Vegan “Egg Nog” Recipe
The holidays are here which means time for the delicious seasonal drink, egg nog. For a much healthier, vegan alternative, you can make it without eggs using a bit of tofu and some soy milk. This refreshing drink can be made anytime of year; it’s so good and easy you’ll probably want to make it all the time anyway!
Ingredients (vegan) :
- 2 10-oz packages silken regular or low-fat tofu
- 16 oz. vanilla soymilk
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/4 tablespoon ground tumeric
- 1/2 to 1 cup rum or brandy (for a non-alcoholic version you can use fruit juice)
- nutmeg to taste
Preparation:
In a blender, combine all ingredients except nutmeg; blend thoroughly, stopping occasionally to scrape down sides. Serve well-chilled and dusted with nutmeg.
Serves 8

i became a Vegan three years ago and i can say that my health have been very very good. meat and dairy substitutes like soy also works well for the body.
Why is it that most people think that a detox diet comprises of starving yourself for days on end and only drink some foul tasting lemon drink?
There are many foods that help with the process of detoxifiaction of the body so why would you deprive yourself?
Delicious! Thanks for sharing this recipe.
