Rice, beans. Im not vegan and I eat it all the time.

[Anonymous No.14338202]

Greek Lent is basically vegan + non-fish seafood, it's supposed to be about self restraint and most of the stuff would be eaten with a side of cheese as well otherwise.
Some dishes I like in particular;
Stuffed peppers/tomatoes/cabbage leaves/grape leaves with rice and fresh herbs
Roasted eggplant topped with tomato and onion and lots of olive oil (imam bayildi in turkey)
Bean pods stew or artichoke pea stew with fresh herbs and plenty of oil
Any thick legume soup, lentils, chickpeas, split peas
I'd pay special attention to the type and quality of oil and bread, most of these foods should be served with plenty of oil and a slice of bread, they would be most of your calories as a vegan.
However I would strongly consider not going through with it especially if you live in an area or during a season with limited fresh produce and expensive quality plant based oil.
If you have to ask how to be a vegan chances are your lifestyle and region aren't great for it, maybe you can be a vegan during certain times of year, you're an adult so make your choices

download cronometer or get really good at remembering your micros.

I eat a lot of beans (rinsed beans, less tannins) and quinoa with whatever veggies are in season or that I'm craving. I also quite like tempeh and tofu. if you want specifics there's a whole internet out there that'll help you with "quick and easy vegan meals!!!1one." I also like the YT channel "Pick up Limes" for doable easy healthy recipes. for future reference, this board is not the best place to be a non-meat eater (though it seems to be getting better).

An easy way to start is just to watch a few of those "what I eat in a day" videos and try to recreate the dishes you think you'd like. Just stray away from channels that seem like they're promoting some fad diets. I'm talking stuff like raw foods only, high carb/low fat, half the meals being juices etc.

I felt the same way, but the processing and handling part really grosses me out,too. I eat meat again, but when I think about what it really is, it sickens me. If I could get traditionally raised meat, I think I'd be ok, but these mass produced animals are disgusting.

Yea, that's what animals would do. If you leave a baby alone with a chicken, the chicken will just eventually kill it. Same with pigs - a pig will just eat the baby after enough time.

Should we also start to limit the number of carnivores alive? We can maintain appropriate prey species levels through sterilization, and since killing is so bad, we can start to remove predators from the ecosystem. Or do ethics only apply to humans?

Not him but it'd be cool if we could manufacture foods for carnivores that would meet their nutritional needs without harming other animals. But meddling into how the natural world works is a topic reserved for the faraway future, as for now the focus for most who care about animals is ceasing to harm them as much as is doable in our current world - and much of that is already achieved by simply abstaining from animal products whenever possible - and saving the natural environment from annihilation in the first place.

We can grow synthetic meats now, soon to be mass produced. We would have to capture and detain predators across the globe in order to make sure that they are fed only synthetic meat and ensure that they don’t hunt to supplement their synthetic diet. Don’t get me wrong, the modern meat industry is incredibly immoral, but a total removal of the predator-prey dynamic is immoral as well.

No, actually thinking about it alone is retarded. You can keep animals or you can let nature do their thing, I wouldn't want to turn the whole world into a zoo.

>>14338863
They're just not enough. 100 % vegans wouldn't be great either because I doubt we have enough pets and zoos to consume enough of the animals we need for healthy agriculture so we don't end up with a corpse problem but it should certainly be a lot more to stop idiotic wasting of land.

Best would be if livestock was only allowed to feed off the land they live on during summer, get species appropriate diet during winter and the resulting amount of meat, milk and eggs is the one we have to deal with. If that means way higher prices that's good for the farmers anyway.

>>14337962
I'm not even vegetarian and still it's so funny to see people struggling to cook without animal products or desperatly trying to replace them with similar things because 99% of ingedients on this planet are vegan. Mix some of them, that's it.

Some easy ideas:
- Oats, hot water, fruit or berries, cocoa, cocos
- Millet, red lentils, kale
- Green spelt with mushroom mix
- Potatoes with brussels sprouts and roux
- Zuchini, broccoli, kohlrabi, parsley soup
- Spinach lasagna
- Couscous salat with paprica and whatever vegetables you like, soaked seeds and walnut oil
- Pasta salat with tomatoes, rucola, herbs, crushed beans and olive oil
- Apple and nut mix pie

Try different types of the same vegetable and use a lot of oil, onions, garlic, ginger and spices. Things from foreign stores like the algae varieties from asian shops can add nice flavours, too. Make use of farmer markets and those weird little stores you never considered buying from before.

[Anonymous No.14339322]

Oh, and no need to be afraid ofthe actual cooking part! It's mostly
1. Prepare grain ingredient accoding to package
2. Steam/cook vegetables in water or broth until soft enough to your liking
3. Roast onions and other flavoury, spicy things in a pot in plant based fat
4. Mix grain part and vegetable part, stir-fry in your spicy mix
5. Add herbs if you want to

Well, by making this thread, you're already on the right track. You see, veganism has nothing to do with vegan food. Vegans' real food is attention. When a vegan goes a restaurant, she (of course) is actually happier not to find any vegan options on the menu. Because then she gets the opportunity to loudly complain and explain to everyone that she's vegan. If the menu does have vegan options, then she will loudly interrogate the waiter about whether every ingredient is "really vegan". She may even demand to talk the chef. (Vegans are a subspecies of Karens.) If she does actually get around to ordering anything, expect her to open her oversized purse to reveal a selection of pre-screened condiments, beverages, etc. Because, you know, the french fries may be vegan, but what about the ketchup? And is the water vegan? Did the restaurant even think to check? But really, she will be far more satisfied to leave in angry huff while threatening to post a scathing Yelp review. Be sure to look for her username, VeganGirl485.
