  • I've been flirting with the idea of going vegan for awhile now and have decided to try 'Veganuary' (awful name) to give it a proper go.

    I'm not too worried about during the week. I eat a mainly vegan breakfast and lunch as is. Dinners will be trickier as my wife does most of the cooking for the family and won't be switching with me.

    I reckon I'll have to do a fair bit of batch cooking on weekends as I don't have much time in the evenings.

    Anyone got any tips for me? Hopefully the whole Veganuary isn't frowned upon round these parts!

  • Hey, you do you.
    It’s always positive and never a bad thing, even if you go back. :)

    I agree with ltc and belagerent. Meals that are naturally great as vegan dishes are the best. Like falafel. I’ve never heard of anyone trying to add bacon to falafel, because it’s perfect.

    Are you doing a meal plan every week?
    I personally find that easier and especially since you’re changing your habits. My suggestion is to put a region to each day, and then google recipes based on that, an example could be:

    Monday: soup (sweet potato)
    Tuesday: Indian (Dahl)
    Wednesday: poke bowl (grains, greens, veggies, tofu or beans, and nuts/seeds)
    Thursday: pasta (puttanesca)
    Friday: Asian (stir fry with tofu)
    Saturday: burgers (bean patties or bought)
    Sunday: Mexican (Chili or burritos)

    Bosh.tv are pretty awesome and their dishes are very good with lots of flavour.

    Out of pure curiosity, can I ask why you are giving this lifestyle a go?
