What do vegetarians eat

"What is a vegan substitute to cheese, dairy products, sweets and pastries made with eggs and butter?" "What do mean, if you want to be a vegan?". My experience says 32-year-old Israeli Moran, author of the wonderful vegan blog Vegan Mom Tech and mom of two young daughters (Junior year, senior – 4.5). In some incredible way Moran still manages to work a scientific specialist in high-tech companies.





To work she goes every day, so came up with a lot of convenient and delicious vegan dishes that can be taken in lunch boxes.

Husband does not adhere to the vegan diet, as Moran is a vegan, so they agreed that home-cooked food, prepared by Moran, wholly vegan, and out-of-home husband and daughter eat traditional dishes at will.

About veganism and motherhood

"I never really loved meat. If in appearance it resembled what was once a living creature, I could not swallow another bite. After the birth of their first child 4.5 years ago, I became a vegetarian. Then, trying to improve the diet, I gradually discovered more and more facts about what is actually the livestock industry, the harm it brings animals, people and the environment. I decided I no longer want to support it, and a year and a half ago refused also from dairy products, including milk, cheese, and the rest, as well as eggs. I became completely vegan – I think this style of food humane, the most healthy and friendly to our planet.

I'm sure my girls get the best quality food I can offer them, and you learn to sympathize with those who are weaker. At the same time I am aware that they have to work hard, because the whole world and their immediate environment are still eating meat, dairy products and eggs. Kids get mixed signals and it certainly confuses them.

Typical menu for the day

I eat three meals a day and snack something tasty and healthy between meals. My traditional Breakfast for many years – toast with tahini (sesame paste), almond butter, doused in maple syrup or date syrup. Girls love in the morning, there are homemade buns with chocolate (I cook in advance and freeze them) or, like me, toast. And my husband is a fan of the vegetable rolls.





For lunch I try every day to cook a new dish. In the winter it is a thick soup or a hot stew with beans, in the summer something lighter, like salad with fresh vegetables, and cereals or the legumes for satiety, or cakes with sesame gravy.

For dinner we can have pasta, potatoes, rice, burgers, salads, buckwheat, soup – choose something from this range depending on the season and mood of girls. As a snack we have fruit, homemade ice cream, sweet rolls, granola, etc.

About nutrition at work

At work I usually take something delicious and at the same time easy – no need to reheat the dish does not lose its shape in the lunch box. My favorite set: cheesecakes, cakes with different fillings, vegetable patties, buns, vegetable pies, vegan pizza bread.

About cheese and vegan sweets

I have to admit, in the beginning, I really missed cheese (no wonder he is recognized as a product that causes addiction). But I imagine the whole chain of events that happen to have cheese in my plate, my appetite just vanishes. As for the baked goods and sweets, then it is not necessary to miss, because in vegan cuisine so many amazing recipes – just choose. One of my favorite desserts – homemade ice cream so delicious that even meat eaters love it and don't believe it without milk.





Another cool dessert – walnut mini-muffins ( I love all nuts). They benefit from quick cooking, you can freeze and thaw, they lose nothing in taste.

The discoveries of vegan

After becoming vegan, I rediscovered vegetables and cereals, beans and lentils.





With them you can make so many wonderful dishes! Another one of my favorite – cashews, it does not substitute in sauces, cakes, cutlets, soups, and on its basis it is possible to make delicious vegan cheese"
