Hi Thess,
Lindsay at IPE here.
We love hearing that this inspires you!
We’re so happy you like the list.
Hello
At the moment I’m eating Vegan for 49 days (all for Greek Lent). I’m a week into this personal challenge ive set for myself and I feel like it’s much easier than i thought. The hard bit is coming up with different recipes to make that also dont require a massive amount of time to prepare. I’ve always eaten healthily, so I guess this is the reason why I don’t feel like this is too tough – but I’ve noticed that its so hard to get dairy free and egg free foods in everyday life or in restaurants! Anw, just wanted to say that this list of blogs is really helpful and I will be checking them out for recipes.
Any useful tips from people out there would be much appreciated and please check out my blog to see how I’m doing! thanks x
Hi CC –
Lindsay here at IPE.
Wow, what a lovely undertaking you’ve begun to celebrate Lent. It’s funny how when we make a decision from a place of choice and freedom, it doesn’t feel as “hard” as when we’ve coerced ourselves into making a change. As far as finding vegan-friendly foods in “everyday life” or restaurants, it all depends on where you live. However, both VegGuide and Happy Cow will have directories of the US as well as countries around the world to make finding these sorts of places a little easier. Of course, the blogs we have listed above will have plenty of recipes to play with.
Hope this helps!
