Just get into vegetables like aubergine and butternut squash. And remember to fry them when you cook them, or any other way, just dont boil them in water because that is a good way of sucking the flavour out of them. Before I went vegetarian I was such a fussy eater, and now I'm a strict vegan and I'll eat almost anything cruelty-free, some of the best dishes I've had have been vegan. Natx
I've been a vegetarian for about four years now, it definately gets easier with time. However, whenever I'd feel a weakness for a disgusting cow burger or whatever I'd remind myself the harsh realities of what I'd really be eating. That soon put me off. It's worked for four years at least, as I've never strayed from my vegetarian loyalty! hehe. Seriously man, education education education!
I was reminded about this thread earlier ... over 3 months now so I thought I'd give myself a pat on the back (I seem to be getting fatter though)
congratulations man!!! and to celebrate, i'll bring some delicious tins of tescos veggie raviolli to the winter gathering for you. they are yummy!!! peace and love stardust xxx
Well done. One day ... I'm a little too weak willed at the moment (and can't stand vegetables) ... but one day.
really can't be arsed reading through all that crap with argument from those two - get a life both of you! but, for the original question...... I don't go for these meat substitutes, quorn/veggie bacon etc (well... now and then but not as a rule)... you need to eat good food without the meat, not make growing substances look & taste like meat. Get a 'rose elliot' cookbook. She does great recipies for both loverly complicated veggie meals and veggie quick meals/snacks
I assume that you're referring to the 'crap' between Canfordcliffs and Doc Atomik? Before you make a judgement like you just have, it probably would've been worth noting that CC actually got banned for being a 'dick'. Sometimes there are reasons for peoples' reactions. Welcome to the forums.
now thats a refreshing change! (from a forum I got fed up with, that is...) I wasn't making a judgement! I have just come (been pointed in this direction by paul) from another forum that has gone so downhill and all you read is arguments. And I can't help getting involved, so trying to start afresh I didn't want to get involved, just wanted to offer my comments to the original question. As for who is a dick and who is not, the guy was one and his comments were asking for a reaction. Its just that in the forum I have been used to, the comment that started the reaction would have been nothing compared to the outright biggoted, racist, right wing crap thay spured!! And doktoratomic - when I said 'get a life' it should have had a winking smiley - wasn't meant as an insult.
