seriously comrades, it's delicious over here in the land of vegans.
I think the easiest way to make more vegans would just be feeding people. Free vegan breakfast program when?
Yes, I know there are some locals that don't worry about eggs and dairy as much depending on the food that's available.
My local chapters are vegan only, I thought it was a thing across the entire org but apparently some chapters are super ""lenient"" 🙄🙄
There was a whole big dust up among FNB chapters decade(s)? back over a chapter deciding to start serving non-vegan stuff and I guess other chapters have followed suit
Cooking rough for me. Combo of having to cook whatever we get for free from neighbors and food bank and also feeding 7 people two of them teenagers that are growing and also me. At least beans are cheap and pasta too.
I'm okay it sound worse than it is please don't worry about me. If you do have cash then idk food not bombs I hear is great. But seriously thank you for caring. Feel bad for making you feel bad. Please be happy. Look at this little blob :party-blob:
100% true, my first steps towards becoming vegetarian was when I started eating at a Hare Krishna vegan restaurant next to campus. It was ridiculously cheap and the food was amazing and 100% vegan. I still drink milk, eat cheese and sometimes eat a couple of eggs, but I'm on my way towards going full vegan.
Yeah cooking a hassle enough and having to find vegan substitutes make it tougher. If I can just order ever meal then it would be easy as hell.
I used to live in a town that had a vegan restaurant that was well known in the community for always offering a free/pay what you can hot meal from like 11am to 1am. Just really inspirational, my dream is to have a food truck that does that
Hell yeah that sounds cool as hell. Food trucks are pretty rad and so is feeding people.
This looks tasty as hell, but unfortunately I live in a small town in the south, not a gentrified urban center, so we ain't got shit in the way of vegan restaurants. Oh well, I'm hoping to move soon, so maybe where I end up will have vegan places.
Yeah this is my position as well. Luckily seitan is somewhat easy to make at home and vital wheat gluten can be found online so you can make meat esque things easily at home.
Even tofu marinated is a great substitute in a lot of things. Tofu crumble for breakfast is boss.
This is part of my "look at all the good things" vegan posting series. I will continue to do this.
ways to have good (and cruelty-free) snacks and sweets :)
All hail the mighty Hummus :chickpea:
You should try toasting flax seeds sometime. They taste just like popcorn with some salt and a little oil or butter flavoring of your choosing and have omega 3 and 6, and are essentially carb free because they're almost all fiber.
What temperature do you need for the toasting? When I tried it I kinda burned them.
I'd recommend medium heat in a sauce pan for 3-4 minutes and stir them every minute or so.
Made bang bang tofu the other week and it was :pog-dolphin:

This, but a cup of plant based milk + 1tbsp apple cider vinegar for the buttermilk. No egg.
Panko (with no milk) for the breading. Use vegan mayo in the sauce, and tofu cut into like 1 by 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch cubes instead of shrimp.
Serve on a bed of shredded romaine lettuce.
My autistic, somewhat picky ass: "ok, but what if it was just plain fried tofu on its own. wouldn't that be so much better?"
yell at the food as loud as you can. Scare the food and it'll jump in your mouth
Sort of related, there’s a vegan burger place in the San Antonio area called Earth Burger that has a whole menu full of delicious vegan fast food similar to what’s in the photo. If you’re ever in that part of Texas, I highly recommend stopping by there.
This is a repost I reclaimed from a vegan sub, but there's a place like this in my neighborhood and it's so damn good.
Random question, do you have any meat/ground beef substitute vegan recipes that are quick to prepare? Most of what I've seen requires a pressure cooker, which tends to be a PITA if I don't want to meal prep for a week.
Preferably with tons of soy and gluten because those taste the best IMO.
TVP. You can get it in crumble form, just gotta soak it in warm water for a little bit and strain it but then it's ready for the pan, the cooking time is a lot less than meat too.
TVP + Better than bullion beefless broth.
My favorite - mushrooms, onions, and walnuts minced in a food processor. Add some soy sauce, smoked paprika, and thyme. So so good. Similar to this, though you can make this spiced however you want Not 100% a meat analogue, but lots of super rich, deep flavor, and not super unhealthy.
