Answer 1

Hi, its good that your are trying to be vegan, make sure you have proper meals and eat healthily.  Maybe try and replace the cheerios with a fruity muesli, or wholemeal toast.  Replace your snacks with fruit and nuts or a soya yogurt, have poptarts/chips as a treat.

Answer 2

> cheerios -- disgusting...

> poptarts&chips ...

come on, is this a joke?

Sure, probably vegan, but... not food.   Not real food.

Why not just go to some vegan potlucks, and meet some vegan people and see and try different foods etc. Just remember, not everyone knows how to cook etc.  So, one person's pumpkin soup may taste awesome while another's (with the exact same ingredients) may taste horrid.

Answer 3

I've been a vegetarian for nearly five years (not vegan, mind you). Anyways I think that you should replace meat with sources of protein and iron, not poptarts or chips. A lot of grocery stores have good meat alternatives. I also suggest taking iron and calcium supplements if you're not getting them in your diet.

You should also eat more vegetables and fruits, they should be a big staple in your diet.  

I also think this guide is very helpful:

Answer 4

Cheerios and unfrosted poptarts are vegan. With chips, it depends on the brand - check the ingredients to make sure there's no milk. Here's a huge list of vegan foods you can find in most grocery stores: http://www.peta2.com/STUFF/s-accvegan.as...

Breakfast:

Cereal with soymilk

Toast or bagel with peanut butter or vegan butter (such as Earth Balance)

Oatmeal with fruit or maple syrup

Soy yogurt with fresh fruit

Fruit smoothie

Scrambled tofu: http://www.chooseveg.com/display_recipe....

Lunch and Dinner:

Veggie burger with tomato slices

Falafel wrap with lemon tahini dressing

Sub / hoagie with vegan mayo and vegan deli slices (like Tofurkey Deli Slices)

Vegetable stir fry with Morningstar Farms Meal Starters Chik'n Strips

Spaghetti, tomato sauce, and Nate's Meatless Meatballs

Black bean burrito

Roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes

Pizza, quesadillas, and grilled cheese with vegan cheese

BLT with Smart Bacon -- make sure you really fry the bacon until it's crispy.

Answer 5

TRY THIS ONE!!!!!!!



Stir-fry

This is really quick and easy to prepare and you can use a wide variety of vegetables according to what you have to hand. If you don't have a wok, a large, deep frying pan will do. My favourite ingredients are: carrots, mushrooms, broccoli, courgettes, runner beans, sweetcorn, baby corn cobs, bamboo shoots, tofu, bell peppers, beansprouts, cauliflower, shredded white cabbage etc. etc. Best of all is mock duck or mock chicken, which is made of gluten and available in tins from Chinese supermarkets.



1 onion, chopped

1 clove of garlic, peeled and crushed (optional)

Various vegetables, as above

½ pint (200ml) vegetable stock

Tomato puree

Soy sauce

Sunflower seeds or pine nuts

Fry onion and garlic for 3 to 4 minutes in a little olive oil. Add vegetables, starting with the firmest (e.g. add carrots first; mushrooms and pre-cooked tinned vegetables last), frying them as you go. Add generous quantities of soy sauce and fry for a couple more minutes. Pour in the vegetable stock and add 1 tablespoon of tomato puree. Add mixed herbs, salt and pepper and simmer until the vegetables are just cooked enough to eat (They should still be firm, not boiled soft). Serve with rice or rice noodles.
