All that crispy kale makes Emily Deschanel go fast.

The Bones star was in the mood for walking after enjoying a healthy fuel-charged meal at Crossroads vegan restaurant in West Hollywood on Thursday.

Emily was joined by her writer-actor husband David Hornsby but she seemed to forget that point as she sped down the street.

The 36-year-old actress was carrying extra weight in the form of her bouncing baby boy Henry, 20 months.

The Los Angeles, California native was dressed down in blue jeans, black blouse and black checked blazer, along with black low-heeled sandals.

Emily, the older sister of actress Zooey, wore her sandy brown hair caught up in a casual bun and out of Henry's grasping range.

The youngster sported a grey and green jumper, jeans and bright red Crocs.

Emily, who plays Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan on the Fox comedy-drama, is currently enjoying a hiatus and obviously a stop at her favourite restaurant was top priority.

The outspoken vegan and animal rights supporter raves about the new gourmet vegan eatery co-founded by Tai Ronnen, whose classical dishes have also delighted Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres.

Emily has even taken to her Twitter page to pat Tai on the back.

'Had another incredible meal last night at @Crossroads8284 ! Thanks to @TalRonnen amazing!' Emily recently tweeted.

Not surprisingly Emily and her husband - who wed in a vegan-catered ceremony in September 2010 - are raising their boy vegetarian.

'We are raising Henry vegetarian,' Emily told Mother Nature Network. 'He will be mostly vegan and always have a choice in the matter, but we will educate him about why we make the choices we do with our food. 

'My husband isn't one hundred percent vegan. I read Disease-Proof Your Child by Dr. Fuhrman, and think it is a must-read for parents trying to raise a healthy child,' she added.

Meanwhile Emily says directing a Bones episode may be in her future, but later.

'I would just have to wait until my son was big enough that I didn't feel like I had to be with him as much,' the actress explained. 

'Right now, I take him with me every day. I see him during my breaks. I'm still practicing as much attachment parenting as possible.

'I want to put my child first. But it is a goal for me, possibly next season or if we have a tenth season, or maybe both. We'll see.'

Don't think David Boreanaz is vegan so of course she couldn't possibly marry him. I liked her until now why do these people who don't eat meat, or don't drink, or don't smoke, feel the need to ram it down everyone's throat. Oh and by the way I eat very little meat, don't drink and don't smoke. But when I invite people or am with people I don't ram it down their throats that I don't drink etc etc. Don't care if she lives on liquids alone, but don't think you should be doing that to a kid.

Is it really a printable story when all you write about is the clothes they are wearing in the pictures we can see, stating the obvious comes to mind! LOVE BONES!

Looks a healthy enough little chap to me. I daresay emily knows what she is doing , being a vegan isn't just about lettuce leaves as some people think.

Poor kid, he has looney vegan parents. I am sure she wasn't raised as a vegan when she was a baby and developing brain cells, muscles, bone density, etc. It didn't seem to hurt her, but she puts her child in developmental danger. Just another ignorant Hollyweird actress.

No wonder she loves her job... David Boreanaz is way hotter than him! I know looks aren't everything but you need something to look at

-Juliefost1967, I was raised vegetarian and I'm now a vegan and also currently passing my first year of uni at a 2:1 standard. Children don't need animal protein to develop 'properly' - cows milk contains hormones not intended for the human body, but for cow young. If veggie children are breast feed and follow a healthy balanced diet, they will turn out just as well as those children raised on animal product filled diets. Please do not disparage a lifestyle you clearly don't follow or understand.

Vegetarian 's and especially vegans are not right . Honestly, when was the last time you saw a healthy looking vegan??

Each to their own but it's a fact- the world could not grow enough food to support an all-vegan population. We are naturally omnivorous - a bit of this and a bit of that!
