Vegan/Vegetarian Guide to Fast Food →
fuckyeahmimieux:
When I’m in a crunch for time and the ONLY thing I can get is FAST FOOD, I work that menu. There are many choices you can manipulate into being vegan or vegetarian. Never be afraid to ask for any substitutes or if a restaurant can remove something from the meal, it can always be done.

Week 3 of Almost Vegetarian begins
I went to store this morning (I only had $15) and got string beans, spinach, 2 apples and kale along with some green bananas, a sweet potato and Queso Fresco. I think it was the healthiest grocery list I’ve ever shopped for. The stores have started to set out cranberries. It’s almost time to make some chutney! I can’t wait :). Just between you and me, I’m kinda...

Dinner - Acorn Squash Apple Soup

I made this soup this evening and ate it with some really yummy bread. It was pretty good, I added a little maple syrup as the top drizzle as the apple was particularly tart. This is a vegan, gluten-free recipe, it’s healthy and tasty and filling. I will make it again once it gets colder, and I will enjoy it just as much!

Is there meat in this?
Yesterday, I went to Boston Market. I thought it’d be no trouble - there are lots of vegetarian sides, there should be no trouble. I was surprised to find that they even had a 3 sides “meal”. So I chose Mashed Potatoes, steamed vegetables, garlic lemon spinach. Pretty ok right? I even went as far as asking - There’s no meat in the vegetables is there? -...

nutritionista:
I got an email a few weeks ago from a reader who was a bit upset over this post. She said she was a long-time reader and didn’t mind my meaty lifestyle, but felt like I was mocking faux meat in an unfair way.
I responded that I hadn’t reposted BBQ Jew’s post because it mocked the BBQ Shreds…

I got to my goal
10 days no meat. I’ve been a lacto-ovo vegetarian I guess.
It’s been incredibly (surprisingly) easy. Let’s hope the next 10 are just as easy.
What helped in the transition:
Making a menu ahead of time - knowing what I was going to have for the day cut out a lot of worrying.
Having a ‘go to’ meal - When I found that the Progresso Soup was beef stock based, knowing...
