Top Five Favorite Vegan Foods!!

0



Okay so I said I was going to do this post, so I decided to get it up today!! So all of these foods since I live in Florida are bought from my local Publix. But I am almost positive that almost any other big supermarket chain like Walmart, Winn Dixie, or up north I know they have Krogers and Meyers would have these foods.


1. Rice Milk. I was hesitant to try Rice milk at first, but I was happily surprised that it actually tasted good!! It tastes like rice milk, in the sense that rice doesn't really have a dominant taste. It is sweet though, which is nice. It also looks VERY watery looking, but just try it! I buy from the brand called "Rice Dream", and I usually buy the original flavor although they come in numerous flavors. Here is the website if your interested in more ( For all of these foods mentioned I will put a link to the website) information.



2. Smart Deli Bologna and
Pepperoni. This stuff is so freaking good!! The bologna is the same texture of real bologna, and it actually tastes to me virtually identical to real bologna. It actually is incredible how much it tastes like the real kind! The pepperoni is good, it has that spicy taste. It has a slightly different texture, but it is a nice solution for the pepperoni deprived :)




3. Veganaise is the next one. Veganaise is like Mayonaise except made with out the eggs in the regular stuff. This is amazingly fabulous!! It tastes like Mayo but a tad bit sweeter, and has no Carbs and is made with all natural ingredients. I do admit this is high in fat and calories, but I do want to put out their that is a reduced fat one that is waaay better for you. It tastes virtually the same except it is a little less sweeter and has an olive oil taste to it. All in all a staple if you are a vegan.

4. Tofu Shirataki Pastas. All I can say is a whole bag of these pastas are only 40 calories!!! Yes 40 calories and only 3 carbs!! This is a great alternative if you are a vegan on a diet, and just in general. I do admit It really, really stinks like fish. Dirty fish, when you take it out of the bag. And if you put it into a pasta strainer it bubbles, and fizzes which is a little weird but hey it is only 40 calories! It does taste edible with a pretty good amount of salt, and I like to add seasoning and pasta sauce with some onions and mushrooms as well then, viola!! Oh and this pasta comes in 3 different varieties ( Angel hair, Spaghetti, and Fettuccine).


5. Cluckphrey and Moonphrey patties. Okay so these are faux chicken and Faux Beef patties. I like these both a lot! I would say that the Cluckphrey ones are my favorite because Before I was a vegan I liked chicken more so then I did beef. I like when you grill these best because it makes the patties slightly crunchier, which I LOVE!! The Moophrey patties have a slightly off taste that does taste good, and I think they added it to give it that beefy taste, but it is good when you get the taste down :) Really good overall though, Highly recommend!!
