Babette’s in East Hampton

I was super excited to read about Babette’s in East Hampton. They offer many different vegan dishes. When we went we were happy to get an outside table but I was a little astounded by the prices for the kind of food it was. But hey, its the Hamptons, I get it. The Lentil Vegetable Walnut burger with avocado and soy cheese was decent, but we liked the one at Banzai Burger better. We also had the vegan Tempeh Reuben which was super yummy. The sweet potato fries and smoothies were good too 🙂 I would go back but maybe try some of the other vegan options. I love that there are many! Fun!

‘Chicken salad’ sandwich

Ahhhh Skinny Bitches! I love those fabulous ladies, Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin! They have had the most amazing impact on the vegan movement and helping people eating a healthy vegan diet. Everything I have made from them has been amazing 🙂

This ‘Chicken salad’ sandwich recipe was quick to make and the perfect quick fix for lunches. You can eat this salad or bread, put it on lettuce wraps or eat it straight.

‘Chicken salad’ sandwich
Recipe from ‘Skinny Bitch in the Kitch’

Makes 3 or 4 sandwiches

• 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon coarse nutritional yeast
• 1/2 tablespoon agave nectar
• 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 1/4 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 2 cups chopped or shredded vegan chicken strips or chunks (thawed, if frozen)(I used seitan)
• 1/4 cup halved (quartered if large) seedless red grapes (optional)(I did not use grapes)
• 1 celery stalk, finely diced
• 1/4 small red or white onion, finely diced (I used shallots)
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
• 6 to 8 slices vegan whole-wheat bread

  1. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, yeast, agave nectar, salt, curry powder and pepper. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, grapes (if using), celery, onion, and parsley. Add the mayonnaise mixture to the chicken mixture, tossing gently.
  2. Spread the chicken salad on 3 or 4 slices of bread, top with remaining 3 or 4 slices, and serve.
