thanks for the welcome (& reasons for vegetarianism)

[Guest guest]

Somehow I missed your original post so I'll respond to this one. I slowly found

myself a vegetarian after about a 10 year evolution. I grew up eating and

enjoying meat, chicken, pork, fish, everything. As an animal lover, when I

discovered how intelligent pigs are - smarter than my dog that I loved so much -

I couldn't stomach the thought of consuming them simply because I liked the

flavor of bacon! Slowly, this evolved into no red meat, then fish and chicken

soon left my plate as well. Funny, I'm not terribly fond of beans - usually a

vegetarian's path to protein - so I'm always blending them into bread mixes,

even " healthier " cupcakes and cookies. Mmmm! Very moist! Anyhow, as I learn

more about healthy eating I become increasingly confident in remaining a

vegetarian and raising my children as such.

 

Hope this answers your question.

I didn't see if anyone answered your question yet. Here's my answer: to get into

better health. My weight is an issue, but I also wanted to decrease my

cholesterol, eat more fruits and vegetables, and eat fewer refined

carbohydrates. A healthy vegetarian diet is the key.

i'm not asking a really dumd question but what reasons do you have for

being vegetarian either raised or chose later in life?

Hi, Gina -

 

You say:

 

>Funny, I'm not terribly fond of beans -

usually a vegetarian's path to protein - so I'm

always blending them into bread mixes, even

" healthier " cupcakes and cookies. Mmmm! Very

moist!

 

I've never done that with beans. Can you give me

any hints? A recipe or at least a rough idea of

How To? Thanks, hon.

 

Love and hugs, Pat
