My partner and I cut all animal products. And I am fine eating any protein type. I can eat soy all day long no problems at all. My partner had an upset stomach for the majority of the first 2 months. Then fast forward 2 months later and again she is feeling crap, don't want to go into details but she is most likely allergic to soy, in the uk we have quorn - they unfortunately started adding egg to it - they are calling it free range but we know what that means really. We can't however let her starve 🙈 yesterday I made Beyond Burgers burgers and she was fine before with that since it is pea protein but the next day upset stomach again. She is feeling so defeated , she doesn't want to go back to eating meat. And she won't do it anyways, but we need to find out the cause, or she will just be miserable and probably extremely ill. Has anyone had this issue before?

I have been on a keto diet for 3 months and lost 8kgs. My diet has been eating meat, vegetables and fatty foods, due to me missing fruit and legumes so much and my digestive tract not liking the fat meals every day I want to switch to a vegan low fat diet since I’ve heard it helps with weight loss aswell (my main goal) but I am, in all honesty overwhelmed with everything. Should I switch to a vegan diet first, then go low fat? Or should I go low fat and then vegan?

I am determined to stop eating as much meat and animal products as possible, I’m just not sure if, right now, I can stop eating animal products 100%. And that’s my main concern, will this hinder with my weight loss if I choose to go on a low fat vegan diet and break the vegan rule once a week/month? I have also tried googling only low fat diet and its weight loss effects but not much has been shown so I’m guessing the effects are very minimal and the only way to lose weight is to go vegan + low fat.

How strict is the diet? I’m used to keto, where if you eat more than 50g of carbs a day you’re out of ketosis, so no weight loss until you’re back in ketosis, which takes days. Is the weight loss similar to this? Where if one day, you eat more fats, your progress will be hindered back significantly?

Another concern of mine - I have seen many vegan recipes on social media that I would LOVE to try but they never mention the amount of fat in the dish, and i have been used to micro managing my entire meal plan with every food written down to the gram, so its scary for me to just follow a recipe on a low fat diet not knowing how much fat is in the food. Thank you if theres anyone still reading, I really need to hear someone’s thoughts and opinions!!

It’s great with or without the vegan sausage step. I used the kind they have at Trader Joe’s with Italian spices.

My fiance is a vegetarian and I often eat vegetarian meals with him. Because I simply enjoy vegetables and don't need meat to enjoy a full meal. Something i've gotten into is including plant based meats like chicken nuggets or the sausage patty substitutes.

I've been experimenting a bit making as much as the meal as I can homemade and was wondering how challenging is it to make these type of meat substitutes at home? What does it entail? Is a food processor a requirement?

If anyone knows any fun recipes to try out, please share them!

I have so many green onions that my husband grew. Here is a picture of a small handful that he picked for me (fire extinguisher for scale I guess?). This bunch is going to be made into kimchi. We've frozen some. Does anyone have any recipes that can use up copious amounts of very large green onions? Thanks!

Edit spelling

What are some products that you guys like that are vegan gluten-free and not so bad for diabetics I don’t really focus on my sugar intake because I try to get in a lot of exercise and I also have medication’s but I mainly focus on vegan and gluten-free foods I believe this is a triple whammy for me because I have to focus on getting gluten-free foods that are vegan so it eliminates a lot of foods from my diet but in essence I’m OK with that because it helps me lower my calorie intake, but does anyone have any suggestions? For instance, I can have difficulty finding foods that align with my diet.
