Some of the recipes have milk and other animal products.

[Guest guest]

Like the message says. Part of being a vegatarian is not having any

milk or dairy, or anything else from a cow or other mammal. Alot of

recipes i seen in this group, have some kind of dairy product in

them. Can you seperate the files so that you can easily find

completely vegan recipes? That would be greatly appreciated, thank

you. I have my own recipes i would like to add, but they might not

get noticed with all the recipes with dairy products added.

" vegetarian " can mean someone who eats dairy products. " vegan "

means no milk, dairy, eggs or anything else that comes from any

other ANIMAL. I don't think you would want to limit it to just

mammals. That would imply that eating eggs is OK since chickens are

birds and not mammals.

That being said, I do think it's a good idea to separate the recipes

for ease of searching. Personally, I haven't yet given up dairy,

but do not eat eggs and many recipes have eggs in them. I don't

usually let it bother me, though. There are plenty of ways to

substitute for eggs and dairy. That being said anyone who is a

vegan who sees a recipe with eggs or dairy or whatever, can easily

substitute.

Does anyone have a quick guide to substitution?

This list is for sharing our vegan AND lacto-ovo recipes.

Pretty much all recipes that are stored in our files that

are vegan in content are highlighted as such. Hope this helps.

I know when I share a vegan recipe I try to mention it is

vegan in the post title like so:

[recipe] yada yada ya ~ vegan

 

The lacto-ovo recipes I post I simply share in this manner:

[recipe] yada yada ya

 

Just so you know, here we are tolerant of all forms of

vegetarianism and even have many members who are not

vegetarian as of yet or who are simply interested in learning

more. I know some vegans feel lacto-ovo vegetarians are NOT

" true " vegetarians. That can still be your opinion. Just know

many here are lacto-ovo and DO consider ourselves to be

following a vegetarian path. All are welcome here as we learn

from eachother and share.

i think when substituting eggs, if you don't want to cough up the

money for egg substitute just use baking soda/powder since the main

purpose of eggs in recipes is to make things rise. but eggs also

thicken stuff so then you may want to use that egg replacer stuff.

as for milk, why not soy milk? the only problem i can see is cheese.

all the truly vegan cheeses i've had just don't melt very well.

toffuti will melt if you microwave it for a long time. I'm starting

lose the craving for cheese so I figure might as well leave it out.

I have previously posted a handy-dandy list of egg substitutes; it is

there in the Files section under " kitchen Tips " .
