What can I eat? Vegetarian issue?!
I don't like to become a complete vegetarian because I eat meat once a week max!. I'm struggling at times!. Tonight my mom is making roast pork with green beans and potatoes!. I really don't like the meat but I don't know what I could replace it with!. I hate tofu and don't have any tempeh!. I want a full nutritious meal but my dad will get mad if I start making other stuff!. What do I do!? Www@FoodAQ@Com

Some things like the soup can be frozen!. I freeze mine in these white corelle soup mugs, then on nights like that I just put it in the microwave and its fine!. For some reason people won't think of it as making "something else" its more like you heating up a leftover!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

if u want, u can try meatless meat!. they look and taste like meat, but they're 100% made of soy!. they're in the groceries in the frozen pre-cooked meat isle, or tofu isle!. since they're not real meat, you dont have to cook as long and sometimes they dont even allow you to use the stove or oven - just use the microwave!.
some suggestions are President's Choice brands of:
