I chose to be vegan because I love animals, not because I wanted to give up my favourite noms!
I'm a huge fan of things that I like to dub facon=fake bacon, nausage=none sausage, feef=fake beef.
Bot those aren't the only things. One mistake I didn't want to make was to remove animal products and replace them with heavy starches (potatoes, rice, pasta, bread, sugar). Some fun things to try:
1. Put raw cauliflower in a food processor and grind until it is finely chopped (not pureed), and it is a great replacement for rice!
2. Spaghetti squash - This works great instead of pasta noodles!
3. When making things like goulash or shepherds pie, use parsnips and squash instead of potatoes.
What other great tricks does everyone have?
