Cyber Monday Deals for Eco, Green, Vegan People: Solar Charger, LifeStraw, Yoga Kit, Food Storage and More!

11/27/2016

0 Comments

 
Okay, my fellow cheap chickadees, I have found us some Cyber Monday deals on some super-cool stuff!

From the looks of things, most of them are right about 30% off of the regular price, which is a pretty good deal, particularly for things that are difficult to find on sale elsewhere.

This first one is the LifeStraw personal water filter. We already have one of these that we bought last year. We are going to buy at least one more at this great price!
Next up is this portable solar charger with two USB ports. You know we love a road trip and we love all things solar panel, so I ordered this one last night. Now I'm wondering if I should order another one before this deal disappears!
This is not the food sealer that I have, but I can tell you that I do not know how I ever lived without mine. If you are new to vacuum sealing and the high-priced machines have been scaring you off, now is the time to give it a try! Using a sealer is a great way to extend the life of your produce, so don't pass up this vacuum sealer deal! 
Speaking of extending the life of your produce...you can reduce your food waste by switching to produce storage containers like these...
And, finally, I saw this yoga kit and thought it would be the perfect gift for someone just getting into yoga. If you know anyone like that (or are just getting into yoga yourself), you might want to grab this kit while it is a Cyber Monday deal!
These are just a handful of Amazon Cyber Monday deals I found that I thought you might like. There are hundreds more, so make sure you look around while you are there!

Quick Breakfast Smoothie Recipe (Vegan)

11/19/2016

Quick Breakfast Smoothie Recipe
Lately, I have been doing green smoothies for breakfast. However, today I had some coconut milk and a banana that needed to be used, so I decided to indulge in a more dessert-like treat for my first fuel of the day.

Since it was totally tasty and so quick to throw together, I thought some of you might like to try it too!

Quick Breakfast Smoothie Recipe

11 ounces coconut milk
1 banana
1 scoop Vega Protein & Greens (I used the vanilla flavor)
1 handful of pumpkin seeds
2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
1 teaspoon chia seeds

Simply throw it all in the blender and blend it with a few ice cubes (if you prefer a thicker smoothie).

This took only a couple of minutes to put together and blend, which makes it great for when you need a quick breakfast smoothie to take with you as you head out the door in the morning.

SoCal VegFest 2016: Wrap-Up and Lots of Pics!

11/6/2016

SoCal VegFest 2016
Okay, it has been one week since I headed south to Costa Mesa and spent two awesome days at the 2016 SoCal VegFest.

I would have posted this sooner but, since I’ve been home, there have been a couple of things to contend with – such as having the fam over for Halloween, and then having our second slab leak this year. Ugh! It was the same pipe, so we had to have plumbers come and reroute the whole line so that it now runs through the attic. Up next are the drywall repair folks, and then determining whether we can replace just part of the flooring where the leak happened or if we have to replace all of the flooring in our house. Blah to all of that.

Anyways, that is what has been keeping me busy this week, so I apologize for waiting a week before posting my wrap-up of SoCal VegFest!
SoCal VegFest Food Court
Now on to the good stuff…

First off – thank you so much to all of you who liked and retweeted my live tweets from the event. I hope you found them fun and useful! It was great to meet some Twitter friends at the festival and, as I tweeted during the event – I’m so used to being the only vegan in the room almost everywhere I go that it was truly incredible and amazing to be surrounded by thousands of compassionate vegans, vegetarians and veg-curious folks.

And I thought I was going to have to skip #juicing today. I should've known #SoCalVegFest would have a juice booth! pic.twitter.com/ouK9EDxHFN

Green Juice
This green juice was so refreshing once the day got hotter.
Annette Conlon and Doug Conlon
I had the chance to have a long chat about vegan makeup and our love of tea with vegan singer/songwriter Annette Conlon, ate A LOT of awesome vegan food, and had the opportunity to meet some of the amazing folks who own or run vegan companies and organizations that I love. I also found out about some new brands I had yet to discover and picked up several products that I will be reviewing on Cheap Vegan Chick in the coming weeks.
Veg in OC Body Butter
Like this luxurious body butter from Veg in OC (above)!
SoCal VegFest Food Vendors
This is just one row of vegan food vendors at SoCal VegFest (above) and the one I chose for my first meal at the festival (below).
SoCal VegFest Cafe MoMa
Vegan Italian Sandwich
The vegan Italian sandwich form Cafe MoMa was SO good! They also had this Mama's Sweet Bread (pictured below) that I meant to pick up before I left...and I totally forgot! I'm so bummed about this.

But...the important thing that I wanted to mention is that they do not normally make this sweet bread in a vegan version, but they said that they would if they got a good response. So if you have the chance to try it and you love it, please be sure to let them know!
Cafe MoMa Mama's Sweet Bread
There were also some awesome speakers -- like Matt Ruscigno, MPH, RD...
Russ Muscigno at SoCal VegFest
And lots of booths giving away vegan coupons!
Vegan Coupons
Here's the Animal Rights Legislation Panel on the main stage (Jane Velez-Mitchell has the mic)...
Jane Velez-Mitchell on Animal Rights Panel
And here are the purveyors of the best vegan croutons I have ever eaten! (I came home with three bags.)
Kelly's Croutons
I tried lots of new things...

I'm completely intrigued by this vegan egg bowl. Had to order it to give it a try! pic.twitter.com/tSY38ZT6cW

— CheapVeganChick (@CheapVeganChick) October 30, 2016

here it is: the #vegan sunny side egg bowl. I haven't eaten a chicken egg in like 15(?) years, but seems close! pic.twitter.com/yaPzXL3AsG

...got Samson and Piper some vegan dog treats from Shaded Trails (which they loved!)...
Shaded Trails Vegan Dog Treats
...and met so many great people doing great things!
Citizen's Climate Lobby
I <3 Sean and Queenie from Ahimsa Essentials. If you did not have a chance to stop by and try some of their products, you might just have to drive to Arizona to hit up one of the markets where they regularly sell their wares. Or, of course, you could just visit their website and order some of their oils, soaps, scrubs and more.
Ahimsa Essentials at SoCal VegFest
I came home with their Om body butter, which I will be reviewing soon!
Ahimsa Essentials
I also came home with some of these awesome bamboo socks by Bambu Dru (for me and my wife!).

Bamboo Socks
Oh! And I can't believe that I have missed Miss Jones vegan, organic baking mixes and frostings right in the baking aisle at Vons! If you are like me and just assume there aren't any products for us on that aisle, keep an eye out for Miss Jones!
Miss Jones Vegan Organic Baking
All in all, SoCal VegFest was awesome!

I'm so glad I was able to attend both days to enjoy the hundreds of booths, thousands of attendees, tons of vegan food and awesome, compassionate vendors.

I can't wait for SoCal VegFest next year -- hope to see you there!

In the meantime, keep an eye out for several vegan product reviews coming soon as I have a chance to try out all of this vegan awesomeness I got at the festival!

Cheap, Vegan, Cruelty-Free Skincare & Beauty Finds at T.J. Maxx

11/6/2016

Vegan Beauty Finds
There are always cheap, vegan, cruelty-free beauty products, skincare products and hair care products at T.J. Maxx. I don't think I have every been there when I have not seen some great deals on vegan personal care products that were pretty hard to pass up. But I do believe this is the biggest selection I have ever found at one time -- which was pretty awesome!

For me, this was even more exciting, because I use almost all of these brands, and this was a great opportunity to try some new products at a discount.
Alba Cruelty Free Skincare
So much Giovanni, Alba, Andalou Naturals, Reviva Labs and Avalon Organics goodness...
Avalon Organics Discount
I LOVE rosewater spray and every time I see one, I am tempted to buy it. I had to force myself to leave these at T.J. Maxx for someone else to enjoy, since I already have one in my bedroom, my office, my purse, my car and my travel kit. Sometimes a girl has to make tough choices!
Reviva Labs Discount Products at T.J. Maxx
I usually use witch hazel as a toner, but I did pick up this Elastin & Collagen Skin Toner from Reviva Labs on this trip. I've been using it for about a week now and am really enjoying it.
Cruelty Free Skincare Products
Okay, so now that you have seen some pics of the vegan, cruelty-free beauty products T.J. Maxx has right now...here is what I brought home with me...
Vegan Beauty Finds at T.J. Maxx
I haven't had the chance to try everything yet, but I am using the toner I mentioned above, as well as the Andalou Naturals Floral Toner and Pore Minimizer. So far, I'm loving all three products and can't wait to try the others!

If you find great deals on vegan or cruelty-free personal care products, please let me know so that I can help spread the word!
