It is good to try different diets occasionally. They give you a perspective and allow you to admire the work of nature. Nature – that gives us so many unique ingredients to work with. I mean, food always does not have to revolve around meat, poultry, and dairy ingredients. Once in a blue moon, one should turn vegetables the superstar of the meal.
I have recently started trying various vegan recipes. And to my surprise, they have turned out really well. In fact, when you are looking for a quick and easy entrée, going the vegan route is always a good choice. For instance, try vegan mushroom pepper fry.
