I really need to get a couple decent vegan cookbooks and just start experimenting, I think.

When I was a child I used to "steal" it from the fridge and hide under the table to eat it. However, I hate mushrooms. Which, apparently as a vegan, I am supposed to love. Everyone, omnivores and vegans alike, seem to think I have some duty to eat them. Yuck. I love broccoli. When I was a child I used to “steal” it from the fridge and hide under the table to eat it.

I'd say it adds about 15-20 minutes a day. Mazaru, there is an increase in prep time (not so much in shopping time). I’d say it adds about 15-20 minutes a day.
