O.K, so I like food - a lot!
I've been cooking for myself since I was 14 and decided to become a vegetarian. Growing up in a house of meat-eaters, the meal was always prepared for the majority and so I had to fend for myself - not to say my family wasn't supportive. Occasionally my mom made a mean veggie lasagna and chilli with veg. ground round (don't tell my brothers).
I tried eating meat again after high school, but it just didn't fly. Even a minuscule bite of red meat would send my stomach into an angry frenzy. I could manage chicken but after awhile it just grossed me out.
Recently I made a giant leap into veganism - but only dietary (so far).
2 months in, after growing tired of the same old same, i've become forced to experiment with food. I bought the cookbook "How it all vegan!" and fell in love with Tanya and Sarah's fabulous recipes. I made a few recipes from the book and ran out to buy the remaining two.
I can honestly say I don't miss dairy (not even ice cream or cheese!).
Every weekend (the only free time I seem to have) I cover more of the books pages with food fingerprints and try to come up with some of my own creations.
So I thought why not blog my experiences in the kitchen and post a few photos of how things did (or didn't) turn out.
