I'm contemplating courting a vegan girl. I know very little about vegan cooking and I would like to cook her some extravagant and substantial meals. Perhaps potato and mushroom function well as meat substitutes in a lot of occasions? I also want to know more about vegan desserts, as my fundamental understanding for most pastries, baked goods, or sweet filling relies on dairy cream or egg. Can anyone throw some good suggestions, off the beaten path ideas, or good substitutes for typical meals?
>>22031264>Chat, make my bait sound as gay as possible
>>22031264I've known several vegan women and mostly they just eat fake cheese pizza rolls and shit like that.
>>22031264Vegans hate when you cook for them because they have to know for a fact every ingredient is organic and vegan friendly and they are unwilling to take your word for it
>>22031264that gif is irritatingI thought something was wrong with my browser
>>22031264It's pretty easy to make vegan cakes/cookies. Just use oil instead of butter, applesauce or another egg replacer. Coconut milk/cream works well instead of dairy. Vegan desserts might be one of the easier things to make.>Perhaps potato and mushroom function well as meat substitutes in a lot of occasions?For flavor yeah, some people may find it not very filling though. Some people get satiated easily by starch but others don't. Obviously you can use stuff like tofu or fake meats but nuts and seeds are good for adding something heartier to a dish with healthy fat.African peanut stew is something easily made vegan and I prefer that version of it since the peanut butter is already filling enough. Plenty of vegetarian Indian food could easily be made vegan by just using oil/coconut/tofu instead of dairy products. Something like Thai green curry with tofu instead of meat/fish would probably be pretty good. Nachos with beans or fake taco meat and salsa/guacamole. Peanut butter or sesame noodles. Ful medames without the egg.
>>22031290hah
>>22031264Force feed her your meat thus breaking her vegan-faggotry
>>22031305Yeah nah. That's wayyyyy too much work and wayyyyy too weird ethnic slop. I'm thinking more along the lines of french fries and vegan frozen pizza
>>22031320ayyyyy lmao
The only possible manoeuvre is to go in with the intention of psychologically steering her towards eating meat.Veganism is so unhealthy it's akin to slow suicide and willingly building a relationship with such a person is significantly detrimental to your own continued healthy existence.
>>22031264oh word Gwhats it say?
buddha's delight will make her wet. a good runner up is hunan braised tofuasians don't fuck around with the vegetarian stuff
My sister is a vegan and she likes my Mexican rice. >Blitz a can of tomatoes in a blender>Make up some vegan chicken stock (you want 3 cups of liquid including the tomatoes)>Rinse one and a half cups of rice>Fry an onion in olive oil>When translucent add rice and toast until golden (add more oil if needed, you want to coat the rice)>Add chopped garlic and jalapeƱos, a teaspoon of cumin, teaspoon of ground coriander and a teaspoon of smoked paprika >Season with salt and pepper and fry until fragrant>Pour over tomatoes and stock and stir>Simmer with lid on for 15ish minutes or until liquid evaporates >Take off the heat and let it steam for 10 minutes>Add a chopped green bell pepper, black beans, corn kernels, chopped cilantro and lime juice >Stir everything in then serve with hot sauce if desiredI love to reheat the next day with cheese on top, and/or a fried egg and hot sauce. I can also hit you with a recipe, pic related.
Sister is vegan, gf is vegetarian. Vegetarian cooking is more tedious to achieve something that is at the same time good AND nutritionally balanced. You can't fuck up seasoning, and I'm not talking about just salt. You have to get the best out of every ingredient (cooking technique, doneness, texture). Pastry is even more of a headache but there are some smart tricks and techniques. If I were you I'd start to practice long before the first meal.
just make regular stuff but without meat, replace meat with beans. works fine.also chia seed gel works as a replacement for eggs in baking stuff.

>>22031264to truly succeed with vegan cooking you need to separate yourself mentally from the entire idea of "meat substitutes" and be more creativethe idea isn't to substitute meat and replicate dishes 1:1 like that, that's how you end up with the utter dogshit that gives vegan food a bad reputationjust download a couple vegan cookbooks and for baking read up on the actual mechanics of flour and alt-flours. highly recommend getting your own mill at home to avoid paying the retard tax for non-wheat flours. bag of chickpeas is $2, bag of chickpea flour is $10
>>22031264Only advice is this really good vegan lasagna recipehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xrgvJ7LNhk
>>22031341>>22031312Why are flesh eaters so fucking gay hahaha, love that meat shoved down their throats. Faggots.>>22031264>>22032122Mushrooms are the exact same texture and cooking process of flesh. Tofu is okay, I dont eat it though. As for not using eggs, just use extra oil. Do not at all means use "beyond meat" or meat alternatives, God knows what garbage they put in that stuff.
>>22032139>meat eaters are gay for shoving meat down their throat>anyways shove this phallic plant down your throat
>>22032145>No YOU ARE GAYFlesh eaters are fucking retarded
>>22032145mushrooms aren't plants
>>22032148>act like plants>grow like plants>seeds like plants>technically different branch in evolutionGoddamn should have known better, my bad my fellow faggot.
>>22032150>act like plants>grow like plants>seeds like plantsanon...
>>22032173>Uhhm technically they have a differenceTell me any tangible difference between spores and seeds besides spores being microscopic.
>>22032182ntaplant seeds have a fully developed embryo along with an energy supply"mushroom seeds" do not, and are typically single-celled(you) could've googled thatbut now we both know
>>22032184Oh I do get that they have differente mechanics, I am not saying they are literally the same rather that they have similar enough function that you can get away with calling them mushroom seeds.
>>22032196that's fair, i guess>from the makers of mushroom seeds, a new incredible product>the plant seed; featuring an already fertilized gamete, plus a battery pack that will let you get your seedlings power charged right from the start>impress your neighbors with your non-microscopic gametes>hurt your neighbors by scattering seeds on a flat surface that they tend to walk bare-feet over>move to another neighborhood and repeat>order yours today by calling 00-800-DEESNUTS-PLANTJIZZ>you got needs? we got seeds>[company name]
>>22031305>oil replacing butter>applesauce as a binder>coconut milk replacing creamthis is shit I certainly wanted to know. primarily, thank you. >nuts and seedstrue and fair. I dated someone who'd use chia seeds and peanut butter to supplement calories in, I could do the same. What other kinds of seeds or grain additions like can I add to my repertoire? I think I saw someone use pumpkin seeds this way, iirc>>22031312>>22031341the old me would, but I'm trying to he ethical about this. I personally have tried being vegan years before as an experiment, and while it's feasible I found that restricting myself from the naturally omnivorous pallet I was born with was too annoying and fut me off from good food opportunities. That said I have shifted a girl from veggie to eating meat once and that was cool, hopefully this girl would be open to it one day too, though I need to establish (to you strangers online for some reason) that I don't have am objective of changing her nor expect her to change in this regard. I do respect her decision, hence my attempt to curtail to her diet, but I am a feeder at heart and want to express my affection the way I naturally do all the same. >>22031555what are those big fried-looking bits? looks pretty good>>22031525AahhhohAhohI shit->>22031557I have an immersion blender, I could give this a whack. Vegan chicken stock? And yes please, I'd be very interested. >>22031607I went out and bought some vegan friendly sorbet and oat milk to try and craft some things I know with these substitutes. however as >>22032122 says and was a fear I considered prior to making this thread, instead of trying to emulate what I know and getting naturally off results, I wanted to see if there were more reasonable dishes or sweets that are already well established I could learn. Experimenting has merits but is more constructive with a solid foundation so I'm not just fucking around.
>>22032196You are moving the goalposts through an argument of subjectivity after conceding (appropriately) to the rebuttal, this is an absolute backpedal.
>>22032243I aint moving shit, I said tangible difference and the rebutal I got a mere technicality in function. heck im gonna double down. The mushroom caps behave like fruits in dispersing seeds.
I dated one for a while, their farts smell really bad. I would have to make her pasta and rice and lentils and breads. Lot's of carb heavy meals. Beans...
>>22031264I made vegan apple pie and gave it to my coworkers and they loved it and asked for seconds multiple times. Just replace the butter with margarine in the dough. You can also make sweets with dark chocolate + dates (+ peanut butter).
>>22032241>What other kinds of seeds or grain additions like can I add to my repertoire? I think I saw someone use pumpkin seeds this way, iircPumpkin seeds can work. I'm not vegan but was interested in making "sikil pak" lately which is basically a salsa and pumpkin seed pesto. That would probably be good on pasta or just for a chip dip. Walnut "meat" is also an option, just make sure you simmer it long enough for whatever so it actually softens which can take 1-2 hours.

>>22032801Let me know what you want.
>>22031264Dude, avoid the mental illness. If you just want to fuck her a few times, fine, but don't waste your time long-term.I had a classmate whose wife was vegan, and forced their toddler to eat a vegan diet. At age 3, the toddler weighed less than a neighbor's 1yo. It's sad to see a child being intentionally starved and left malnourished all because the mother wants to virtue-signal about how "kind" she is to (non-human) animals.It hits me especially hard because I have a major heart defect and lifelong kidney problems that are entirely due to my mother trying to starve me to death before being born, then trying to starve me to death for the next two years because she didn't want me to be fat. Instead, my metabolism is so fucking slow that I literally gain weight on 1300 calories per day.
Vegan hate food, if they didn't they wouldn't have become vegans. You're talking about the person who rejected the steak, not the cow hugger.Prepare to find that s bizarre number of processed foods contain animal origin products as an additive in insubstantial quantities because there was no commercial reason to avoid them. So you will pay an eye watering tax on vegan friendly products, which either you didn't know could even contain animal products, or which never had animal products and are just a scam. Try explaining to your gf how buying a years worth of vegan salt wasn't a sound financial decision. It was special salt. She felt good about buying it. You should feel good about working for it. Prepare for performance eating. Either she's anorexic and veganism is the cover story, she actually eats meat but just lies to everyone, including you, and you must pretend she's a vegan, even if you know she's not, and she knows you know. It's an important part of her social image. You should feel good about it. You should feel good about telling people she's a vegan. Today she's eating only spinach, tomorrow only nuts. Balanced diet isn't performance. Eating a whole bowl of nuts is. Enjoy dating someone who is physically unwell, often sick, anaemic, always tired and sharing a bed with an insomniac.
>>22033201>Enjoy dating someone who is physically unwell, often sick, anaemic, always tired and sharing a bed with an insomniac.>t. retardMost vegans supplement the shit they need
The root cause of western Veganism is endemic obesity. Vegans have a huge social advantage because malnutrition and self starvation are the polar opposite to obesity. So many western women are morbidly obese that and woman who isn't becomes high value. No matter how pretty she was, if she's fat she's a 3 at best. I dated vegans because I hate fat people, unfortunately I found that mentally ill women who become vegans, when you date them, become mentally sound again and just get fat. I've cured four women of Veganism only for them to get fat. That's why they date a guy who can cook. So there's a natural arc to Veganism, crazy, ill, fat. Crazy bitch decides to become a vegan, becomes ill, becomes passably hot by dint of not being fat, becomes sane and then gets fat again.
>>22033210The fuck they do. They're so susceptible to health advertising that what they think are supplements are usually expensive goji Berry type shit, and many decide to go vegan knowing nothing whatsoever about nutrition then try to catch up, and their diet being largely preformarive they take iron tablets about a reliably as they take the pill.
>>22033210Most look sickly
>>22031264Fun fact: Cum is vegan.
