Cornish Pasty here in Phoenix is one of my favorite restaurants. They have great vegan options, but unfortunately, their amazing soups are not on that list. So I decided to veganize their Spinach, Mushroom, and Walnut soup (the original has cream in it). The results turned out delicious!
Last week, a friend treated me to a meal at one of my favorite places! She had seen a coupon for Sweet Tomatoes and knowing that I don’t eat meat, she thought this place would be right down my alley. And she was right!
Sweet Tomatoes has a ridiculously large salad bar and a bunch of warm options (soups, pizza, pasta, and muffins). As a vegan, I can usually have one of their soups (check out their options online here) and they always have baked sweet potatoes and russet potatoes.
The bill was $30 for two adults and four kids… so if you have kids, this place really is a steal. I’ve been through the drive through with this family and the bill generally adds up to $20-25 for the five of them. So for $5-10 more you can get a much healthier, more filling meal. And you may even be as surprised as I was at how much salad the kids eat!
