My dd wants to go vegan
I need helpful ideas. My 14 year old daughter has decided that she wants to go vegan. Not a bad idea, except she eats very few vegetables. This is my child who could have been a carnivore and has eaten mostly meat and dairy her whole life. She has decided that milk upsets her stomach - could be so, it bothers mine. She won't eat beans and picks the peas and lima beans out of vegetable fried rice - which she usually eats with orange chicken (both from trader joes). Tonight for dinner, we got fajitas from Rosa's and she put spanish rice and lettuce in a tortilla with salsa. I figure that is pretty good although I wish she would have put in a bit of the refried beans. She will eat some types lettuce and has salad sometimes - prefers ranch dressing on it and I am not going to tell her there is milk in it. Perhaps she will figure that out. I do cook lots of fresh veggies from my garden from scratch - but she won't eat them.
Anyway, I have no problem with her eating a vegan diet if she will eat veggies. I need suggestions of good meals for her. She won't eat tofu or seitan or green beans or broccoli or anything that seems too healthy. Reminds me a bit of the book I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato (we have that book at home). I bought some almond milk and she drank some, but not a lot of it. So please share suggestions. Thanks!
