I’ve been vegetarian for just over a year now, and have no intention of going back to eating meat. The most difficult thing for me is relearning how to cook, I mostly try to find replacements for meat proteins in recipes I already know, so seitan for pork, impossible for ground beef, mushrooms for steak. But my biggest problem is chicken, for the life of me I can’t find a good replacement for chicken and my chicken based recipes are (were) some of my favorite comfort foods.
I’m also always learning completely new recipes involving veg and tofu. But I miss my chicken casseroles and chicken enchiladas dang it!
I’m on a 3 year old account. Made it way back when this was still only dev.lemmy.ml and there was no federation.
I have mostly been sitting on the account, lurking occasionally, waiting for something like this to happen. Glad people are finally moving away from reddit
*edit: can’t count
