The key ingredients to being a happy vegetarian
Posted by admin in Food, Other Stuff, Tips & Tricks on September 11th, 2009
When I first met my wife I was a hardcore carnivore, and had no clue what would entice her to not want to eat meat. Once we began co-habitation I did most of the cooking and after a while I realized it was too much work to make two dinners every night one with meat and one without. So I decided to challenge myself and go vegetarian while using my experimental culinary skills to make vegetarianism taste better. It was a long battle with a lot of gummy, rubbery, and tasteless meals but here I am now thinking seriously about going Vegan.
Beans on the go!
