vegan

Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of any product created by or obtained from any living creature.
Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of animal products, particularly in diet, and an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of animals. A follower of the diet or the philosophy is known as a vegan. Distinctions may be made between several categories of veganism. Dietary vegans refrain from consuming animal products, not only meat but also eggs, dairy products and other animal-derived substances. The term ethical vegan is often applied to those who not only follow a vegan diet but extend the philosophy into other areas of their lives, and oppose the use of animals for any purpose. Another term is environmental veganism, which refers to the avoidance of animal products on the premise that the industrial farming of animals is environmentally damaging and unsustainable. Interest in veganism increased in the 2010s, especially in the latter half. More vegan stores opened and vegan options became increasingly available in supermarkets and restaurants in many countries.

    Recipe Oriental Butternut Squash, Potato & Red Grape Salad

    This version is vegan. It can be made with soya yoghurt and lemon juice, or my current preference which is pureed cashew nuts and lemon juice. However, in the making of this version, I only had coconut yoghurt to hand, limes and various other 'oriental' herbs. So I decided to have a Thai...

    Recipe Potato & Red Grape Salad

    I have been asked to write up my potato salad as a recipe which is rather difficult actually because it's one of those no quantities, just what you have, recipes. All I can tell you is that I add enough to make it look the way it is. Perhaps as the weather gets warmer here in Australia, I will...

    Recipe Vanilla & Raspberry Polenta Porridge

    This is one of my combinations that I like for breakfast. It doesn't need much in the way of polenta for a single person, and usually I manage to make way too much tbh. I put a touch of sugar in it initially and then add what I need afterwards to make it sweet enough for my tastes but not too...

    Recipe Spicy Sweet Potato, Potato, Tomato and Pea Pie

    This is an adaption of the Indian Potato Pie which we found to be OK but lacked spiciness and to some extent flavour for our tastes, so yesterday I made a variation with the addition of many more spices and tomatoes. I also prefer to use whole potatoes and adapt, rather than say a specific...
