Anyone here!?

Old thread here.

Hi!

Wondering if anyone has any recommendations for yummy vegan cookbooks?

I have found a lot of great blogs online and have rediscovered my interest in cooking due to researching veganism. I have also watched Cowspiracy etc and do believe it's the right thing to do as well as the healthiest. I cannot call myself a vegan but I am very low meat/dairy and getting lower all the time.

I had an ephinany about how much biased info there is out there when my sister pointed out that protein deficiency just isn't a thing except for people who are starving. But yet everyone is obsessed with protein!

I have not got it, but have heard numerous positive raves about www.amazon.co.uk/d/Books/Thug-Kitchen-Eat-Like-Give/0751555517/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1488324466&sr=8-2&keywords=vegan+cookbook&tag=mumsnetforum-21 - bit sweary, so I'll think of something else if you mind that!

Dr.Greger of www.NutritionFacts.org for unbiased simple reporting re food health.

Thanks, I've heard of that book actually (it keeps coming up when I browse Amazon) and I certainly don't mind swearing so might give it a go.

Thanks for the nutrition info link, I'll have a read.

A general point: It's funny; I've always thought it was kind of odd to drink cows milk but a lot of people seem convinced that its good for them. It makes me congested and when I think about it it's just kind of gross. I have this friend who tells me she needs a glass after/before a run for energy and I'm just like Hmm

Also vegan. Although we are going to get chickens soon so I will be going back to eggs. Nut rivulet is my saviour for vegan food - use it for everything from juice to hummus to cakes.

What's nut rivulet? I just googled it but only getting hits for Nutribullet Grin

Hello! Think I'm a bit late to the party, but wonder if I could join?

I am not vegan yet, but am trying, slowly to amble my way there. At the minute I try to do veggie at the weekend and either vegan or meat and dairy free on weekdays, (I sometimes have eggs or honey and I haven't even started thinking about cleaning products and cosmetics etc properly yet).

I am thinking about just cutting out dairy now completely. I don't think I miss milk or cheese, but have always been partial to butter. Hopefully I can manage without it though.

Oh sorry! Just realised this is from march, not April! Really, really late to the party - ignore me Grin.
