When Rhea became vegan, there were no places in her Bronx neighborhood to eat, so she learned to cook, mostly by watching TV cooking shows, especially Christina Pirello and Rachael Ray. That led to the creation of The "V" Word website, which focuses on vegan versions of favorite, familiar foods. In addition, Rhea has written several e-cookbooks, which are available on her website. Rhea hopes to spread the "V" Word to bring more compassion into the world, and it is her dream to become the vegan Rachael Ray. Read more about Rhea Parsons

How to Prepare Banana Mash Yam Cakes [Vegan]
- Put the yam cubes into a large pot, cover with cold water. Cover the pot and bring to a boil. Let cook until the yams are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the yams and set aside.
- In the same pot add the banana, the butter and the orange juice. Cook for about 2 minutes. Add the yams back into the pot. Add the maple syrup, nutmeg, salt, pepper and orange zest. Mix it all together, mashing the yams.
For the Yam Cakes
- Take refrigerated leftover mashed yams. Add about ½ cup of flour to absorb the moisture (you may need more or less). Form into patties and fry until golden brown. Enjoy!
