Meat is expensive so I want to branch out, what's a non-meat dish you like to make?

I made this and it was pretty damn tasty

Just had some chicken livers. Absolutely delicious. Also the whole packet cost as much as a packet of braised tofu, which I also love.

Taco soup.
Black and kidney beans, vegetables you like and taco seasoning. Simmer until beans are tender.
I have no idea why it tastes as good as it does

For veg dishes, Indians know what's up. Try aloo matar, it's pretty easy to make. Curried potatoes and peas with a tomato and onion base.

I don't know in what shit country you live but liver cost 0.8 the price of chicken breast, which is one of the cheapest muscle meat.
If we compare them nutrition wise the difference is abysmal
Beef Liver is also one of the most expansive offal. Tripe costs half the price of a beef muscle but has good amount of protein and B12

[Anonymous No.17676242]

>>17675247
If you have access to spleen and lungs, they should be cheaper. Unless their price is high because they are seen as a novelty

My gf is vegan so I cook plant-based food all the time. My advice: stay away from processed meat substitutes. You can work with tofu and tempeh, but "plant-based crumbles" and shit like that are disgusting and not worth it.

Koshary has unironically become my favorite food. Some other favorites:
Thai curry
Lima beans simmered with clove and served with jalapeno cornbread
Nachos topped with refried beans, salsa, and guacamole
Bell peppers stuffed with quinoa
Chicken-fried cauliflower and chicken-fried mushrooms
Basically anything with shredded chicken or pulled pork, substituted with jackfruit

Imagine substituting protein with something that contains none. Morons actually do this.

I bet your gf looks like a heroin addict.
Are you trying to her infertile?

I don't know how you make tortilla soup but there's plenty of protein in the black beans.
Sour grapes and low-effort shitposting aside, she actually was quite unhealthy before we started dating. She complained about being tired all the time for the 14th time so I sat her ass down and explained that she wasn't taking veganism seriously and she needed to start exercising and to get b- and d-vitamins, omega fatty acids, iron and zinc from somewhere. We grew close over shopping for supplements together and me cooking her a decent meal every once in a while instead of letting her subsist on cereal with almond milk and raw vegetables.

everytime I eat a vegan meal I'm still starving and feel like I haven't actually eaten

which is kind of fucked as I want to go full vegan (currently vegetarian, I eat mussels and cheese). I feel like I'd literally die of starvation if I didn't eat those.

Make soft cheese strain out whey, use left over whey as a protein substitute. Make soup using whey instead of water

Soups and gravy tastes thicker and creamier plus protein.

also fresh soft cheese to go with a meal.

Most vegan dishes are wholly lacking in protein and fats.
And more legumes, mushrooms, and fat. The chef videos of adding a giant splurge of olive oil is no joke - it really improves the flavour of the dish.

Chicken is still cheaper than beans at my supermarket. Everyone says beans are cheap but honestly they are surprisingly pricy, even when looking at multiple sources.

Per calorie cream is still one of the cheapest source of calories.

Pumpkin, nuts, garbanzo beans, eggs (which are still very cheap for the protein compared to normal meat), mushrooms, and peas are all high in protein and will leave you feeling full. Pumpkin pot pie is delicious, quiche is easy, stuffed mushrooms are better than meat some times, hummus is great warm or cool, and split pea soup is worth the effort. Also, eggplant parmigiana is arguably better than chicken parmigiana, in my opinion.
