I am already a vegetarian. I am, the only one in my family. I am 14

I want to become vegan but still be healthy. The rest of my family are big meat eaters. Can you give me some simple recipes and some advice on being vegan?

Also, do you know anything about the Hallelujah Diet?
Actually, vegan is one of the most healthiest diets. It cuts down on bone problems and cancer. Also, obesity, diabetes, and other serious illnesses.



Answer
Hi, great choice to become a vegan. I totally understand what you are going through.

I am also a teen and have been a vegan for almost four years now. I am still the only one in the whole entire family of 50+ meat lovers, so as you can imagine I had to be extremely focused, determined and self motivated to pull it off. I remember my first days as a vegan asking around on-line and I never got any satisfactory answers, so I had to learn it the hard way. Through that experience I decided to help others and share my knowledge with you.
FYI WITH THE FOLLOWING RECIPIES YOU WILL GET ALL THE VITAMINS YOU NEED. HOWEVER YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE SOME VITAMINS AND PROTIEN POWDER ON THE SIDE! Don’t forget to regularly see the doctor.

The Hallelujah Diet is being used by hundreds and thousands of people around the world to accomplish what our present day medical system cannot. People are getting well from a wide array of disorders. In fact the Hallelujah Diet has been so successful that is was recently adopted by the successful Oasis of Hope hospital. Why? You've probably heard the saying "God chose the simple things to confound the wise". You can't get any simpler than the Hallelujah Diet. God didn't create our bodies to run on drugs or artificial, over processed and over cooked foods. Look at what God created us to eat, feed it to your body for several months, get a little exercise and you will be amazed at the difference. It is time to stop fighting the symptoms and change what we eat! There recently was a news report on TV on a large study that proved that folks in the 60's and older benefit more from fresh fruits and vegetables than they do from vitamins. Amazing, perhaps they'll prove that God was right after all....

I think that being vegan is quite similar to this diet in that you are leading a healthy lifestyle.

Tips for new vegetarian?

Q. Any tips? AND I dont want the simple "stop eating all meat in your diet" because I have been a vegetarian for 2 days and want to keep going.
I might get personal trainer cooking today for the recipes and stuff
but recipes help! THX :D


Answer
Eat a lot of legumes to replace meat in your diet. In case you don't know legumes are beans, nut, and barley. If you crave meat here are easy substitutes:

Beef Stock>>>Mushroom Stock

Chicken stock>>>Veggie stock

Beef Tacos>>>Bean Burritos

Steak>>>Suted Mushrooms


Recpies:

Banana Muffins

1/4 cup oil or melted margarine
1 cup sugar
2 cups flour

1 cup chopped walnuts (optional—see other options listed below)
• Mash bananas (overripe ones make the best bread). Add oil/margarine and sugar. Mix well.
• Sift the flour, salt, and baking soda together and add to the banana mixture. Mix until the flour is blended (do not beat).
Pour into muffin pans or a bread pan and bake at 360°F until a toothpick comes out clean.
