    Hi! I just recently participated in a 21 day vegan challenge and I'm interested in making it a lifestyle choice.

    I am a vegetarian. Now considering going vegan. I do it for the animals. For the environment and for our earth. Animals have a right to live and want to live just as much as we do. Plus an added bonus. When I became a vegetarian 11 years ago my blood values became perfect.

    OK I'll start:

    This recipe is from MyRecipes.com:

    Bulgur with Dried Cranberries

    1 cup coarse-ground bulgur
    2 cups (1/4-inch) cubed peeled English cucumber
    1 cup dried cranberries
    1/3 cup thinly sliced green onion
    1 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
    1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
    1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
    1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    Preparation

    1. Place bulgur in a large bowl; cover with 2 cups boiling water. Cover; let stand 30 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork. Add cucumber and remaining ingredients; toss gently to combine.

    My ideal food plan would be a whole food vegan paleo low-ish carb, adequate protein, high fat diet...I'm pretty sure that's a pipe dream...

    Hi there, I've been vegetarian for 16 years and vegan for 8. There's unfortunately lots of vegan junk food that I love so I'm trying to eat healthier and reach my goal weight. Feel free to add me! I can use any support!
