If you don’t eat meat or if you’re cutting back a little for the environment or your health, you can use some culinary alchemy to turn chickpeas, cauliflower, butternut squash, eggplant, mushrooms, jackfruit, tempeh, and tofu into some close-to-meat miracles. Not only does it sound difficult to prepare, it will not taste like the real thing. To actually stick to vegan , plant-based products after having real meat can be a challenge since flavor and texture is what we crave.
That’s where plant-based food comes in. Try one of the plant-based meat alternatives that are now readily available in most supermarkets. There are numerous of them.
We have prepared a list of plant-based food brands for you that are actually good.
