Go Green
I bought about 10 new cookbooks when I decided to become gluten and dairy free and through this I accidentally turned myself into a vegan for almost 3 months. I didn't even notice that I hadn't had meat in those 3 months as the recipes I had been making were so good and filling. I had whole cookbooks where everything was just veggies, vinegars, oils and spices. I am not a vegan and have definitely added meat back into my diet but I do still love experimenting with vegetables. For anyone Vegan - these are for you!
