Follow-up to vegetarianism.
It’s been several weeks now.
I haven’t had too many issues with the change in diet. Although I will admit, that realizing that I
couldn’t live off shrimp was a major disappointment. I started this experiment with the
understanding that it would not be easy, and ensuring proper nutrition would
require more thought than simply subbing a portabello burger in place of
meat. However, I am finding it to be a
larger lifestyle change than I had anticipated.
Limitations at restaurants are rampant, and the necessity to actually
cook meals has been a transition. I
suppose that’s what has affected my lifestyle the most. I don’t like to cook. I prefer to do “semi home made.” This would generally consist of a store
bought rotisserie chicken which I would de-done and assemble into a taco by way
of tortilla. But of course, this change
is a good thing- for my pocketbook and our health.
A few random facts:
The grilled cheese (burger no meat) at In n Out is
adequately satisfying.
The veggie wrap at CSULB’s Beach Walk Café could not be any
grosser, although their grain bowl is very good.
I’ve developed a new love for baja fish tacos- not sure how
if eating deep fried fish doused in mayonnaise based sauce is a winner though.
Mushroom tacos are a god send.
I had the most amazing boca burger at Mountain High last
week!! I may start snowboarding that
resort just for the excellent grill.
Loved it.
My kids love tofu!!!! I can’t seem to buy enough of the
stuff to satisfy them. This is probably
the best part of this experiment.
Moving onto cookbooks and getting down with the
veggies. Fun!!
