Guinness is now vegan. Some beers use sugar from crushed animal bones.
I bet Marc Almond does.Better than almond milk.
Almonds don't have titties.
Been thinking for a while that I would go vegetarian/vegan for at least 1 day a week (well, starting at that at least) but I’ve never been overly inspired by any recipes I’ve seen. I’m not after meat-substitute, but something completely different. Can anyone point me in the direction of some good tried-and-tested veggie recipes?
I love some of the meat substitutes.I started by making vegetable lasagne in substitute of beef. If you have fajitas, instead of chicken I used roasted butternut squash and black bean. Doesn't sound great, but add the spices and it's, in my opinion, superior.
I'm quite an adventurous cook though and a lot of cultures around the world have delicious no meat meals. It's good to experiment with them. You can substitute a lot of meals instead of meat. Although, I would never have a meat substitute (Quorn, Linda McCartney shite etc).

Really nice in my opinion.

After my heart bypass many years ago, my veggie step daughter tried to convert me (not a bleedin' chance!). Anyway, she gave me a recipe that I thought I'd try, and for a confirmed meat eater like me, I find it really nice. It's called a Mediterranean Bake. Here's the recipe. It's so easy and serves at least 3 or 4.Been thinking for a while that I would go vegetarian/vegan for at least 1 day a week (well, starting at that at least) but I’ve never been overly inspired by any recipes I’ve seen.

Someone told me that same thing some time ago. I was invited along for a "Veggie Spaghetti Bolognese" made with Quorn. "Plenty of flavour!" they said, "You'll never know the difference!"..............Been using Quorn mince for years anyway and in a spagbol or something similar with lots of flavour I think most people would struggle to notice the difference.

It was like chewing on the insides of an old straw mattress! Never again!
Yes, liked them. Still like the LM ones too though.@Otis did you ever get round to trying cauldron?
And don't get me started on Linda McCartney sausages:
Rehydrated Textured Soya Protein (64%), Soya Protein Concentrate, Palm Oil, Seasoning (Sulphites) (Dextrose, Salt, Flavourings, Onion Powder, Yeast Extract, Colour: Red Iron Oxide), Rapeseed Oil, Rusk (Fortified Wheat Flour (Wheat Flour), Calcium Carbonate, Iron, Niacin, Thiamin), Salt, Raising Agent: Ammonium Hydrogen Carbonate), Stabiliser: Methyl Cellulose; Tomato Puree, Salt.
Yes, liked them. Still like the LM ones too though.
Can't compare them because they have different tastes. Could definitely have them both on my plate as different elements of a dish.
They were nice, so cheers for that.
I also tried the No Bull burgers from Iceland. I believe they have won the award for the best tasting vegan burger.
Quite liked them too.
It's funny how many people on here (including meat eaters) have the Quorn mince. Can't say I like it at all.
Like Tony says, the Quorn nuggets taste just like chicken nuggets, so I really like them.
For me, the worst two Quorn products are their sauages and the mince.
Quorn Mince in a Lasagne doesn't really taste much different. It's weird to cook though.
Same as the Quorn bits to substitute chicken, how are you meant to "brown it off"?
Knowing you Nick, you would only be interested in pissing it off.Quorn Mince in a Lasagne doesn't really taste much different. It's weird to cook though.

Do you cook tea? We tend to boil it...well the water anyway.Not sure how your wife cooks your tea but I'm not into that. Not with the price of Quorn anyway.
Why? I think everyone should be a carnivore. Save the plants! Eat meat!…….. Think everyone should be a veggie, or at least cut down substantially on meat.

They can have the greens and plants they've always eaten for millions of years. Man was born omnivore. Cattle, sheep chickens etc, can't physically eat meat. They don't have the biological make-up for it. Pigs, however, will eat anything - even other pigs!If we’re saving the plants what are we going to feed the animals that we’re going to eat instead? Mmmmm.

Ha! I like neither!Bean Chilli, chickpeas / black eyed beans / mushrooms
I have this a few times a year: Somerset stew with cheddar & parsley mash
You can't really go wrong with anything that has chickpeas and lentils in imo
Anyone any good veggie ideas for work? Work in an office with a microwave but that's about it. Bored of just scabby sandwiches and falafel wraps!
