If you have been thinking about going vegan but are worried that you won't be able to enjoy some of the foods you love anymore, think again!
In today's society, vegan alternatives are in much higher demand than they used to be because so many more people are making the switch with their diet. I believe this fact has made vegan alternatives much easier to find (there's a whole section filled with these products in most grocery stores), and it has made them a lot tastier and higher in variety.
There are multiple different kinds of milk, yogurts, and even cheeses that are all plant or nut-based now, and I was curious about a lot of the products companies are coming out with. I tried seven different vegan products and actually really liked all of them!
Here are some vegan alternatives to food that are super yummy and make you forget you're not eating the 'real' thing.
1. Trader Joe's Cashew Yogurt
I tried the vanilla bean cashew yogurt, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good this yogurt tasted. I was also very pleasantly surprised by the fact that this yogurt offers THREE GRAMS of protein! As a vegetarian or vegan, it can be really hard to make sure you're getting enough protein in your daily diet, so having three grams in a single yogurt, and having the yogurt taste delicious, was very exciting for me.
2. Amy's Black Bean Burrito
If you're a burrito lover and don't want to give that up when going vegan, pick up one of these burritos next time you're at the store, and you will not be disappointed! This burrito was so easy to make and tasted just like something I would've ordered at a restaurant!
3. Oatly Oat Milk Barista Edition
For any of you coffee lovers out there, this Oatly Oat Milk Barista Edition is the best coffee creamer I have ever had. It is creamy and delicious and tastes just like regular coffee creamer! I have only had this brand of oat milk, but I'm sure all the oat milk out there is just as delicious.
4. Trader Joe's ChickenLESS Tenders
These chicken-less tenders have 11 grams (!!!) of protein per serving, and they're amazing. What more could a protein hungry vegetarian/vegan ask for?!
5. Annie's Vegan Mac
The hardest thing for most people to give up when going vegan is any type of cheese. Annie's Vegan Mac is the perfect way for vegans to get their dose of cheese, while still eating everything plant-based!
6. Halo Top Dairy Free Ice Cream
I scream, you scream, even vegans scream for ice cream! Halo Top is known for their amazing, healthy and low calorie ice cream recipes, and they came out with a dairy free line to put them even closer to the top brand of ice cream ever.
7. Daiya Fire-Roasted Vegetable Vegan Pizza
The one food I could not ever live without is pizza, hands down. So, when I found this pizza by Daiya I knew I had to try it, and I loved it. If you're a big pizza person, this is a must-try when becoming vegan.
The main thing that I liked about all of these products was that they aren't good because they're vegan, all of these products are good because they just simply taste good. I enjoyed the taste of all of these foods, and also took comfort in knowing that all of the products were plant/nut/oat-based and contained no animal products.
These products make the thought of going vegan a lot less daunting and can make the transition much smoother. I highly recommend all of these products to anyone who is thinking about going vegan or anyone who just wants to try some new yummy foods!
