I’m going to try a vegan diet for one month and see how I feel. Ever since I found out I am allergic to milk and eggs, which were my main protein most days, I’ve been eating more and more meat to compensate. I really don’t like it on so many levels and without dairy and eggs if I take away meat that pretty much equals a vegan diet.
I was a vegetarian for many years in my twenties so I have recipes I can adapt and my son bought me some vegan cookbooks for my birthday and there’s always the net.
I love beans and lentils, I always eat a lot of veggies so that doesn’t need to change, I have been stockpiling seeds and nuts in preparation for the trial and have recently fallen back in love with peanut butter and want to try almond butter too.
I think I’m going to start a thread where people can share their favorite vegan recipes. I know there are many vegans on this site.
You might want to supplement Vitamin B12 while youre going vegan. I did vegan three different times and my B12 blood levels went very low each time. I still supplement three times a week just to be sure, even though I eat a standard diet now.
I make minestrone soup with soup mix in it.
Soup mix is lentils and beans.
It just makes it more nourishing , filling … it’s cheap n nice dish to make.simmer low heat one hour.ready.
Truly hope you become vegan for your health, the animals and environment etc💕
