It can be made 100 ways. I'm not fond of just plain steaks as it's so low fat, but you can't keep venison summer sausage or ring bologna in this house for long.

I have no problem with whatever you want to eat or not eat but words like vegan mean something and it isn't eating animal products.
Oh I know that. I wasn't aware she was still eating venison until Christmas. I was tempted to point out that if she is going to post about how all meat eaters are ignorant then she can't be eating meat. She's done a lot of mental gymnastics to justify eating the venison BIL brings home and how that is different. Which is fine, it's not any of my business. Just amusing that I am the apparent "ignorant" one.

Chinese,Thai, and Indian foods are our staples. There are a lot of nice vegan cheeses these days, but still a lot of bad ones. If you tell me the cheese you're trying to replace, I can tell you if we know a good sub. My kids refused all vegan cheeses 3-5 years ago, now they love the new ones.

Lots of dark chocolate doesn't have milk. I like theos because most of it also doesn't have soy. And it's yummy.

My list of requirements for a man have changed over the decades. When I was a teen, he couldn't smoke and must wear pajamas. I didn't know anything about sex but was sure I wouldn't want to accidentally have him touch me with his junk. I married a man who smoked and slept nude. After divorce my list included must not try to control me. I was dating two men who both wanted me to drop the other but I waited for one to demand and dropped him. I picked my ISO because he didn't attempt to control me at all, 30 years later he still doesn't. He isn't tall, not rich, not extra smart, smokes, sleeps nude. He is very kind to animals, doesn't try to use me, kind and gentle to everyone even people he doesn't like he walks away not fights. He has never once said anything about my weight or anything bad about me. Finally, he said you really are smarter than me. If I lost him I would only demand a man who was kind and gentle and not a user.

I'm sure they have options too. the Amy's line of veggie burgers are way more varied and tasty than Morningstar, IMHO. I make my own black bean burgers now, but in a pinch will go with the Amy's California burger. it's got mushrooms and sprouts, and is the best tasting of the varieties, I think.

I didn't go vegan because of the no cheese but as long as it isn't milk chocolate there is vegan chocolate. I don't have time to pay 3x the cost of normal chocolate for fake chocolate, lol! Fake chocolate? I just realized yesterday was the last day for cheap Chocolove bars at a local grocery store. $1.49 for Strong Dark.

I actually really like the Chipotle Black Bean Burgers at Aldi. You get 4 patties for like $2.75.

It'd be nice if there would be things we both could eat not two separate meals each time but although I'm not a big fan of pork or meat in general I do eat chicken and fish, which she does not. She does eat eggs though, don't those come from chickens?

This is going to be fun. I'll do omelettes for breakfast with mushrooms, tomatoes and what not. Lunch I'll get that kale salad mix from Costco. It has seeds and cranberries in it. I need to make out a menu for 5 days.

Of those 5 days I need 3 breakfasts , 3 lunches, 3 dinners. 2 meals will be out. One is already paid for. The other will be at the beach which I'm sure she'll want to see.

She does eat eggs though, don't those come from chickens? The theory I heard is that the chickens would still lay them anyway even if we didn't eat them so it isn't like we are forcing them to do something they wouldn't be doing anyway. If she will eat eggs how about a quiche? There are also a lot of dishes that use things like mushrooms or eggplant that are quite tasty. allrecipes.com/recipe/203699/portobello-burgers-with-goat-cheese/?internalSource=staff%20pick&referringId=17256&referringContentType=recipe%20hub&clickId=cardslot%208This is what I do a lot but they have lots of other recipes and a lot are vegan but this isn't a vegan site just a regular good food site.

I need to make out a menu for 5 days. French toast one night? I used to eat a very simple lunch of cucumbers and almonds. There's also non diary yogurts for lunch too. Pricey but worth it once in awhile, there are also a few non dairy pizzas. My favorite is Amy's Roasted Vegetable but Daiya also has a few.

I was surprised at how few people mentioned being kind. Good for you Crone!
