I’ve never really taken seriously the tradition of making new year’s resolutions. However, I have a friend who is serious about her Resolutions. And this year she called me, all excited, to tell me about her idea:
After reading my post, Help for Omnivores interested in Veganism, she decided that one day a week, she’s going to be a vegan. Obviously, her news made me super-happy. But it also got me thinking…
Vegan Thursdays
You can make this challenge whatever you want.
It doesn’t mean you have to have a whole vegan day. It could mean trying just one vegan meal or snack that day. Or maybe not even a whole meal; maybe you just want to try a new vegan recipe or main dish. It doesn’t even need to be gourmet; pasta with tomato sauce is vegan, as are bean burritos, fruit salads… and you can find lots more Vegan Recipe Ideas..
For someone like me, maybe Vegan Thursdays can mean trying out a new vegan recipe (as opposed to something in our usual repertoire) or a new food. Maybe you’re a vegan who’s always been afraid to try seitan, for example.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it…
I’m going to start this coming Thursday. Anyone want to join me? You don’t have to participate every Thursday. Like I said, you can make this challenge what you want it to be. 🙂
I think this is a great idea! This past week, I have decided to cross into vegan-land (I am currently a vegetarian). I am on board with Vegan Thursdays 🙂
oh I definitely want to participate! 🙂
can’t wait to try some interesting vegan recipes 🙂
This is a great idea! I have been planning on eating a raw meal each week to help me like veggies more! Love it!
what a fun idea! I’ll have to think about it and come up with some ideas 🙂
If I eat vegan, will I look as pretty as you do in that picture? :)You’re glowing!
I’m definitely going to participate! Love the idea!
Great idea Katie! Most of the time we do eat at least raw/vegetarian and we have done raw/vegan in the past…I love doing both ways. Balance. Sounds like fun!
Enjoy!
This sounds pretty fun! I might try to cook a different vegan recipe every Thursday (I tend to get in a rut …). Thanks for the interesting challenge 🙂
Great idea! Thursdays are already long for me, but I can probably do a different day. I got a few new cookbooks for X-Mas that I’m ready to dive into…
I would love to!!! I eat fish and eggs right now, but it should be simple enough to swap them out…
Actually I think I will take this challenge as a challenge for my whole family- I’ll try to prepare them vegan lunches, snacks and then make a vegan dinner!! It should be fun!!
Sounds great! I fell of the vegan wagon when we went to Romania, but I think this would help me saddle back up. 🙂
