“Almost Vegan”

My husband and I went “almost vegan” about a year ago. This also included excluding gluten and all sugar where possible. I say “almost vegan” because we decided to keep fish in our diet (including shell fish), and have decided in the last month to add eggs back in. On special occasions (such as birthdays, holidays, etc.) we depart from the diet entirely and indulge in meat and wheat. We’ve found some other words to describe our diet, the closest being flexitarian, but what really matters to us is that we’re eating healthy, organic (where possible), non GMO (where possible) and that we’re happy.

The last year has been quite a culinary adventure.  Since ‘converting’ I’ve been experimenting with several recipes, trying to find those favorites I could replace my favorite non-vegan dishes with. I'm happy to say that we're over the "HOW ARE WE GONNA SURVIVE WITH NO MEAT" mentality, and have developed a healthy, consistent, fulfilling diet.
