Aside from eating vegetables and tofu, there are other ingredients or substitute that would help the transformation from a meat to vegan diet.
There are essential ingredients that is common among the recipes. For example… the MUSHROOM SEASONING exists in most Vietnamese/Chinese cuisine. It’s pretty handy to have. Furthermore, it works well in most situation from soups to mixtures in daily meals. This is available in the Asian supermarkets. I’m not sure if Vons offers it, but just check out their little section contain asian foods. It might be in there.

If you’re a busy person, check out the Vegan Mayonnaise. I think I got it at Vons. This is pretty handy to store in the fridge and take it out for a sandwich or a hamburger. It goes with anything. *O* SO GOOD!
*O* MUST HAVE
In the baking area, if you like to use a recipe, but find it contains eggs, you can seek for another recipe or use this egg replacer. Remember to follow the intruction behind the box. ;D All in all, it’s easy to use and produces wonderful deserts. By the way, I find this little baby in Henry.

When I tell my doctors that I go on a vegan diet, they often suggest me to take addition B12 because vegans lack that vitamin from just vegetables and beans. It assists nerve cells. My sister jokes about if I get “emo” or depressed, just take all the B-12 Vitamins. Don’t over dose now. A pill per week or after daily meals should be enough if you do feel the need of completing the protein chart. Other than that, the vegan diet is fully capable of providing enough nutritious proteins for the body. Also, I got this from Henry too. I think you can get this in any pharmacy without prescription.
