My husband and I are going on our third year vegan anniversary! Before going vegan (more info on why here) I was vegetarian for many years before that. Since I share and post quite a bit about my vegan diet on my social media channels for friends and family to see, I do sometimes (happily!) get to answer some questions about starting a vegan diet or switching over to a diet with less meat and dairy.  

On top of the other reasons for switching over to a more plant-based and vegan diet, food allergies (especially to dairy) are common. I recently put the special list below together for a friend and I thought why no also share it with you below! Below is a list of Quick Non-Dairy / No Meat meals that are microwavable (great for or college dorms, break rooms, travel, or apartments with small kitchenettes). Most of the following items are available in most US food stores. Feel free to utilize this list if you're working on transitioning your shopping list and diet to swap out meat / dairy.

    Plantbased Meal Ideas

    Hey there, I'm an advocate of a cruelty-free or at the very least less cruel lifestyle. Plant-based eating has been proven to cause less harm overall to sentient animals. Why not try adding some more plant-based foods into your diet.
