They are so crunchy just like a crouton or something with that type of texture

@ValerieJ I think you've inspired me. I made homemade taco sauce today too for on top of my burrito bowl.

It's nice to meet new people who eat similar. I am trying to get a friend to try plant based for a few days a week because she wants to become fully plant-based, but she doesn't really know how. It's hard to find a starting point when you first start.

Whenever I cook something I send it to her and she always makes the recipe. Usually I will make her favorite foods plant based them send a pic of them to her.

I was a vegetarian, not vegan, when I worked at the Humane Society. I learned a lot there and it turned me off to commercially "raised" cattle and chickens. So, we eat more fish than anything. We do eat chicken and beef, but we get it from known sources, where the cattle and chickens have a decent life at least until that one bad day. It still bothers me. I love to cook, and cook everything from scratch. I buy very few canned goods. So, I don't think I eat similar to you, except in that last respect of cooking natural foods.

Now I have iron issues. So red meat is good for that, but honestly I just don't want it that often. I have found that a masticating juicer and some beets, carrots, celery, tomato, cucumber and apple is the very best way to get iron into the system, so I do this often. I should do it every day, but I don't get around to it some days.

I like that my family will eat my plant based food and not say anything. Then they eat it all

I'm bringing some of those roasted chickpeas to a swim meet tomorrow for a little snack. I guarantee my father will eat them all. He says he doesn't like my "healthy food", but always tries it then eats it all.

I made chickpea "tuna" before and DH tried it then asked why I was eating tuna. I just stood there laughing.

I use an Omega masticating juicer. It will get all the juice out of a carrot or a beet!

Mmmm tacos... I was going to do tacos today but I decided on making a burrito bowl. Better than Chipotle which is probably one of my most favorite places!

Have to get swap gifts for tomorrow's Christmas party before I eat though. Thinking candles and adult coloring books. It has to be less than $10.
