Embracing an exclusively plant-based diet can be a rewarding and satisfying venture; for some, it’s more than just a lifestyle choice. It’s the conscious decision one makes to not only embrace healthy and clean eating but to take a stand towards protecting the environment and promoting a cleaner and greener world.
For some who make this choice, it might prove a bit difficult starting out…especially if you’re a kitchen novice or happen to fall under the category of those who can’t tell the difference between pan frying and sautéing. You should know that going vegan is not as complicated as it sounds; there’s an entire herbivorous world out there packed full of great tasty meals that do not require rocket science to put together.
