It's Dec 28th so it's only a short time now until Veganuary starts. This evening we've been looking through the 31 day menu the organisers have posted, compiling a general shopping list. The list of ingredients is quite long, and amazingly healthy looking, but it's good that most of the ingredients are readily available in a typical Wiltshire market town.
I think we're going to be busy in the kitchen! There's not so much available here in the way of convenience food, which could be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you look at it. I've already been making a delicious tomato and lentil soup recipe from Treehugger, and we'll be making large batches of this for the freezer. This soup is satisfying enough to serve as a main meal and is bound to be a favourite.
Veganuary's facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/veganuary/ , is great and they're on twitter too https://twitter.com/WeAreVeganuary - both will be used for advice and comparing experiences.
Today we've been invited to a family do on Jan 1st, and have had to explain our special needs. Something that vegans and vegetarians have been doing for year, but the first time for us.
