VEG A LITTLE

As most new vegans, at the beginning of my journey I ransacked my pantry throwing out all remaining animal products, preparing myself with the idea that I would be giving up on most food items. I was happy to do so as my heart couldn't stand the idea of adding further to animal suffering and damage to the environment... So here I was, in my kitchen with a couple of potatoes, pasta and some veggies, wondering how creative can I get going forward with such few ingredients available... Boy, was I wrong. I think that before turning vegan I was definitely blind to so much wonderful food out there because I was reliant on what I was brought up to believe was the only available diet, only to quickly realise that by doing some research, I would open up a door to so much more. Lentils, Oat, Kale, Flax seeds, Chia seeds, Quinoa, Tofu, Black, Red Kidney and Pinto Beans, Chickpeas, Nutritional yeast….. CHEESE SAUCE MADE FROM CASHEW NUTS! The list was endless.
