New Vegan :)

[Guest guest]

Hi everybody! I'm Jenny, 26, Canadian, and I'm a new vegan (was a

vegetarian for two years, quit, then just now decided to go straight

vegan. Mercy! Ah! For the animals though.)

 

I'm glad to be here. I'm not somebody who likes gourmet food, I'm just

looking for ideas for basic things to eat for the time being, until I

learn to like my vegetables more. I'm eating things like PB and J and

veggie sandwiches, and have plans to hunt down some vegan pasta sauce

for pasta.

 

I can't have a lot of the organic vegan soups or soy meat products

because I'm allergic to onion and for some reason onion is always

contained in these items. I can eat the schneiders nuggets even though

they have onion powder, which is good, cause they taste good. :3 But I

had an allergic reaction to an organic tomato soup I bought and later

found out it was because the soup used an onion broth base.

 

Why do you need ONION in a tomato soup?

 

Anyways, I want to learn to cook my own soups and make my own foods so

I can avoid the onion problem, but since I've really never cooked much

from scratch before, I'm basically learning all this from scratch.

 

Hoping to try to make my first vegan pizza. That'll be interesting.

What kind of tomatoes work best in vegan pizza? I know you might think

the big slices, but I was thinking more of cubing up some smaller ones

.. What do you think?

 

Once again, glad to be here.
