Introduction

I know I have no members here yet, but here's a little intro if you are thinking about joining. I'm vegetarian, I was a vegetarian for 5 years before my first born was about 1. However I changed back to consuming meat as I was finding it hard to cook vegetarian & meats meals as my son & husband were not vegetarian. However 6 months ago I decided to make the change again. I am the only one in my family taking on the challenge though. Many years ago I used to write a recipe page in a local magazine, so I am keen to dig out those recipes and create more to share. If you are thinking about becoming vegetarian, but don't quite know where to start please message me and I will try to help out. Many people are becoming vegetarian not only because they love animals and for ethical and moral reasons, but also because it's healthy, economical and sustainable. Namaste, Mel.

  • I am slowly tyurning more and more to bvegetables as a staple rather then a side dish. I luv pasta and rice and vegetables fruits and nuts...but have no idea how to combine all of it into a tasty dish that anyone can eat. My family are big meat eaters but i am not. i hoping to learn how to do vegetarian meals.
  • Hi I have been a vegetarian for 3 years now and love the food I eat. I grow what I can and get better each year as I have joined a local gardening club which has a lot of experienced vegie gardeners. Water restrictions are hard in Western Australia so I am composting and mulching to try & help. Will have to look at water tanks soon but cost is prohibitive. Happy to share recipices if someone can show me how to add an attachment!

Nice to know there's some others around. I just posted a wee rave and link on the Vege Families chat group I belong too so maybe some mose will show up soon? Anyway, nice to meet you Mel and thanks for the group,

  • Hi Lynn,

    Welcome and good on you for taking a honest interest in healthier eating. I am quite busy with work and family these days, but I do intend to give you some advice. Hopefully over the weekend I can write some more.

    Love & Light,
    Mel.
  • Hi Mel... I've just joined tonight, and read your post about becoming vegetarian. I'm not vegetarian, but I love vegetarian recipes, and I find I tend to skip meat quite a lot anyway. However, I would love some tips on creating a balanced, wholesome, nutritious diet without meat. I do eat eggs and some dairy. I feel I need to change some things to gain a better grasp on my health. I look forward to hearing from you. Namaste, Lynn
