It is a trendy thing these days, to go vegan. Sometimes there is a health reason, mostly it is because the love of living creatures encourages the vegans to eat only a plant-based diet. When asking a non-vegan to share a meal with you it turns into a dilemma. What to make that is interesting? What to offer to the non-vegans that is not plastic? Will the vegan get a bit upset if they are at the table with meat eaters?
These days veganism is quite main-stream and the numbers are growing. A vegan diet excludes meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and dairy. Truth be told, we know that a plant-based diet can do health wonders for us and of course it is good for this planet we live on also it is not really the case of “if you become a vegan you will lose weight” as there are a number of vegans who are not sylph-like. Research shows that vegans need supplements if they do not eat meat. Be that as it may be eating more plant-based diet and less red meat (and not consuming any processed meat) is certainly beneficial all round.
Here are some delicious ideas for a vegan meal that you can make and that everyone will enjoy – just don’t call anything what it isn’t – like steak, after all it is steak that they do not want to eat; or crab cakes, it is crab they don’t want to eat. Coin it for what it is.
Vegans find going out to eat here on island is a bit of a nightmare, many establishments don’t offer enough great dishes on their menus that will appease the vegan’s taste buds however the supermarkets have a great variety of fresh produce, so it should not be hard to produce interesting and tasty options at home.
