Day Two

Day one of my new vegetarian life consisted of mushroom lasagna, very nice, but I have to admit it was a ready meal, but ..

hold onto your hats, just look at this lean, mean vegetarian machine

It consisted of a jacket potato, mushrooms, leeks, courgettes, peppers, tomatoes and onions, all topped off with grated organic cheese, with a little pesto on the side.  I think I slightly spoilt the healthy value of it by putting a 'leeeetle' too much butter on the potato, but boy was it tasty. The only thing I didn't really like was the pesto.  

The rest of it was delicious.   I found out my wok is missing, so a new one is needed, but all in all a good start.  Everything was organic, and most of what I've bought for my weekly shop is organic and/or free range.


I actually feel much better knowing no animals died or were horribly treated in the making of my dinner.

Veggie and Animal Cruelty

A must read if you're considering becoming vegetarian or vegan, or if you just want more information on human health and animal welfare.  Eating our way to death, literally!

It's not new information or something I didn't already know but I like the way all the information is in one place and how well informed and well written the article is.

I guess this is my next goal, to go completely veggie.  One step at a time.  A slow change of lifestyle, rather than an instant fad switch of diet, which never works, is the way to go.

Lazy cook

I have to admit I'm a very lazy cook, but these recipes and lovely coloured photo's are making me get my cooking mojo back.

Take a look at these mouthwatering vegan dishes here at The Healthy Vegans web site.  Here's one to be going on with.

There are loads of hints, tips and sage advice for eating a healthy vegan diet.  Another one I've come across is Sweet on Veg, both packed with information and links on to other great sites.

Enjoy!
