I came back from a short break a few days ago to discover that my youngest son (age 27) who lives here has decided to become vegan. My youngest daughter (29) who also lives here is a pescatarian - that is, she is vegetarian but eats fish. She also eats eggs and dairy. My partner will eat most things as will I.
Now, as some of you will know, my main interest is in cooking and recipe development (and food photography). I really don't want to become a specialist vegan cook - I cook vegetarian about three to four times a week and sometimes these recipe 'happen' to be vegan. But the idea of cooking without eggs and dairy all the time I'm finding too limiting and frankly a bit depressing.
I don't eat much at all and I don't tend to eat the meat dishes I cook. Until now, my son and partner have eaten those and my daughter has an alternative version. Now it is hardly worth me buying and cooking meat - since my partner will be the only one who eats it!
I expect it I will find a way around this - but at the moment I'm finding it hard to adapt.
I suspect that we don't actually have any active vegan members. @SatNavSaysStraightOn is veggan so eggs are included. If only my son would include eggs!
So - how would you feel about the prospect of cooking vegan everyday?
