What’s “The Platter”?
The Blooming Platter offers a growing collection of recipes for creative appetizers, beverages, snacks, soups, salads, sides and entrees with a tendency toward ethnic fusion dishes, lightened-up comfort foods and updated classics with a twist. A baker since childhood, I also include a burgeoning selection of dessert recipes that will tempt even the staunchest dairy-lover. Here's to compassionate plant-based cooking and eating!

About Betsy DiJulio
When Betsy—an award-winning art teacher and practicing artist—is not teaching, making art, reading, writing, or walking her new dogs, Patsy and Urban, she can often be found in downward dog on her yoga mat.
And after that? A little food, a little more wine, and a lot of communing with friends, family, and students (well, no wine for her students).
In addition to authoring The Blooming Platter Cookbook, Betsy is a regular contributor, columnist, or featured writer for:
- SchoolArts
- Coastal Virginia Magazine
- VEER
- The Virginian-Pilot
- Alimentum
Look for the occasional link here on her website.
Besides art and cooking, Betsy admits to being a little obsessed with:
-Anything eco- or animal-friendly
-Artisanal and small business ventures
-Day hiking
-Consignment fashion
-Design in its many forms, especially interiors and landscapes
Did someone say mid-century modern?

Hi there. I appreciate your support so much. I truly appreciate it. I would be happy to link to your blog except, at this point, I'm just linking to vegan food sites. If I didn't limit my blogroll in some way, it would get out of hand. It's pretty long as it is and I've got loads more that I should add. Thank you so much for understanding the need to be very targeted. Best of luck with "To Peasants Alike,"

While, I am not vegan, we eat little meat, so I am looking for vegan sites to add to my mental list, which means I have to remember. I like what I see. I have to come back and check out more recipes.
