Leonor's Vegetarian Restaurant in North Hollywood

First, go here: Leonor's Vegetarian Restaurant.
Looks good, huh? This place is truly a Veggie Hidden Treasure... Delicious, healthy, vegetarian grub tucked away in a shopping center in North Hollywood.  Tujunga & Victory, to be exact.  So, let me preface by saying that not everything at Leonor's is vegan, but everything, to my knowledge, is vegetarian.  So, if you're a vegan, stay away from the cheese and several meat substitutes on the menu.  Just ask the lady at the front, she's very helpful and friendly! So, I ordered the Vegan Chicken Tostada (pictured here) and it was good.  A baked corn tortilla topped with pinto beans, vegan chicken, lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, red onion, and 2 salsas on the side (pico and spicy green).  Soooo, Leonor's doesn't use salt BUT they do supply a yummy spice substitute in a salt shaker that does the trick! They had me fooled! So, all in all, this place is great, lots of options (pizza, mexican, sandwiches, salads, soups, .....

  Oh, one last thing! The lady in front also recommended I try their specialty: Flax Seed Iced Tea! This thing is YUMMMMMMMM!!! If you go here, GET THIS and try to hold back from downing it in the first 5 seconds! Made with prune juice, flax seeds, and honey (so technically, not vegan)...



Enjoy!
