Veganuary<\/a> is \u00a0upon us! For those that aren\u2019t sure what that means, there is a campaign each year to try going vegan for January. Vegan + January = Veganuary<\/a>. We thought it would be useful to share some tips for Veganuary, and how to get through it, as it isn\u2019t always easy, first time!<\/p>\n

What follows are some tips for Veganuary \u2013 this is how I went plant-based, and how my partner joined in on the journey, since prior to Veganuary both my partner and I were eating meat once or twice a day.<\/p>\n

Swap like for like<\/h4>\n

The simplest thing to do is to swap like for like<\/strong>. If you like to eat sausages, swap meat sausages for vegan sausages. My all-time favourites are Linda McCartney<\/a> rosemary sausages, but Beyond Meat<\/a> also do great substitutes, and in all honesty it\u2019s hard to find a bad vegan version these days! Here in Catalonia, there are many brands, in most supermarkets, like Heura Foods<\/a>, VioLife<\/a>, VeggiDeli and Kaukala<\/a>. In fact, if you’re in the neighbourhood, you can have a delicious Beyond Meat burger or the tasty Coca Primavera<\/a> right next to La Bruguera, at Bar l\u2019Escola in the square in front of the church in La Pera, or grab a craft beer at our neighbours Dos Kiwis Brewing<\/a>, and try their veggie burger<\/a> or their veggie open toastie<\/a> (both of which are available in vegan versions). And of course if you’ve asked for catering during your stay at La Bruguera<\/a>, you can be sure to be in safe hands, with Chef Roger’s veggie or vegan retreat menus.<\/p>\n

It’s not all beans, falafel and tofu<\/h4>\n

You don\u2019t have to opt for the bean\/falafel\/tofu version of your meaty favourite. Many vegans I know prefer to opt for these substitutes because the \u201cfake\u201d meats can be too realistic, but if you, like me, didn\u2019t give up beef burgers because you didn\u2019t enjoy the taste, you can opt for those meat-like substitutes. But of course, try all the foods! There are so many vegan options that are different takes on the meat classics I would definitely encourage you to branch out and try new things. Going vegan doesn\u2019t need to mean buying processed burger replacements, there is protein in so many plant-based foods.<\/p>\n
