Disclosure: I love to cook. I love to eat. I think I cook really well.
You don't have to be a trained chef or gourmand to eat well. Learning the basic techniques and having the proper tools will ensure your success. If you can dice and saute onion and garlic, you have the foundation for many great meals. If you can light a BBQ, you're halfway to portabello burgers and grilled asparagus.
At the Stay Vegan compound, dinner is the climax of the day. We usually start planning while we're eating dinner the night before. I probably take longer to cook, shop and plan than most, but it doesn't have to be this way. A simple raw salad or pizza with pre-made dough will only take a half-hour or so to make. Cooking allows you to eat EXACTLY what you want, when you want, without worrying if the restaurant's cook properly cleaned the flat grill before your toast went on it.
Cooking also saves cash. I'm sure you know that, but I felt it had to be stated.
Cooking takes you from staying vegan, to loving veganism.
Stay vegan!
