You can buy the Veggie Burger “meat“ which is a type of tofu in every supermarket

You put it into a pan and frie it for about 5 minutes

PICTURE

- Cooked pasta- With tomato soup - And tofu (replaces the meat)

Add some salt and cheese to it

New food routines More consciousness Consumer awareness

Being a vegetarian changed my view of a lot of things Started thinking about products, organic food, and health of a

human and animals Reason: because I was researching facts in the internet Information about water consumption for animals had a lot to deal

with animal testing ect.

SLIGHTLY CHANGED

- Potatoes from the market, small farmer

- Person who sells the products: producer/ farmer

- Add a litle bit of ‘Maggie‘ which is a spice

- You can add any type of vegetable you would like to have in your soup

Of soup…made in a di fferent way

PICTURE

- Made out of organic ingredients

- We used organic blueberries for our cupcakes

- We read through the information, on the packagings

Of cupcakes, made out of organic products

PICTURE(S)

At first- Challenge for myself

- opened a new package of sliced cold meat

->(was my favorite)

- rough time fighting the desire to eat meat

- September, 29th, 2014 – BBQ with my neighbours, everyone ate meat and sausages -> I had a veggie burger.

EXPERIENCE

How i managed my challenges

- Different strategies to avoid meat in my meal

- (New ideas for breakfast and dinner)

- Likes for alternative food

- Felt a little bit special, because everyone else was eating meat

EXPERIENCE

- Consumption of meat

- Keep recipes and collect new ones

- Get the family to colaborate

- Pay attention to products in general and their ingredients

- Reject animal testing, avoid unnecessary products which imply excessive animal testing

OUTLOOK

Sources SOURCES

The most part are my feelings, my thoughts, my experience and conclusion

I took the pictures by myself The recipes I found in Rossmann (has a huge section of organic

and vegetarian food)

Most packagings have recipes on them -> Brought a packaging with me!
