cool story cuck <| sep |> Ayup . France is , strategically seen , a natural ally for the Ottomans . Allied them in my own kebab game as well . They ' re strong , won ' t mind you eating Balkans , and help fighting the HRE . RIP your defensive conquest tho . <| sep |> You probably do <| sep |> poor taste <| sep |> It ' s a really shitty thing , but this just proves whatever he had to say about her and that he clearly deserved custody rather than her . <| sep |> No must relate to a wicket . There is a system being considered maybe even trialled ? that would have 3 rd umpire checking each ball and relaying noballs to field umpire to call , but player review must be about a wicket . <| sep |> Okay , I am absolutely hopeless in the kitchen . I ' m not being cute or funny . I am ACTUALLY terrible in the kitchen . Before I went vegan , my most complicated dish was a piece of toast . I ' m just telling you this because you CAN do it . I highly doubt you would be anywhere near as hopeless as me domestically . Like you , I felt super overwhelmed by all the recipes . You ' re right , most of them are fancy ass and it ' s really offputting . They have weird ingredients or require every kitchen appliance ever invented , and overall it just feels like a nightmare . I made the snap decision I was going vegan overnight and I did it , so I had to learn fast . This is what I found usefulIt ' s not always about following those fancy ass recipes . I had the most success making my own stuff . Not all of it worked , not all of it I ' d make again , but I also came up with a few things that are now staples even for my omni SO . If you have access to vegan cheese , and a few other staples , here are a few dishes you can veganise without too much trouble and they taste so damn good 1 . Pasta bake . Veggie mince , vegan cheese , pasta and some meaty vegetables such as mushrooms . Delicious , simple . Preheat your oven , precook your pasta and other ingredients , mix it all in a nice baking dish and away you go . 2 . Tacos . If you can find vegan wraps somewhere or use lettuce ? , you can have tacos ! Veggie mince or bean mix if you like beans , vegan cheese , vegan sour cream such as Tofutti , salsa , tomato , lettuce , etc . Easy , delicious and appeals to omnis too ! Once you ' re thinking along those kind of lines not following fancy recipes so much as looking how to veganise familiar favorites I think it ' s easier . Once you find a vegan cheese you can have happily , it opens up a heap of dishes . Also , once you have a staple list of groceries you always buy , it just becomes simple . My staple vegan grocery list Frozen stir fry veggies of various varieties Cheese slices , block and grated Sour cream Sauces tomato , bbq , mustards , soy sauce , and so on Fruit ! Fresh veggies ! If you ' re not organized enough to handle fresh veggies and no judging here snap frozen is fine . A good tip is to nuke them for about 12 the recommended cooking time , then stir fry themwok themetc . Makes them taste a lot better and avoids that gross kind of soggy microwave veggie feel . In my opinion , one of your first steps as a new or aspiring vegan should be to figure out what vegan products of old favorites you like . Cheese , sour scream , sauces , chocolate , mock meats . This is to help you ease into it and not feel such a huge shock right at the start . You don ' t always have to eat things like mock meat , but it ' s awesome to open the fridge and just be able to say , Yeah , I ' ll have a ' ham ' and ' cheese ' sandwich or similar . Lastly , don ' t underestimate the humble stir fry . Amazing for weeknightswork daysbusy nights , cook up an extra large batch and hey , you ' ve got lunch for the next day or even dinner . Swap your sauces start off buying premade ones many are accidentally vegan , and slowly work your way in to making your own . Again stressing I was a terrible cook I now make my own stroganoff without a recipe , I wing my own sauces and they ' re usually pretty good ! , and I can work out how to veganise most things if I have google handy . Don ' t be afraid to google ! It ' s such a good tool , even just simple stuff like vegan alternative for X . For example , a vegan substitute for honey is maple syrup . Easy ! The great thing about stir fry and different sauces is you can mix it up super easily . Throw it over pasta , rice the next night . Change the sauces so one night you ' re having stroganoff I recommend mushroom stroganoff , one of my new staples , I am seriously drooling just thinking about it , the night sweet ' n ' sour , then something else totally different . You can also mix your veggies up so even though you ' re just having stir fry again , it ' s a different enough meal that I found I could easily have it several times a week and it didn ' t phase me . Also , don ' t be afraid to try tofu ! I recommend trying it from a reputable restaurant first . I tried cooking it myself first with NO clue what I was doing , and I honestly thought holy shit , tofu is disgusting . Well by chance I ' ve now been more or less forced due to lack of options to have tofu from restaurants , and let me tell you , tofu is delicious . Just don ' t ask me personally how to prepare it so it ' s delicious because frankly , I have no idea yet ! This is a good starting list , a Vegan Substitution Listsubstitutions for cookingeating . Good luck ! Feel free to ask me any questions and I ' ll try and help .
