vegan challenges

On the whole, I am enjoying the 30 day vegan challenge. As a foodie I have loved trying new recipes. And personally, I love veggies and grains, so it's been a treat. But I have found a few challenges:

  • Not being prepared. On days when I've not cooked/prepped, it can be very tricky to eat. Hard to have things "to grab and go".
  • Cooking "regular" food for my family. They are not doing the vegan challenge, so at night and on weekends, I am cooking for them, often leaving me with a partial dinner, eating only the parts of the meal that are vegan.
  • I miss having cheese to cook with. It is a missing level of depth that my cooking is lacking.
I have noticed that the reduction in dairy is definitely good for my body. I will maintain that I think later on. All in all, I feel amazing. I'm putting tons of different fruits, veggies, and grains, into my body - which we all know is good!

Keeping up the challenge!
