Intro. from the Emrald City Hi Lori

[Guest guest]

Hi Lori,

I agree, eating meatless will broaden your ideas about cooking grains, beans,

veggies and meals you wouldn't normally try. Welcome into the

group........Donna

Hi all,

 

This looks like a lively group and the posts I've read are great.

Thanks to the moderator for the invite!

 

I became a lacto/uovo/pesco vegetarian about 5 years ago and lived

that way for 3 years. My husband reintroduce meat to the family two

years ago (he was the one who began our fairly meatless lifestyle!)

and I've regretted it ever since. I have therefore reintroduced

meatless living and feel so much better for it. He still cooks meat,

which is fine for him, but I keep it meatless for my kids and myself

with a bit of fish every now and then. We do try to keep the dairy to

minimum as well.

 

I love to cook and enjoy recreating formerly carniverous meals with a

meatless flair. I do use many frozen substitutes in my culinary

inventions and love to try other substitutes as well (Trader Joe's soy

cheese is faboo). I have found (for me anyway) that taking the meat

out of the picture actually increased my meal planning options rather

than decreasing them! I am looking forward to exchanging recipes and

ideas with you all.

 

Cheers,

~Lori, Seattle
