A day in the life of a vegan

Emerald Orchid · 11-26-2009, 11:20 AM

Tell me what you eat! I'm starting to go dairy free, I already eat little meat, fish, and eggs. I eat a lot when I'm nursing, so it's a challenge for me to figure out what to eat because I'm hungry all the time. I want to know what food looks like for a day as a vegan.

Where are you dear vegans?

Sorry, Marie-Eve, I was eating vegan pumpkin pie!

It's really easy (for me anyway) but I'm not just vegan for diet and it's second nature now after over a decade...

I eat lots of different foods. So for instance this morning I had flax waffles with apple and maple syrup and juice. For lunch I'll have leftover lentil soup and bread. For dinner we'll probably have a pasta dish and salad. I eat fruit and nuts or nutbutter and crackers for snacks. I have fruit or something chocolate (or both) for a dessert. I eat a lot of rice and beans and greens. There are a lot of cheese substitutes for vegans that are fun. I make macaroni cheese with a nutritional yeast sauce. I eat scrambled tofu for brunch. I can go on and on...pretty much I can make anything vegan.
