Well so far so good on this Vegan diet. I had one minor incident yesterday when I was cutting the crust off my son's grilled cheese sandwich. I was listening to my husband tell me a story about something that happened in school when I picked up the crust I had just cut off and put in my mouth. I chewed it and then it hit me! You are not eating dairy right now!!!! So I ran to the trash and spit it out. My kids and husband thought it was hilarious.
Last night I made a delicious vegan recipe from Compassion Over Cruelty. It is not necessarily low in fat, but is definitely still good for you and high in protein. Enjoy!
Cheesy Broccoli Soup
Serves 8
2 cups cashew pieces
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup nutritional yeast flakes
1/4 onion, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dill weed
1/2 cup pimiento
7 cups water
8 cups chopped broccoli
1. In a blender, add the first seven ingredients (cashew pieces through pimentos) and half of the water.
2. Blend on high until creamy, 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Pour the mixture into a saucepan and add the rest of the water and the chopped broccoli.
4. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until slightly thickened and broccoli is tender.
