Frequently Asked Questions
What are some alternatives to meat protein?
Protein is an essential part of a healthy diet. You can find it in both animal and plant-based foods. Plant-based proteins include legumes (nuts and seeds), beans, lentils (wheat gluten), seitan (wheat flour), and hemp seeds. A high level of antioxidants can be found in many vegetables and fruits which can offer anti-inflammatory benefits. Oat and almond milk, two dairy substitutes that are fortified, provide a plant-based alternative to cow’s milk. Alternatives like pumpkin seeds, nutritional yeast, and other plant-based milks can provide cheesy flavors to dishes while also offering more micronutrients. You can also add extra nutrition to smoothies or shakes by using vegan protein powders.

Can I eat eggs if I follow a plant-based diet
No, eggs are not permissible on a plant-based diet. This diet completely eliminates any animal products like meat, poultry, fish, or eggs. Many vegan alternatives to traditional egg-centric dishes have similar taste and texture, but do not rely on animal products. Tofu scrambles or eggs can be made into great breakfast dishes. It can also replace eggs with plant-based protein. For example, chickpea flour or mashed banana can be used for binding in baked goods. Aquafaba (the liquid that comes in chickpea cans) can also substitute for eggs in making meringues. Non-vegan recipes can also be preserved without losing their flavor by using egg substituters such as flaxseed meal, chia seeds or chia seeds with water instead of one large egg.

How To
How to transition to a plant-based diet without feeling overwhelmed?
It can seem overwhelming to make the switch to a plant-based diet. However, education and preparation are key. To start, take baby steps and gradually incorporate the necessary dietary changes - replacing animal proteins with plant-based proteins, for example. Opt for whole foods rather than processed substitutes, as they are generally healthier and more filling.
You can get the best results from meal planning and meal prep if you are dedicated. Map out your meals in advance to plan what you will need to buy and how long to prepare each dish. You can simplify your kitchen by investing in multi-cookers or slow cookers. Batch cooking will allow you to prepare multiple meals at once.
Finally, don't forget to keep experimenting with new flavors that you may enjoy. Trying different cuisines can bring a lot of variety into your vegan diet: think Chinese tofu dishes and Indian curries. You should create a grocery shopping list that is based upon recipes and not rely on impulse buying at the grocery stores. It will be easier to make the switch if you have the right ingredients and some helpful preparation tips.
