I’ve been vegan for about 12 years (13 in January) after reading some discussions on Reddit about the theme, they hit me really hard after a beloved dog companion passed away.
I make pb&j daily, since it’s so easy and yummy. I often eat beans and rice, fried rice, the most varied curries and farofa!
Was vegan for a year (2021 to 2022), and my go to is tempeh tacos. Season the same as regular beef tacos, just cook in water instead initially to soften, then add seasoning and some oil to fry them a little. Then add cabbage, tomatoes, vegan cheese, etc or whatever you want. For the sauce I would create a cilantro lime sauce using slivered almonds as the binder. Super easy to make and delicious.
