Coop <3


So recently my husband and I have been sort of frightened at some of the things that are unnecessarily put in our food (in the name of preservation, etc.), and have decided that they are no better than poison for our bodies. For this reason, we have made the decision to become vegan, simply because veganism cuts out the things that we find most disturbing--meats, dairy, eggs--and other things that are exposed to horrible environments and processing. I have been a vegetarian in the past (I stopped when we got married because I honestly wasn't doing it very healthfully, and my husband didn't understand back then why I was a vegetarian). Now we are older and wiser and ready to make the jump, but I'm afraid he's going to miss meat, so I'm trying to explore meat substitute products (which I have never explored before). My other concern was that being vegan may be too expensive for our budget.
Any recipe suggestions (esp. with meat subs.), or cost control ideas?
Also, if anyone has any good info pages on the different kinds of meat substitutes and their culinary uses, I would really appreciate it if you sent them my way :)

Thanks.
Sorry to be long (and ignorant), but also, if you knew of any common mistakes that new vegans make, please inform me! Like, what's the deal with gluten?

Help with a healthy vegetarian diet (life diet not lose weight diet)?




kadmarco


On new years I officially became a vegetarian. Everything was fine and I didn't face any cravings (I'm not much of a meat eater). But I saw that my diet has been reduced to a lot of carbs and cheese's.
I can't eat lettuce, raw tomatoes, or anything that could be found in a salad. I cant eat cauliflower, melons, or apples. It's a stomach condition...

That makes having a vegetarian lifestyle hard!!! I've been enjoying my food but I've been eating rice, pizza, spinach, a lot of home cooked Mexican food, and most of my meals contain a lot of cheese in them.
Help. I've been feeling a weaker lately and I think it's because of my poor diet. I'm going grocery shopping tonight. Any suggestions.



Answer
Hi , Even with your stomach condition it sounds like you can still eat lots of vegetarian food and eat healthier . You just need some ideas .

You can cut down the cheese when cooking Mexican food by adding Avocado (a very healthy fat) , how about cooked tomato " stewed " or diced and cooked ? ,

You can also make a Fajita out of sauteed veggies ..some choices to add are peppers, onions, and squash .

You can make veggie slopppy Joe's by simply substituting veggie meat .

How about veggie sausage and peppers on or with Italian bread ?

My mom makes awesome Vegan meatballs using TVP (texturized vegetable protein) instead of meat ..She also makes Vegan meatloaf this same way ..served with mashed potatoes .

Stuff peppers with a rice and veggie meat

Stuff Mushrooms with breadcrumbs and a bit veggie cheese.

There are lots of veggie meats today .. you can make sandwiches with veggie bacon , veggie chicken patties , veggie burgers, veggie hotdogs ,plus all the Veggie deli meats as pepperoni , ham , bologna ..etc all NON meat

Pasta dishes with cooked Veggies , Pesto , or Beans are great

Look in the frozen section for Amy's foods ( many are vegetarian) already prepared

I also adore curry foods ..look for Indian recipes

Add more fruit to your diet , Pineapple and strawberries are low calorie as well as oranges, tangerines , peaches, plums

The easiest way is to think of what you like eating and then just substitute .. begin to experiment more..it gets easier as time goes by ..

Roxas of O


I want to try different varieties of meatloaf, but something of the originality. I don't want anything that is too spicy (and I know some people like to put some hot spices into foods). Any kinds of recipe's for meatloaf is okay, but please make it easy and simple.


Answer
First of all, I'm a vegetarian. Okay, I eat fish, but so what! If I were to start eating meat again (which, after 15 years, is unlikely), there are two places I'd start: a Monte Cristo sandwich (frikkin divine--with mango chutney or honey!) and the meatloaf my mom used to make.

Actually, it was late in entering our family meal repertoire, and it was courtesy of the soup mix from Lipton.

I'm sure the Alton Brown recipe is fantastic. Haven't tried it, as Alton was probably still trying to be a cameraman when I last ate meat, but if you want to try the Lipton one (which looks dang easy), check the link below. I'm including a second link, which, according to a person who lost the Lipton recipe, is the first one he/she's liked since. Good luck.

Oh yeah, and stop eating that wicked meat. Unless you REALLY like it.

Is there such thing as "vegetarian" meatloaf? Can you help provide a recipe?




Terry 81


By meatloaf, I mean something that sort of resembles a meatloaf made from ground beef (except using soy flour or some other vegetarian ingredient). It can contain eggs and/or milk-- no need to be vegan. Thanks.


Answer
Here's the meatloaf recipe I use...I found it on vegcooking.com. The ironic thing about this is that I HATED meatloaf when I was a meat-eater, but I like this version (go figure!). Enjoy!

~Mama's Mock Meatloaf~
Better than what mom used to make. Serve it with ketchup, mashed potatoes, and gravy.

1 medium onion, diced
1/2 green pepper, diced (optional)
3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 packages beef–flavor Gimme Lean Beef
1/4 cup oatmeal, dry
2 slices white bread, crumbled
3 Tbsp. ketchup
2 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. pepper

Coating ingredients:
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 tsp. nutmeg

• Sauté the onion and green pepper in the oil over medium heat until soft. Combine in a bowl with the ground beef alternative, oatmeal, bread, ketchup, garlic salt, and pepper. Thoroughly mix with a spoon or your hands.
• Press the mixture into an oiled loaf pan. Cover with foil and bake at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix together the ingredients for the coating and set aside.
• Remove the loaf from the oven and turn it out onto a baking sheet. Spread the coating over the entire loaf. Cook, uncovered, for another 15 minutes.

What Vegetarian Meat substitutes actually taste like meat?




Adrianna C


My girlfriend is trying to eat less meat and I found a recipie for vegetarian lasagna, but it calls for meat substitute. Does this actually taste like meat?


Answer
Umm no, she does mean girlfriend. I don't know if you've heard, but some girls like girls. =P

I've never found a meat substitute that tasted exactly like meat, but I have had some that are so good that you don't miss the meat. I crumble tempeh into my vegan chili and it provides the meaty texture and comes out delicious. I fill lasagna with mushrooms and eggplant. I maake meatloaf with a blend of blak beans, lentils, and rye. I've heard that seitan also works very well in meat-centered recipes, such as vegan cheese steaks. I've never tried it because I am sensitive to gluten, but I've heard it's very good and meaty.

Does anyone have a recipe for vegan meatloaf that does not call for tofu?
Thanks Matt. Not exactly simple, haha, but it's vegan and it doesn't have tofu. :)



Answer
Buy some TVP (textured vegetable protein) most large grochery stores carry it. You can also get it at a health food store.

2 cups TVP
1 cup water
1 cup bbq sauce
1 table spoon corn starch
Wheat flour as needed

Mix water and bbq sauce and heat till almost boiling. Add TVP. Let stand for a few minutes. Add corn starch then a little flour until it make a nice ball. Put into a loaf pan and cook the same way you would a true meat loaf.

Anyone have any great vegetarian/vegan recipes?




Just right


I am going vegetarian. I am not yet sure what kind of vegetarian. I attempted this before and I lasted two weeks. I am trying again. I am starting out by cutting out red meat, which I rarely eat anyway. Then I will continue by cutting out white meat, and whatever else I decide to live without. Any great recipes for me anyone? :)
Please and thank you



Answer
It's important not to just cut out meat. You have to be thinking about beans, nuts, seeds, soy, eggs/dairy (if not going vegan) and ways to make those.

Try substituting beans for meat in your favourite recipes, eg black beans, partly mashed into a packet of the taco seasoning and water you'd add to ground beef for taco night. Try grating a portobello mushroom into tomato sauce instead of ground beef. I like tofu in stirfries instead of chicken (takes practice to have tofu taste other than bland - experiment!). I like making meatloaf with a can of white beans instead of meat - mash them and use your favourite meatloaf recipe from there...

Many meals can naturally be made vegetarian... load a pizza crust with tomato sauce and tons of veggies before baking, make a frittata for dinner, pasta with tomato sauce and vegetarian parmesan cheese (look for one with bacterial culture, not rennet)...

Lunch and breakfast are easy... most of my friends don't know I'm veg when they see me eating pj or cheese sandwiches for lunch! Many breakfast cereals are higher in protein, eg. kashi/Vector.

Tastespotting.com is a round-up of many food blogs from around the world. They have a search term, eg veggie burger, and frequently feature vegetarian/vegan menu items for when you're looking for something new.

dolcezza20


I am just starting to cook with TVP granules and really would like to make some burger patties.
TVP - Texturized Vegetable Protein...



Answer
I am a former chef and when I make mine with TVP, I generally puree some of the veg in the food processor add some chickpeas and chickpea flour, even a bit of tahini sesame paste, available at Health food stores or any Indian market, even some whole wheat flour.

Also, at the health food store there is a protien powder made from veggies, it is a good binder for burger, veggie meatballs for spaghetti sauce and a meatloaf made with TVP, I use it at least once a week, and it is great in a veg chili too.

Vegetarians and or Vegans, what's your lunch?

vegan meatloaf recipes easy

vegan meatloaf recipes easy image



Shape the


I'm stuck for ideas for lunches.
I go to school everyday, so it's gotta be an easy one. And unless I can make it and put it in a thermos, no hot foods either.

What do you usually pack?



Answer
Things such as hummus and peanut butter are tasty and convenient solutions for a lunch on the go. Look into buying vegetarian canned soups to pack into a thermo. Most grocers now carry lunch meat alternatives such as veggie hot dogs and tofurky slices- so you may want to consider trying some of those.

gelatin-free yogurt (dairy or nondairy)
fresh fruit or fruit cups
granola
hummus
peanut butter
veggie dip
carrot sticks
celery sticks
cereal
crackers
pretzels
salads
veggie soups
chips
soy milk

Another good idea is to see if your local grocers sell vegetarian-friendly MRE's to the public. MRE's are specially packed foods that can be heated without the use of a microwave or fire. There is a heating pad that is activated with water. Soldiers have and still do use them abroad when at war out in the rugged terrain. These foods include spaghetti, macaroni, veggie meatloaf, and more. http://mreinfo.com/

If you don't mind taking a little time to prepare some of your meals in advance, I have included a link to help you discover and try out vegetarian lunch recipes from a vegan mother's blog. http://veganlunchbox.blogspot.com/

Help with a healthy vegetarian diet (life diet not lose weight diet)?

vegetarian meatloaf recipe tvp
 on ... TVP and Tofu Meatloaf Recipe - Healthy-Recipes, Vegetarian Recipes
vegetarian meatloaf recipe tvp image



kadmarco


On new years I officially became a vegetarian. Everything was fine and I didn't face any cravings (I'm not much of a meat eater). But I saw that my diet has been reduced to a lot of carbs and cheese's.
I can't eat lettuce, raw tomatoes, or anything that could be found in a salad. I cant eat cauliflower, melons, or apples. It's a stomach condition...

That makes having a vegetarian lifestyle hard!!! I've been enjoying my food but I've been eating rice, pizza, spinach, a lot of home cooked Mexican food, and most of my meals contain a lot of cheese in them.
Help. I've been feeling a weaker lately and I think it's because of my poor diet. I'm going grocery shopping tonight. Any suggestions.



Answer
Hi , Even with your stomach condition it sounds like you can still eat lots of vegetarian food and eat healthier . You just need some ideas .

You can cut down the cheese when cooking Mexican food by adding Avocado (a very healthy fat) , how about cooked tomato " stewed " or diced and cooked ? ,

You can also make a Fajita out of sauteed veggies ..some choices to add are peppers, onions, and squash .

You can make veggie slopppy Joe's by simply substituting veggie meat .

How about veggie sausage and peppers on or with Italian bread ?

My mom makes awesome Vegan meatballs using TVP (texturized vegetable protein) instead of meat ..She also makes Vegan meatloaf this same way ..served with mashed potatoes .

Stuff peppers with a rice and veggie meat

Stuff Mushrooms with breadcrumbs and a bit veggie cheese.

There are lots of veggie meats today .. you can make sandwiches with veggie bacon , veggie chicken patties , veggie burgers, veggie hotdogs ,plus all the Veggie deli meats as pepperoni , ham , bologna ..etc all NON meat

Pasta dishes with cooked Veggies , Pesto , or Beans are great

Look in the frozen section for Amy's foods ( many are vegetarian) already prepared

I also adore curry foods ..look for Indian recipes

Add more fruit to your diet , Pineapple and strawberries are low calorie as well as oranges, tangerines , peaches, plums

The easiest way is to think of what you like eating and then just substitute .. begin to experiment more..it gets easier as time goes by ..


Some sites for great recipes are:

Vegan Forever

How can i be a vegetarian and survive in the south?




LeeB!


As an African American in south Louisiana, soul food is life! I decided to become a vegetarian in order to lower my blood pressure and my weight permanently. I'm also hoping that i can help with my depression.

How can i get through the holidays and family gatherings without fried chicken, barbecued ribs, meatballs, gumbo, spicy chili and even my sister's meatloaf? And what about seafood??? Fried catfish, trout, craw fish, shrimp...need i go on?

Please help. I've never even gone one meal in my life without some form of meat. I don't know where to start. Wait. I can't eat turkey either! Or rice dressing. :(


And what about spicy?? I love spicy chicken, chili, beef and everything!
Wow McB! You really are from the south!!
I'm not obese. I just don't weigh what i'd like to.



Answer
With lots of help, and fortunately for you there's lots available!

I have been vegetarian for over 11 years now, and let me tell you, you won't actually be missing much. I will explain. :) There are "meat replacements" for pretty much everything these days, and there are usually vegetarian recipes to fill in the blanks where there are not.

Barbecued ribs, meatballs, chili, hot dogs, chicken, spicy chicken nuggets, bologna, burgers... all of these have vegetarian versions that are delicious! What makes spicy chili spicy isn't the beef, it's the spices... replace 1 lb. ground beef with 1 lb. TVP in your favorite recipe and voila you have your chili you love! I LOVE spicy food -- trust me I know. :) Tacos and Sloppy Joes - same thing. :)

I don't know a lot about seafood options, other than tuna salad, because I never was a seafood fan, but they are out there as well.

Just relax and go about it the same way all great things are accomplished in this world... one step at a time. You can do this. :) It's a great choice for your health, as I am sure your doctor has told you!!

My advice... don't overwhelm yourself. Start this week by cutting meat out of one meal per day... next week, two meals per day. Build yourself a repertoire of options so that you do not feel that you are being deprived. You won't be deprived, in fact, chances are your options will increase exponentially as you enter this new adventure with an open mind.

Good luck and enjoy!

VEGAN food? anyone? :)?

vegan meatloaf recipe tempeh
 on ... yummies on yeah that vegan shit saw lindy loo s post on vegan
vegan meatloaf recipe tempeh image



Cassie


hi, just wondering if you vegans would like to suggest some good vegan food to me, that are nutritous and maybe have calcium, iron, and/or protein in it. I started to be vegan for like 3-4ish weeks and dont have many recipes. (also is there any good replacements that you have tried...cause i am never going to eat a sad,dead,animal?) :(
thank you.



Answer
Lots of foods have protein or amino acids in them. Getting enough protein should not be an issue if you eat a well balanced diet. Protein rich foods include legumes (beans & lentils), nuts, seeds, tempeh (a soy product). You can see some basic protein info at http://www.vegsoc.org/info/protein.html

Calcium shouldn't be a concern either if you are eating healthy and well balanced. Greens, broccoli, and soy products (though you should avoid most un-fermented soy products like tofu, soy beans, and soy milk) are high in calcium.

Iron is a bit more difficult to obtain in a vegan diet, but still not a huge problem. For a couple articles about iron you can see http://www.groovyvegetarian.com/2008/08/23/iron-rich-foods-for-vegetarians/ and http://www.vegfamily.com/health/boost-iron-intake.htm

Vegan recipes can be found at numerous places online including:

http://vegweb.com/

http://allrecipes.com/Recipes/Everyday-Cooking/Vegetarian/Main.aspx

http://vegkitchen.com/index.htm

http://www.101cookbooks.com/vegan_recipes/

http://www.recipestar.com/recipes

http://www.recipezaar.com/recipes.php?categ=169%2C141%2C12%2C299

You can also modify many of your favorite recipes by eliminating the meat. Not all recipes can be modified (eg, meatloaf) but many such as pastas, salads, stir-fries, casseroles can be made vegan by leaving out the meat and adding additional vegetables or even meat substitutes.

Recipe for mock meatloaf?




La Vie Boh


I want to try to make a mock meatloaf out of soy crumbles. Does anyone have a recipe that you have actually tried? I already know there are countless recipes on line but I'm looking for an already tried recipe that's tasty : )

Thanks!
caroline,

Have you tried that recipe? I've seen it online and the reviews suggest it falls apart and does not form because there is no binding agent.
I ended up finding one with Gimme Lean and made it last night. My omnivore hubby said it tasted like meatloaf LOL



Answer
I tried this and LOVED it:

Best Ever Vegan Mini Meatloaf
INGREDIENTS
Makes 10 mini meatloaves. Cut in half if you aren't feeding 3 growing boys.
- 2 8.5 oz pkgs tempeh, simmered in boiling water for 10 mins, cooled, then coarsely grated
- 1 large onion, coarsely grated
- 4 cloves garlic, finely grated
- 1 cup instant oatmeal
- 2/3 cup vital wheat gluten
- 2 tsp ground fennel seed
- 1 tsp sage
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp parsley
- 1 tsp marjoram
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp HP sauce
- 2 tbsp BBQ sauce
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp browning sauce (optional)
- 1/4 cup (or more) water
Glaze
- generous 2/3 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp mustard
METHOD
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 9 x 13 baking pan.
1. Mix grated tempeh, onion, garlic, oatmeal, flour, and spices in a large bowl. The spices are really up to you. I like a well spiced and complex flavour.
2. Add in sauces and oil, and enough water so you are able to mash everything up with your fingers. Knead/mush/mash for a few mins to mix everything well.
3. Divide dough into 10 pieces and shape into small loaves. Actually, they end up looking like lumps/rocks, not really laoves. Place into oiled pan.
4. Mix together ingredients for the glaze and spoon evenly on top of each loaf. Make sure the whole loaf is covered.
5. Bake, uncovered, for 50-60 mins, until glaze darkens.

Vegetarian "Meat Loaf"?




JennyP


One of my staff is a vegetarian but remembers loving meatloaf! Since her last day at work is coming up on the 28th, I wanted to try to make something that would satisfy her craving while sticking with the vegetarian diet she prefers. Help!


Answer
Go to the Morningstar Farms website (www.morningstarfarms.com). They have a recipe for "meatless loaf" using their meatless crumbles. It's really good if you follow the recipe exactly. I've tried adding things and it doesn't come out as firm - but then again, I always had a hard time with "real" meatloaf too. LOL Don't forget to add ketchup on top during the last few minutes of baking... makes it taste much more like meatloaf than if you leave it plain. :)

What should I do when inlaws have taboo conversations?




Lolagirl


Every time we have a family dinner it's the same conversations. MIL always starts these debates that we all clearly have different opinions about.

Examples:

my fiancé is vegan and I rarely eat meat or animal products and his family doesn't agree with it. They always try to make us eat meat at dinner and ask us why we have those diets and when we try to explain our reasons they won't hear it and make us feel like we are bad for not eating meat.

Then the dreaded CANCER conversation. They always bring it up. It has been proven that eating lots of fast food and junk food is linked to cancer and other diseases. They always put me on the spot and when I reply they shut me up and basically say all those facts are bogus and getting a disease is like Russian roulette you can get it no matter what you eat or what kind of lifestyle you have.

Politics, faith and religion..it's really just table manners and I don't think anyone should ever talk about those topics while having family dinners! But like usual each person has their personal views and things always get heated with everyone because its MIL favorite topic of conversation.

His family thinks they know everything and try to debunk everything and think their opinions are the only correct way of thinking. I hate going to dinners because they always push me into the conversations. We always just leave right after eating because we don't want to deal with it. They never have any facts to back up what they are trying to prove, but they always think they are right and know everything.

Mermaids and aliens..wtf?? MIL and BIL always argue about their existence. Mermaids! Are you kidding me?? MIL thinks they are real. That's fine with me but BIL thinks she's nuts and they always argue about it. Then they try to drag me and my fiancé into it. MIL ends up upset.

It's always MIL who starts it all. When I tried to explain that I feel uncomfortable with certain topics, they basically say I am too sensitive and family debates are good to have. Please help be we don't want to cut them off but my fiancé and I are sick if it. When he tries to talk to them about not having these conversations anymore then another argument comes up because they are just kind of closed minded and don't care about anyone else's opinions. Are we handling this wrong?
I usually sit there quietly! And I'm not a vegan, I just don't really like meat. What's so wrong with that?
My fiancé does take my side. He doesn't want to go to family dinners any more. Especially because the try to tell us how to raise our child..



Answer
LOL Are you living my life?! Seriously...this is what happens in my family as well, only it's my mother who always trying to get my husband into conversations or debates that she knows will get him going. It can be a big problem, and for a long time, my husband didn't even want to go over to my parents house because it was always a big, stressful situation or confrontation.

So, my husband and I started therapy about a year ago, and this is one of the issues that we have been working on. Our therapist has given us some great advice, and I am happy to say that after employing the suggestions and practices that she has given to us, we enjoy lots of nice dinners with my parents now.

First things first...because they are my parents, it is MY job to be my husband's advocate. My loyalties must be with my husband at all times. This was tough for me, because I am an only child and very close to my parents, but I realized that my husband is really my immediate family now, and my parents are secondary to my marriage, so I cannot allow them to do things that will purposely drive a wedge into my marriage. I had a sit down talk with my parents, explaining the situation, how it makes me feel and how it makes my husband feel, and as afraid as I was to have the conversation, in the end, it went very well, because my parents love me enough to realize that they were hurting me by creating turmoil with my husband.

Secondly, my husband had to practice not getting roped into these debates and conversations. This was tough for him, but he learned to either be quiet or to change the subject in a really slick way...the therapist helped him with that. The trick is when these debates first start, you have to diffuse them by turning the attention to something else, like asking your mother in law where she got the recipe for the fabulous meatloaf you just ate, or if she has any advice on what you can do to keep your house a little cleaner...things that will work to her own feelings of greatness and make her feel as though she has something to teach that you want to learn. If she attempts to avoid this type of distraction, then you just have to be as agreeable as possible, because she is looking for a fight...you have to say things like "you know, I can understand your point" or "you have a really good arguement, there"...this will diffuse the situation because people like this thrive and feed off of the dramatic confrontation, and if you don't allow the confrontation to happen, then they will get bored and move on.

Lastly, if none of this works, then it will be your husband's job to stand up for you and sit down with his family and let them know that you will not be spending as much time together unless they can "behave". When he comes out on your side and basically says that if things don't change you guys won't be around, then it's likely his parents/family will rethink thier behaviour.

On a final note, I would suggest that maybe you and your husband see a therapist that can help you with this. I only say this because a good family/couples therapist will have more in depth suggestions for you that will help a lot more than what I can give to you in this short space. You'll be amazed at what you can learn from a good therapist, and if you don't get these things under control now, then it will only get worse and start to harm your marriage. Good luck!!!

What Vegetarian Meat substitutes actually taste like meat?




Adrianna C


My girlfriend is trying to eat less meat and I found a recipie for vegetarian lasagna, but it calls for meat substitute. Does this actually taste like meat?


Answer
Umm no, she does mean girlfriend. I don't know if you've heard, but some girls like girls. =P

I've never found a meat substitute that tasted exactly like meat, but I have had some that are so good that you don't miss the meat. I crumble tempeh into my vegan chili and it provides the meaty texture and comes out delicious. I fill lasagna with mushrooms and eggplant. I maake meatloaf with a blend of blak beans, lentils, and rye. I've heard that seitan also works very well in meat-centered recipes, such as vegan cheese steaks. I've never tried it because I am sensitive to gluten, but I've heard it's very good and meaty.

Vegetarian meals made by (and for) a teen?

vegan meatloaf recipe whole foods
 on ... point to try new foods and recipes; especially vegan friendly recipes
vegan meatloaf recipe whole foods image



26242.


My mom is not supportive of my vegetarianism, so most of the time I'll have to cook my own meals. I need recipes for some simple meals with EVERYDAY INGREDIENTS.

I can handle breakfast on my own, but I'm desperate for lunch and dinner recipes. Lunch would have to be something pre-made and packable.

I'm an ovo-lacto vegetarian, so there's no need to substitute dairy or eggs.

Thank you so much!!



Answer
Hi, great choice to become a vegetarian. 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 100+ 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.

Looking for vegan food options that aren't soy substitutes.?




evil_gummi


Alright, due to medical recommendations, I'm removing animal products from my diet. I'm not going the unhealthy meat substitute route where you eat a bunch of gross processed mock-meat foods. I've been eating mostly fruit and veggies (variety of deep leafy greens, etc), making sure to get in B12, taking a vitamin supplement and tofu for protein. What cookbooks and recipes would you recommend for a vegan? Also, any opinions on raw foods?


Answer
Congratulations on your healthy new diet! Don't worry. You will have endless options for wonderful meals without needing to rely on overly-processed foods and fake meats. Often if you wish to make something similar to a burger, hot dog, meatloaf, or meatball - it can be made out of beans, chickpeas, lentils, walnuts, etc.

Also, for B-12, you might want to check out nutritional yeast flakes that you sprinkle on top of your food. It tastes a little like cheese, and you will notice it in numerous recipes for vegans. Red Star is probably the most common brand. You can get it in the bulk food bins at Whole Foods or order it online.
