Hi all,
Other than Linda Mc Cartney sausages (which my kids and their friends love), and nut/bean burgers and falafels (which their friends DO NOT appreciate), pretty much all the vegan convenient 'meaty' or 'cheesy' products I can get hold of are Soya based... I'm not anti soya by any means, but with the convenience of soya milk, soya yogurts, soya ice cream, soya sandwich 'meats', tofu and TVP taking over our diet, I'm really keen NOT to become over-reliant on one type of food! My kids will have lentil, bean and nut based meals fairly often too, but these do not go down well with their friends who will be coming for tea at least two nights a week. Quorn used to be my usual fall back, but now I'm looking for inspiration! I want the boys' vegan diet to seem appealing not bland and weird to their friends, and for their parents to be able to recognise it as nutritionally adequate, because that's the best advert isn't it!
What do your kids/picky eaters/omni friends enjoy?
