Maryam is the events director for the SoCal Vegfest, an all day party on Saturday, October 20th and Sunday, October 21st!!! It’s fabulous fun with fantastic food, hundreds of vendors, cooking demos and more!
If you need a quick and simple pick me up, this is the salad for you! Look at Maryam chop away. We have never seen someone chop like that! “Speedy vegan” is her new screenname for these amazing chopping skills. Jane is scared for her fingers but don’t worry all of Maryam’s fingers made it away unscathed. The fruit did not. Jane is blown away by this huge salad and Maryam’s cooking style! This is a “life-changing experience” for all of us!
