The Beginning

My journey to become a vegetarian all started two years ago. 


It originally began with my self-diagnoses that I had allergies (why would I go to the doctor when I could just Google my symptoms and be done with it?). I figured that the simple fix would be to take some sort of allergy medication. This, however, did not do the trick. So off to Google I went again. It is here that I discovered that many people have a mild irritation or allergy to dairy. So I made the decision to try to go a few weeks without dairy (even my beloved cheese). After just a few days I noticed a HUGE difference... Now I was on to something. 


The milk in our fridge was then replaced with delicious almond milk, and the cheese... well it was still there for emergencies only. 


I shared this discovery with my friend who had decided to go dairy and meat-free. After talking to her, I decided that maybe cutting meat out of my diet might be a good idea as well. 


This idea brought on skepticism from my spouse, as he knew (and shared) my love for bacon (not just cheese). So, out the meat went. 


Here I am two years later, living to tell about it. Cooking has become my passion, and I feel like I need to share it with others. 


Enjoy!!! xo
