Almost vegan. I eat wild caught fish once in a while.

Born in a family of vegetarians (due to religious reasons). I even find it tough to hunt and eat animals in video games like Tomb Raider :P

Very long time Vegan here , hello all and nice to meet you .. went veg at 15 , vegan at 25 .. Now I am 58 .. I have also taken many nutritional courses thru the years , but NOT a nutritionist .. if I can help anyone ..please ask away ..
I wanted to answer a bit about protein as many people do not really understand it .. protein is in so many foods you already eat .. most people get too much protein .. you almost never find protein deficiency in non 3rd world countries ..
beans, nuts, seeds are top choices but also veggies like peas, brocolli , potatoes and just about you eat .. so the key is intake and balance .. I so eat tempeh , and setain .. tofu .. at times ..
I do like chips now and then .. even cookies and pie .. I love food.. italian decent must be in my blood .. haha

I eat whatever I am in the mood for and honestly I really never worried about what I was eating .. More I worried and excluded what was truly unhealthy .. like high fructose corn syrup .. artificial sweeteners .. bad oils ..

so just to say I get a blood work up every year .. dont take vitamins .. only because I didnt need them ( now I take a zinc to fight off grey hair !) .. and when I did my bone density they told me I prob will never break a bone as long as I live ( well barring some catastrophe)
eat good fats avocado, olive, coconut (all virgin ..lol.. ) I avoid all others especially any that get solid at room temp ..
so dont go crazy about protein is my point but make sure you eat many foods.. not the same thing every day ..
one day brown rice with roasted veggies for dinner .. maybe pumpkin pie for dessert ..

next day have pasta with beans for dinner .. and fresh fruit cup for dessert ..

next day have make a mock mac and cheese casserole ( use nutritional yeast to make a dragon fly mix ) .. moc meatloaf .. and mixed salad .. unjello dessert

.. I am skipping writing breakfast and lunch but obviously change those up too ..
I do eat a bigger breakfast .. to start the day

snack on raw veggies during the day or fresh fruits ..
I drink water all day ..
and add nuts always during the day but in very small amts .

hope this helps .. if anyone has FB .. there are some great blog with recipes..

it's vegetarian but for vegans most are easy conversions.. over 1000 recipes
