4. Mix Cooked and Raw Ingredients
Going vegan doesn’t have to be as hard as you think. Experiencing the best of raw and cooked foods is an excellent means of varying the taste and texture of meals. You don’t need to be so one-sided with your meals. Going vegan doesn’t have to be serving cooked vegetables with your fried rice.
Change things up and get the best of both worlds with every meal. For example, serve cooked spinach and rice with raw bamboo shoots and fresh sprouts. Add in a little bit of fermented kimchi, and you have a meal that features a wide range of nutrients, flavors, and tastes. This type of meal-arrangement comes packed with fiber and nutrients, and it contains a healthy dose of prebiotic fiber as well.
Your dinner plate is your playground, and you shouldn’t feel limited by what anyone else tells you to do. Experiment with different types of food and find out what flavor variations work for you.
