Tofu!

You can make SOOOO many things from it and not feel like your depriving yourself! I eat soy products because I do not like the idea of consuming so many processed meats.

Try "morningstar" products. There are burgers, hotdogs, breakfast patties, eggs and even steak strips that are all made from soy!

PS- It does get expensive but is worth it in the long run.

There are several options; Morning Star Farms foods however, are NOT to be consumed by vegans as they contain eggs 9 times out of 10. ALWAYS check the label before purchasing things.

My quickest suggestion would be to do a Web search on vegan recipes. There is virtually no limit to what vegans can eat. If you live in a city like NYC, Boston, Austin, SF, Atlanta or near it, you also have tons of options for eating out.

But as a vegan, you should start shopping at places besides your traditional supermarket.

As a rule, not an exception; any food you've eaten in your life has a vegan replacement, including Rice Krispies treats with vegan marshmallows. You just need to be pro-active about it, you have chosen a lifestyle which is not prevalent in the U.S. so you will have to work to find the foods you can eat.

Soy, tofu, tempeh, seitan, vegetables, olive oil, fruits, vegan dairy, soy milk, spices are all the ingredients that make way for vegan treats.

You should eat Boca, Morning Star Farms, fruits and vegetables. You can find Boca and Morning Star Farms in the refrigerated area. You have to eat grains and soy milk for protein. Have a nice day! (@_@)

Eat a variety of "whole foods," with plenty of beans, nuts, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. Avoid unhealthy foods like trans fats, which are usually listed as partially hydrogenated oils. Deep-fried foods often contain trans fats. Choose margarines that use nonhydrogenated oil, like Earth Balance or Smart Balance. Although a diet consisting of Coke and French fries is technically vegan, you can't be healthy if you eat nothing but junk food. Vitamin B12: Vitamin B12 is produced by bacteria, and some experts believe that vegetarians used to get plenty of this vitamin from bacteria in drinking water. Since drinking water is now treated with chemicals that kill the bacteria, it's important to make sure that you get enough vitamin B12 from fortified foods (like most brands of soy or rice milks, some breakfast cereals, and many brands of nutritional yeast) on a daily basis or by taking a sublingual B12 tablet of 10 mcg per day


Iron-beans, dark green leafy vegetables (like spinach),whole grain breads, Also eat something with vitamin c when you eat something with iron, it increases absorption

Calcium-dark green leafy vegetables (spinach, broccoli, soymilk)

Protein-Isn't really hard to get, just eat a variety of foods, good sources are beans, brown rice, nuts, whole grain breads, soy foods

Omega-3 fatty acids-flax seeds/oil,walnuts,canola oil

Zinc-pumpkin seeds (best source), beans and lentils, yeast, nuts, seeds and whole grain cereals

Selenium-Brazil nuts are a particularly good source of selenium, so try to eat a couple every day. Eating a small bag of mixed unsalted nuts can be a convenient way to get your daily selenium intake, but make sure it contains Brazils. Bread and eggs also provide some selenium.

Vitamin D- Vitamin D, often called the sunshine vitamin, is another common deficiency in those not drinking vitamin D fortified milk. Synthetic vitamin D is added to both cow’s milk and most brands of soy milk today.

Vitamins A (beta carotene),C, K, E and Folate-variety of fruits and veggies

Iodine-Iodine is a trace mineral that's important for healthy thyroid function. Table salt is the most common and reliable source of iodine in Americans' diets. (However, sodium in processed foods usually does not contain iodine.) If you don't consume table salt, you can get iodine from a multivitamin or from kelp tablets.

Soy.....I love the veggie burgers Morning Star Farms makes & I'm not a vegan. They just taste really good & are good for you. I bake mine & they taste great.

fruits and veggies, whole grains such as quinoa, millet, rice, flax. Most vegans rely on soy, I don't as I am allergic to it. Avoid "enriched" foods, such as cereals, flour, rice, pasta, etc., as they are often enriched with vitamins from animal sources. Avoid gelatine, which is made from animal bones and tendons and skins, and is often in yogurt, pastries, pop tarts, etc. Many flavored chips and snack labeled with ":natural" ingredients are from animal sources, as are many vitamins and medications. Armour thyroid, for example, is made by the same company that makes Armour hot dogs. Eat lots of beans, legumes, pulses, and nuts for protein and nutrients. Its easy to be creative on a vigan diet-learn about foods you have never tried before, and spices and herbs to add interest. Rutabega fries and turnip fries are awesome-just brush with olive oil and bake. Avoid foods containing glycerine, unless it specifies that it is vegetable glycerine. If you are unsure what an ingredient is, or where it is derived from, avoid it until you know what it is. Learn about other common names for animal products, such as albumin, which means egg. Good luck!

I am a member of a group of Vegans that strongly recomomend that you eat one or two serving of Vaginas everyday.

No product froman animal-that means no meat, no fish, no honey, no milk, no cheese, no cream, no eggs, etc. Have soya products instead.
Eat soya substitues, crackers, bread, pasta, rice, stir frys, vegys, fruit, nuts, etc etc
