Following this thread for meal ideas.

Planning to start with Veganuary and see how that takes me.

I did buy Violife 'cheese' and it's unusual - but as I read on here I think I'd need to leave any idea of vegan cheese tasting like dairy cheese behind.

Hoho Welcome I've made a good copy of cream cheese, as long as you put plenty of garlic , salt, and herby things in it, it's nice. You could either use tofu yoghurt (hung overnight in a muslin) or soaked blended almonds\cashews.

B. Leftover smoothie
L. More beetroot soup and spelt toast!
Sn /S Almond milk capuccino. leftover crumble with almond milk

Oh for those of you that have the vegan japanesey book the katsu curry and stir fried veg we had last night was out of there and was AMAZING

B: banana oat smoothie
L: butter beans, broccoli and pesto
D: a cheeky vegan dominos, not as good as I remember dominos to be, last time I had it was nearly 3 years ago (pre vegan) although the vegan garlic dip is to die for 🤤
Snacks: cashews

Thanks for that iJumped . I'm off line from today (either going by train or boat, it does seem that circumstances are conspiring to prevent it I may be back !!).

Flight was packed and it was miserable wearing 2 masks and a visor for 17hours but worth it to see my parents. Just unbelieveably gutted the news today means I won’t see my brother or niece and nephew - it’s been 18months since I saw them and we’ve done so much and travelled so far to be able to see them. So sad.

D: celeriac and parsnip soup and a lot of stress g&t’s, and a salted caramel chocolate pud thing my mum bought in for me

@IJumpedAboardAPirateShip that's awfully sad 😞 Does that mean your parents are in a tier 4 area? I have a brother in Melbourne, and feel that 'cousin time' is so important, so gutted for your DC too.
