any vegans or vegetarians?

I'm on my second day meat free! I would be interested in what others are eating as well...So far a lot of fresh fruit and veggies....I had some morning star meatless chicken strips in my salad earlier, and it was delic!

Well, this morning around eightish for breakfast I had a piece of Killer Dave"s Good Seed whole wheat toast spread with peanut butter and topped with half a cup of fresh raspberries. (It is amazing that raspberries and broccoli are relatively high in protein!)

For lunch it was left over Pad Thai (noodles and vegetables) from my favorite restaurant.

Supper was an ear of Corn on the cob dressed lightly with butter-flavored spray and freshly ground sea salt.
2 corn tortillas warmed in the microwave and filled with Rosarita non-fat refried beans seasoned with taco seasoning, ground gluten, avocado, lettuce and salsa.

My favorite supper though is 6 tablespoons of popcorn, popped in an air popper, lightly sprayed with butter flavored spray and sprinkled with a tsp of McCormick's taco seasoning followed by two cups of melon and around 15 almonds...Good mouth satisfaction, lots of fiber and the melon sweet...good fats and enough protein.

I grew up as a vegetarian and over the years have leaned more and more to the vegan way of eating...just finished a month long course called the Complete Health Improvement Program that has given me lots of recipes and a renewed determination to healthy eating...their program is evidence based and very helpful.

I'm vegetarian, and have been for about 5 years.

I eat high fibre cereal or oats and low fat yoghurt for breakfast, usually with some hemp seeds or linseed added in for Omega 3's etc.

I cook a lot of one pot meals - recent healthy favourites have included chick pea curry, ratatouille and sweet potato & bean chilli. Yesterday I had courgette cut into thin strips as a low calorie pasta substitute, with hot chilli pesto and low fat grated cheddar. I also like salads, for example cous cous with roasted veg and seeds, or Greek salad with feta and lots of veg.

I eat a fair bit of tofu - those who say they don't like tofu usually don't know how to cook it... it's very "neutral" on its own, it needs a good marinade and/or spices to make it really nice.

There are other milk susbstitutes that don't have soya, by the way, I really like chocolate oat milk for deliciousness and healthiness all in one!

I'm a long-time vegan (13 years) and was vegetarian for 4 years before... I'm 25.

I do a mix of all natural fruits and veggies and tofu and "meat substitutes" for protein. I also drink a protein shake on exercise days (or if I'm just low protein). I love Morning Star Crumbles and Chicken Strips for taco salad and ranch chicken salad. You learn to cook from scratch pretty quickly-- like pancakes and manicotti. www.vegweb.com is my favorite resource for recipes.

I disagree that you, by default, eat a lot of carbs as a vegan-- it's a choice that comes with any dietary path. I'm not hungry all the time at all.

Oh, hi

Beans, Brown, wild rice, quinoa, sweet potatoes, acorn, butternut and spaghetti squash. A lot of Fruit too many to name, Rolled Oats, Sprouted Bread like Ezekiel, a lot of veggies too many to name, not big into nuts. I'm 80/10/10 vegan. I used to eat the veggie patties and etc but now i prefer making my own.

Couple of other sites I didn't see mentioned:

Also, Engine 2 was mentioned, check out their site, which has a load of recipes. They have a Pinterest site as well, which my wife frequents, with a load of recipes posted. The Forks over Knives website also has a lot of recipes.

Even if you're not vegan (which I've only been for slightly less than a year, without any regrets), you'll still find a wealth of recipes that will please most palates, regardless of their personal inclinations towards or away from animal products.

Vegetarian for over a year, vegan for about 6 months. My diary is public if you want to look. I eat a lot of quinoa, beans, fruits and vegetables. When I decided to start cutting out animal products I made a very gradual transition, trying one new recipe a week until I was comfortable cooking enough different foods that I knew I could sustain my new diet without it being overwhelming. I do not eat the fake meats, while they can be helpful for someone that is transitioning to a vegetarian diet in the long run they are over processed and many contain eggs.
