    This topic would be more suited to groups as it can be divisive at times and not everyone can contribute.

    I'm a ovo-vegetarian, becoming a vegan (when the egg whites I have are used up). Sent a friend request to you.

    God bless,

    I like to roast my veggies with a little bit of evvo spray at 450 for 20 min.

    Also quinoa is great for added protein and you can basically substitute any pasta,rice or grain recipe with quinoa which cooks up very quickly.Try cookingquinoa.net (her cookbook is also fantastic!!)

    Feel free to add me. I have been leaning towards pescatarian (I think that's right) for years. I have fish, maybe, once a month. I crumble (as I hang my head in shame) maybe 3x per year and have chicken. I know I cannot declare myself a pure vegetarian, but i am really working on it. I would like to find friends who can inspire me and help me get beyond the yearnings for random chicken.

    And for those who may scroll and scrutinize my diaries, IF I order something with a meat, it's only because the supplies will not remove the meat, so I do so after I purchase it. For example, today I was running late for a job interview 1 1/2 hours from my house and hadn't eaten by 1:30PM, so I ordered a ham, egg, cheese and removed the ham. I know that it's still perpetuating the sale of meat, and I feel bad for wasting it, but would feel worse eating it.

    Sorry to sound so defensive, but I've been attacked on other posts and want to be sure I am abundantly clear.

    Anyway, I hope to make more friends, inspirational for me in my goals. Thanks!!

    Hi,

    I have been a vegetarian all my life. I'm not too fussy to read ingredients in minute details. However, I avoid all obvious meat products, including flavoured e.g. crisps. I eat eggs in food, like pancake, cakes etc but not on their own, e.g. omelettes, fried, boiled or poached etc.

    Since I started to monitoring and recording what I eat/drink, I have been making smarted choices.

    I make pizzas at home rather than buy from shops and supermarket. Lower in calory and great in taste. Little bit of effort though but I use pizza base mix. Oven chips than shop bought. Try and measure whot I eat.

    Great stuff:wink:
