without knowing)
to keep your recipes going on!! Keep up the good work, and for the next get together I’ll have a new dip!!!
Very nice, Madelyn! Inadvertently, I have become a vegetarian but not quite to the extent that you are. I need to pay more attention to it I guess and now can do so via your blog. When I say inadvertently, I just happened to cut meat out of my diet. A couple of months later, I noticed that I had dropped twenty pounds! I wasn’t aware of many of the true vegetarian practices, but again, will pay more attention to your site.
Dear,
Sounds pretty interesting!
I love veggies….I either buy them at farmers market or go for only organic. Though I am not 100% veggie like you. But I just take white meat…..once in a while. If you like Indian cooking, do visit my blog.
cheers,
