While 2016 may go down in recent history as the year that kicked everyone’s bums, it wasn’t all bad. At Crunchy Vegan, it was the start of something big, and we welcome the end-of-the-year as a milestone. As we look back and celebrate our first 8 months as a site, we are counting our blessings — our post blessings, that is.

We’ve truly had some great moments. We launched our site, invited contributing authors, made new vegan friends, and have begun to build a resource for our vegan and not-yet-vegan friends. Check out some of the top stories from the first year at Crunchy. Vegan.!

Recipe | Vegan Field Roast Nachos

September | The Crunchy Vegan Gal

What a thrill it was for the Crunchy Vegan Gal to win the first Field Roast Meatless Monday Night Football challenge! She can’t wait for the warmer months so she can start using her new grill tools. If you missed the recipe she created to win the challenge, it’s up on the site for you to try out. Super Bowl party anyone?

Here’s Why You Don’t Want to Go Vegan

May | The Crunchy Vegan Gal

We thought we were being sneaky with this title — and, you know what? As the third most viewed post on the site, we think it worked! Crunchy Vegan is not just a site for those of us who have already made the transition, but also for those we love who are looking for guidance. And surely we all remember how difficult that transition can be. We hope this post and others like it are a resource for our friends and family. We already know it, but we want everyone else to know that vegan is better 😉
