I finally became totally vegetarian just a few short months ago, but

have been in the process for around a year and a half. I never

thought I would become vegetarian for whatever reason. The truth is I

probably never would of if it hadn't been for my DH's step sister.

She is vegan. She was up from Florida and we wanted to have her over

for dinner. That began the whole process. I took myself to the

library and got some cookbooks. Never in my life had I cooked a

vegetarian meal, and I was terrified. DH and I flipped through

cookbook after cookbook until we found a few very easy to make

recipes. I was not the greatest cook then, I have improved, and

didn't want anything to hard to make for dinner. I enjoyed the food

and learning from her why she decided to become vegan at dinner that

night. My DH had to go away for a week for his job and decided that

while he was gone I would eat only vegetarian food. I made a the

choice then to start to make the change. I joined this group and that

has been the best thing for me. I love the recipes that everyone

posts and the people are just so friendly and helpful. I know that if

I have a question I can ask the group and will get an answer.

 

Back to the recipes in the group. I have to tell you I made the Tofu

Dip from Hell a few weeks back for a Spa Party I had and the dip was a

hit. Everyone loved it and couldn't hardly believe that it was made

from tofu. I brought what was left to work that Monday and everyone

at work enjoyed it. I even gave the recipe to a lady at work so she

could make it for a get together she is attending in May. I think if

I would have not found this group I would have never been able to make

the change. Thank you so much!!

 

Hugs,

Mindy
