I haven't been a vegan for too long so I'm still learning a lot about ethics and animal welfare and this forum seems like a good place to lurk.
I've stumbled across the forum while browsing the wiki and it's nice to see a place where the focus is on the arguments rather than the diet or emotional appeals.
Not that these things are necessarily bad. It's just about variety, I guess
Anyway, nice to meet you. I'm looking forward to having a nice chat.
Overall pretty well. Much easier than I've imagined.
I'm still eating a lot processed, more expensive, store-bought food though so I'm trying to cut that down.
Welcome Wojtekk, congrats on going vegan. I'm glad the wiki was a helpful resource. A lot of recipes are being added to it as well to help people find staples, that might help give you some ideas.
Greetings Wojtekk, welcome to the forum! We're gonna be adding more things to the Wiki as time goes on. thebestofenergy is working on several food-related articles.
I don't think you should worry about eating the processed foods (as long as that isn't the only thing you eat) as mock meats are a pretty good staple in many vegan diets, and serve as strong sources of Protein.
My idea of a good meal:
Kidney Beans
Sweet Potatoes
Cooked Spinach and Kale
Gardein Mock Meat
I think it belongs in every Vegan's Kitchen.
Of course, if you want to cut down feel free, but I don't think you should cut them out entirely.
