HI everyone this is my first time posting here but I could use some help.
I've been vegetarian for about 14 years about 4 of those being spent vegan, then some health problems forced me to stop being vegan and now I do eat vegan as often as possible but am not always able to. Part of that being multiple food allergies. I've been wanting to go back to being vegan for a few years but just haven't had the motivation due to "what the heck am I going to eat"
If you have any ideas/help I'd love to hear. Things I am allergic to include:
soy
wheat
corn
peanuts (this includes legume sensitivities)
tree nuts
So pretty much every veggie source of protein...I did an elimination diet and that certainly helped. I am able to tolerate small amounts of wheat products though pasta is the worst. Corn is bad, as is soy. My allergist says no to all nuts/peanuts.
Food is not fun for me.
