Vegan experiment- Day 3

Yesterday was TOUGH. I was EXTREMELY tempted to have pizza with my sisters, but grabbed a salad with some mushrooms and peppers instead. I will say yesterday was the hardest so far...Other than the salad, I had smoothie and a potato. :) I made it through the day, so I guess all is well.

Vegan- Day 2

I didn't wake up early enough for breakfast this morning...but for lunch I had a stuffed green pepper I made the night before. For a snack later in the day I made a smoothie, orange juice, a banana, and some strawberries. Dinner was an interesting one...I bought some red and yellow peppers and made a sort of stir fry..It had red and yellow peppers, onions, and mushrooms. I baked some potato rounds as a side..All in all it wasn't too bad. 

Trying Vegan- Day 1

I didn't know yesterdays eggs would be the last I'd have for 6 weeks or more. I went to meet with my boss/friend to have a business meeting, on the car ride to the restaurant she informed me she, and her family, were going vegan, and why I should too. I told her I would join her on her quest for 6 weeks, and then make the final decision.

The first day wasn't hard at all, not even when my dad decided to make steak for dinner. I made a smoothie with one banana, a few strawberries and almond milk (which I'll never use in a smoothie again) for myself and then made a stuffed green pepper with wild rice and mushrooms inside. 

So I guess, every day, for the next 6 weeks, there will be one daily post about my day, and what vegan dish I tried, as well as any difficulties I'm facing.

Thanks for reading!
