Sorry I didn't introduce myself right away. My name is Kelly and I am 41. I

live in Ohio with my fiance Joel and my son Christopher, 17; as well as my 2

furbabies; Scooter, a 6 year old Morris the cat look alike and Cuddles, a 2

month old calico. Joel and I have 3 other children; Nikki, 21; Clifton, 19 and

Antionette, 18. We also have 3 grandsons; Jason, 3; Anthony, 2 and Nathan, 6

months. We live in a small town west of Cleveland, but hope to someday move out

to the country and have a small farm. Joel is an electronic engineer and I run

a small business from our local flea market selling handmade soaps and bath

salts.

I started cutting out meat from our diets because my health was failing and

there was no apparent reason for it. While I am almost totally vegetarian,

Chris and Joel still want their meat. So, for the time being I will cook them

meat (yuck) once or twice a week; usually chicken or seafood. I am always

looking for new recipes and also new friends.

Welcome, Kelly! It's nice to hear from you. I think you'll find some good

recipes

in our files section, including some that should suit your non-vegetarian

family! We shall be putting more up there, of course, but this list as you see

is

still new ;=)

 

Now that you have posted, please don't forget to drop a line now and then.

And tell us what kinds of foods you like best!

Yes, it has only been 3 months. Prior to that I was still eating

chicken and pork often, cheese and eggs occasionally, but I was not

eating red meat or milk.

 

It is actually much easier than I could have imagined. I actually

enjoy eating now more than ever, and I feel much better as a result.

I have lost 50 lbs since October 2003; the last 15 lbs of which came

after converting to a Vegan diet.

 

Many of my recipes are adaptations of older meat based recipes. I

must also say that the cookbook, " Vegan Planet " by Robin

Robertson is excellent and it has given me many new ideas.

 

I will share some of them soon.

Well that's great - losing weight, feeling better, enjoying food even more *and*

doing without harming animals or the environment ;=) A good three-months'

work, I'd say!

 

Yes, _Vegan Planet_ is great - and I like _The Garden of Vegan_ too,

although right now I am only using it for breads, etc. since we eat - as we have

for years even before we were vegetarian - mostly asian food, with excursions

into Italian and occasional Lebanese, Greek, oh and and and. Well, you get

the picture. *Spicy* is what I mean. But I am going to look for _Vegan Planet_

- I've received some nice recipes from there via friends in the past ;=) Not

that

any recipe stays the way it was intended for long in our house . . . *lol*

 

ciao!
