I’ve done some backsliding and in the tradition of the chicken and the egg, I don’t know whether the backsliding is the catalyst of my massive migraine and general feeling illish or if those led to a seeking of comfort foods which are the road to backsliding.
Cheese and shrimp are the hardest to give up, I think. Shrimp probably would not be so hard if I could find a Chinese restaurant that made tofu fried rice take out. Cheese however is like my kryptonite. Melted gooey cheese is the food of gods and goddesses and it is best served on calazones, pizzas, cheesy fries, grilled cheese sandwiches, baked potatoes, pasta, lasagna, etc… Mostly, it’s been the Italian foods with cheese that I’ve been craving of late.
It doesn’t help that I’ve figured out how to use my TomTom to tell me where the nearest Amatos is on my route home from anywhere. They have some sort of cheesy bread I can eat in the car while the eggplant parm tempts me the whole drive home.
I really need to try some of those recipes where tofu is used as a cheese substitute. It’s just so hard to cook when you feel so miserable.

You really must share the links to these websites!!!!
I’ve been eating mostly vegan for a while (I’ve even adapted some of your old recipes that I’ve had forever!
I’ve found a couple of goob web sites & books, and even a menu planner that is vegan recipes. I’ve had to dig a bit, but I’ve found some good stuff.
Hope you are feeling better soon!
