These days more and more people decide to go vegan. I\u2019ve thought about it a lot in the past few months and asked myself if I could do it. The answer is: yes, of course I could. Everybody can! The question is: do I want to? I gotta be honest: I don’t! <\/p>\n
I already gave up red meat, pork, venison and such more than 20 years ago. Poultry I eat occasionally. This is something I could live without. But fish and seafood I love too much to give up. Same goes for cheese and other dairy products. I tried vegan cheese before and I have to say: It’s not for me.<\/p>\n
But nevertheless I try to use substitutes for dairy products whenever possible: Soya milk or yogurt, almond milk, coconut oil…just to mention a few. There is a great and delicious variety to choose from. So cooking vegan is not such a challenge at all. <\/p>\n
To give you an example here is a recipe for a lovely and very tasty vegan quiche…no eggs, no butter, no cream. <\/p>\n
And here we go:<\/p>\n
