Oat Silk. Surprisingly OK. A splash or two doesn’t ruin a cup of coffee and it mixes and cooks with oatmeal better than cows milk IMO.
Love this stuff. Peanut butter doesn’t need sugar added, actually tastes better without it. Off putting oil rises to the top but just stir that shit back in before you take a scoop.
This stuff is fucking disgusting. Maybe it’s an acquired taste but I’d rather just do without.
Morning Star crumbles. Jury still out on this one. I think I might need to sauté it longer than the directions say? Idk
This stuff is great! Prepare it with the recommended skillet directions and you’ve got some badass crispy facon in 6 minutes.
This stuff is my new favorite thing. I’d trade this for sour cream if I was still eating like shit everyday. It’s so good that it wouldn’t surprise me if they get in trouble for lying about what’s in it.
Doggo tax. My bitch Bailey right before adoption. Y’all have healthy shit that tastes good?? Edit: This stuff isn’t all I eat guys. Of course tons of fruit and veggies is part of my new diet as well. You guys are like a fucking broken record with that shit.
twoamartist
Shop the outer perimeter of the supermarket. Everything you need to eat healthy is there. Not in the frozen section or out of a box.
DocHarriers
#2 I will never forget seeing my father in law on his knees using a fork held in a drill to re-mix the Costco size separated peanut butter.
Ukkosenjumala
Oat milk is da shizzle. Tastes better in coffee too than cow milk imo.
spacestationnumberfive
Who knew oats had such sweet, sweet titties.
WaterWaiter
Be super careful with "no sugar added". Recently cut processed sugar and they'll SAY no sugar added but then have it in the ingredients c>

Oh and look up recipes for chia seed pudding. I love that with berries and a banana in it. It's a very tasty treat.

@op there's an Imgurian cookbook discord if you'd like to join us! Lots of great advice you can get there. https://discord.gg/QsskWWv
DoomFather
Don’t know if anyone suggested storing your PB upside down. Gets rid of the oil stirring.
ughwhyjustwhy
You are on the right track. Kudos. I cut out most processed foods, dairy, and meat. Lost 60 lbs never felt fucking better. Do daily walks1/2
ughwhyjustwhy
But please eat mostly fruits, veggies, nuts, beans, Fish here and there. Get Chobani Oatmilk. Non gmo and no pesticides on the oats. PROUD!
kruulik
Start eating real veggies and not “replacement” things. Try cooking with 5 raw ingredients or less per meal.
AlexanderReave
5 or less? Zero is less than 5. That can't help all that much
kruulik
You do have to eat though… just don’t eat processed food. Make your own meals from simple raw ingredients.
ThoseWeidmanns
Dairy free, gluten free, low FODMAP?
ditetraconta
Thank science I’m not the only person who had to do FODMAP. Damn fructans in wheat don’t mix well with my gut.
ThoseWeidmanns
Look to Asian cuisine for recipe ideas, they’re easier to modify when many dishes are dairy/gluten free to start with.
jollyjack
You wanna eat healthy: ditch the processed foods (which, excluding doggo, is EVERYTHING you posted) and cook from scratch.
ThisGuyFawkes
Cashew milk is also good. You’re right, the dairy free cheese is disgusting. Highly recommend homemade black been burritos.
ThoseWeidmanns
If they’re doing low FODMAP, beans of all kinds are a huge no unfortunately
spidermanisprettyneat
hm, kale? toss it in a fruity smoothie and you can barely taste it. or, make kale chips! you could also do a salad if that’s more your thing
Steelwind
I'm confused is #3 made from shredded cutting boards? Also 100% agree on the peanut butter. No need for adds to that, just peanuts.
crazyfishlady
Shredded cutting boards would probably taste better.
tlm26071
Its made from coconut. Cutting boards is considered "fancier" or better than the regular shreds.
birencall
Store your natural peanut butter jar upside down, keeps the oil moving.
Miller16of16
I pour it off when first open and just deal with it being thicker than the usual.
doyoucopy
Just stir it in with a hand mixer!
Miller16of16
No way! "You do it once, you'll have to do it every time" and I prefer to get my extra fats in form of Amish butter...
Potts
Morningstar black bean burgers are the best. Try those.
geoffreyfourmyle
But be careful of the sodium. Those things are loaded with salt.
Ambitiousnobody
Roasting (drizzle w/olive oil + whatever spices you like and cook ~400°F for 25ish minutes) is my favorite way to cook vegetables.Sweet(1/2)
Ambitiousnobody
(2/2) Potatoes, carrots, zucchini, and different typees of squash are all good cooked that way!
damnskippy5016
Harvest snaps!! Best damn snack ever.
ScorneontheCob
If you need more leafy greens try chucking some spinach in when you make pasta sauce or stew or casserole. It wilts down to almost nothing
ScorneontheCob
and if you can be bothered to chop it you won’t even notice it’s there. Some places also sell it frozen in pre-chopped pellets
IAmTheFarmer
Spinach is gross. Baby greens or turnip greens are my favorite
ScorneontheCob
I used to think spinach was gross, but I like it now. I even put it in my burritos instead of lettuce.
NicolasKevinMac
All the folks saying to avoid processed foods and cook fresh are not wrong. But it's okay to ease into things, and slowly break the (1/2)
NicolasKevinMac
connection in your mind that you need meat and cheese to feel satisfied. One step at a time is fine, as long as you make steady progress.
stonecoldpuma
I agree. Sometimes people who aren't used to eating healthy foods, need to be eased into that direction. It looks like they're eliminating..
stonecoldpuma
Dairy and probably red meat. This will probably be a process for this person.
andwings2go
Yes. It’s about reducing inflammation that causes me constant pain. No dairy, no red meat.
stonecoldpuma
I figured ☺️ try Gardein products. I haven't tried any of their soups, but most of their frozen products are pretty good.
doggetofftheqcekmty
Make the healthy stuff easier to eat. Buy grapes and immediately de-stem them. Keep berries, baby carrots, etc. in easy access in the fridge
whatsisname
TBF eating grapes is basically like eating skittles, they are full of sugar.
doggetofftheqcekmty
Who told you that? A minute on Google proved that's total BS.
geoffreyfourmyle
Wash and dry the grapes, then put them in little sandwich baggies, then freeze them overnight. Frozen seedless grapes are like candy. If
geoffreyfourmyle
you don't dry them though, you get a bunch of frozen droplets stuck to them, which is meh.
doombabies
I once wrote a review of a daiya frozen pizza so scathing they gave me a shit ton of coupons for free shit. Threw them directly in the trash
doggetofftheqcekmty
Well now I want to read the review!
tlm26071
I find daiya cheese pizza to be one of the better alternatives to other vegan pizzas. Then again, ive never had regular pizza. And 1/2
tlm26071
There arent a lot of vegan pizza options where im at. I like to add goat cheese to them.
IlluminaBlade
Why are you eating fake pizza and putting real cheese on it?
tlm26071
Allergic to cows milk but not goats milk.
redditmcredditface
check the packaging on oatmilk, its very likely filled with sugar.
twintigpuppies
Unsweetened soy/oat/almond/cashew/whatever are usually right beside the sweetened ones
spacestationnumberfive
Sweet oat titties.
Assetspelledbackwards
The crumbles are nasty imo. Try morningstar farm grillers original. You can crumble them up yourself and it's so much better!!
indiehedgehog
I like the gardein crumbles in pasta sauce
Moonmoon409
Yeah, I prefer the beyond version or even Boca over the mostar crumbles! Solid sub for anyplace you'd use ground turkey or beef.
Assetspelledbackwards
Quorn products are really good too. Been a vegetarian for 30 years. DM me if you have any questions. :)
HorriblyPositive
Was about to say, I won't touch Morning Star crumbles, but Qourn are solid. Especially with taco sauce.
pdbogen
Soyrizo is great! And I love oatmilk.
erischilde
I still like my milk for certain things, but with Oats it's damn Skippy nutmilks (can't get over the name) are tasty af.
CargoManshark
Came here to say that. Soyrizo is better than some chorizos I've had.
Foxhack
The seasoning makes the chorizo, not the meat. Sadly most American chorizo brands I've tried are... badly seasoned. :(
LuminoZero
I usually prefer almond, but yeah, it's better than I thought.
bdogamus
+1 for soyrizo. Which isn’t Spanish for “I am rizo” btw.
YouMayFindThisMildlyInteresting
Same way soy milk is just regular milk introducing itself.
bdogamus
andwings2go
Frieda’s? It doesn’t look like the word is trademarked.
satonist
No Evil has some great fauxrizo and a bunch of other awesome meat alternatives
pdbogen
I haven't had that specific one, I just grab whatever the store has. Trader Joe's has a good one, I know. But Safeway or w/e is good too.
davethebiker
We do plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Similar flavor and texture. Mixed into stuff you can't tell.
Jonnythetrout
We do that too and make our own yogurt at home. It's really easy too! Just need a gallon of milk, 3 cups of powdered milk, and 1 cup of(1/2)
Jonnythetrout
starter yogurt (you can use leftover of what you just made). It does have to sit in your oven (or other warm place) for 24 hours, though.2/2
NaughtButOne
Was looking for this. I switched out sour cream for greek yogurt ... 6 years ago? Haven't found a recipe yet that it can't be swapped for.
welcometothedarkside
Leave it on the counter overnight and Greek yogurt will get more sour and tastes like sourcream.
kikisdeliveryservice
Me too!
Fighttheshower
Same, and low fat if you wanna be a bit healthier ?
McSkeevely
Low fat yogurt isnt necessarily healthier, a lot of the time they just replace the fat with sugar
Fighttheshower
Exactly - I meant only unflavoured ones like greek yoghurt or skyr (Icelandic).
welcometothedarkside
If you are eating the flavored ones. Unflavored ones are healthy.
kakari
Also try different brands, some start tangier than others.
tripleAatyourservice
In terms of vegan cheese - check out Violife. Daiya brand is straight up plastic and it’s awful
SteveO
i like daiya, use it for quesadillas, tacos, wraps, nachos, fake eggs, pizza and whatnot
AnythingMuchShorter
The cheese flavor tastes like cheeto powder rather than real cheese
DancingOnTheEl
I HATE how daiya the default for all the pizza places to go vegan. It's just awful, the smell alone makes me gag. Cashew-based all the way.
proudsnax
Kite hill cream cheese is the shiz
glitterdemon
Miyoko’s Creamery is actually good
indiehedgehog
The miyokos mozzarella on pizza is so yummy when cooked right! Mmmmm
salviecakes
Miyoko’s Creamery is actually yummy!
PotatoDreams4eva
Hey j just wanted to say I'm a junk food vegan and in my opinion violife is the absolute worst cheese brand! Sheese is the best x
flyingnetherlander
I second this motion.
crazyfishlady
I'm being forcibly moved away from dairy, and I can only tolerate the Daiya cheese with chili. If I can taste it, it's awful.
SpookyPillows
Also even better, if you don't have nut allergies, cashew and almond cheeses are amazing. I prefer them to dairy cheese.
ConflictsOfInterestAreInteresting
I second this. And I eat normal cheese. I use this when I'm cooking for my vegan friend and this is actually really solid
orngenblak
It melts into vegan burritos and the like okay. By itself unmelted: pretty bad.
johnnieborgie
Daiya sounds like “daya” a word in Tagalog which roughly translates to cheat/hoodwink.
NeverDownvoteMelBrooks
xHeroOfTimexx
Yeah daiya is awful, violife is def the best I’ve tried
andwings2go
Plastic is spot on.
ahzelton
Vevan shreds are really good. I think Good Planet or Good Life is another yummy brand. Daiya hasn't been good for me
CatatonicCowMoo
I really liked Chao slices
HoneyBunchesOfOatMilk
Yes! The original and the garden herb are delicious. I eat the slices plain, hard to find a good fake cheese to eat plain
MmmmmPapayas
I switched to goat cheese instead of cow cheese and have loved it. No more tummy troubles. But still not plant based.
MagpieChristine
There's some kinds of cow's milk that you can probably digest too. I can now get "a2" brand for less than goat's milk, and can digest it too
TheLookAndFeelMUSIC
Boil potato, carrots and onions until soft. Blend with nutritional yeast, garlic and onion powder, salt and chili. Better than real 1/2
TheLookAndFeelMUSIC
cheese sauce and I'm not even vegan. Healthy too, no fat or sugar. Gotta blend it super smooth though. 2/2
combatwombat0
How much of everything?
TheLookAndFeelMUSIC
Plenty of recipes on the net. Experiment a bit and find out the best ratio for you.
McSkeevely
Morning star chickie nugs!! I'm a carnivore and i still would never turn down a plate of those
andwings2go
That’s the kinda advice I’m looking for. Do you dip them in anything?
McSkeevely
When you're on the go or craving fast food (if you're a fatass like me), burger kings impossible whopper is really good, and the whopper is
McSkeevely
my favorite fast food burger. The impossible version won't quite win a blind taste test, but if I'll still occasionally order it instead
McSkeevely
I like mixing ketchup, mustard, and either tapatio or sriracha. Bbq sauce is also good
CatatonicCowMoo
Quorn meatless filets (fake chicken) are really good! Not the cheese ones, just regular. I make chicken sandwiches with them. Delish!
jaggcomputing5
No offence, but everything you have presented is processed. Buy fresh stuff and cook for yourself, you will be Much better off.
WGG25
yeah, buy stuff and process it yourself! /s
oldbaldjewishman
Ya none of this is real food
derJake
Srsly, bacon, peanut butter, cheese and sour cream?
oldbaldjewishman
Not bacon, bs plant bacon lolll
indiehedgehog
Maybe the issue was cholesterol, in which case this would help
PopeMegaForce
I stopped taking it seriously when he showed Skippy. Seriously, go with actual peanut butter and not peanut butter spread.
looseasamoose
If dairy is the problem then the dairy alts are good. Thoughts on bacon substitute vs high levels of nitrates in cured pork?
jaggcomputing5
Just don't eat bacon. I dropped butter, coffee, alcohol, most fats because I couldn't handle them after glandular fever. 1/2
jaggcomputing5
You get used to not having stuff. I am back in coffee after 10 yrs, but not the rest.
looseasamoose
Was just curious as to how plant based but processed foods stack up, I don't typically eat bacon often myself.
Corrodias
For those of us who aren't cooks and don't want to spend hours every day cooking, that's just not going to fly.
carpetdope
I'd suggest investing the time in practicing making good things quickly. In no time at all it shouldn't take hours.
carpetdope
This can also include dealing with the mess while you prepare. It's a skill, to be sure.
TwoFlower68
Meal prep is your friend. It takes just as long to cook four times as much
Homosexualsaregay
Cooking a meal takes about 20-30 mins. You should only be spending hours if you're cooking up a feast
Corrodias
There's more that goes into it besides putting the prepared ingredients into a hot pan, though even that takes quite a while if you're not »
Corrodias
used to it. Besides that, there are shopping, learning how to prepare a dish, washing, and preparing the ingredients. Granted, a fried egg »
Corrodias
doesn't take much effort, but let's assume there's want for something a little fancier than that.
MoonlightStroke
Now now hold on. I cook all the time and I average an hour full process with dishes and cleaning. Sometimes you gotta pick your battles.
Corrodias
Also... I assume peanut butter and meat and milk substitutes weren't included in that, but still, how do you expect OP to make bacon?
GreySeasAbound
Of course peanut butter is processed. One can eat actual peanuts. As for plant based dairy alternatives they are of course also processed
GreySeasAbound
food and one can just eat, yknow, plants. This is NOT to say it can't be fine to eat those foods. Just they aren't particularly "healthy".
Noksus
If you need to fix up your diet, bacon is not part of that diet.
NickKater
Super easy from carrots eg. but also: bacon isn‘t part of what you would call a „good diet“ ?
TwoFlower68
It has nitrates and all of the PUFAs, so yeah.. just eat real meat. Pastured beef ftw
RuffleMyFluffles
Imo alternatives aren't always healthier. Eat more veggies instead.
OtterGoodTimes3000
Absolutely! Lots of Vegan alternatives are actually very high in sodium for examples. Fat-free = high sugar often too
HandoB4Javert
SwarthyBastard
I was gonna say - I eat fake meat because I'm vegetarian, but I don't consider it to be health food. Much better to focus on eating 1/2
SwarthyBastard
unprocessed stuff, though this stuff is fine, too.
Eleshar24
Good point - I read that peanut butter is no more healthy than regular butter, just different type of fat. What IS healthy though, 1/2
Eleshar24
is using BOTH regular and peanut butter interchangeably, this way you keep good doses of either fat type. 2/2
sawasdeekap
I agree. I’m guessing healthier, but not healthy.
TurnThisShpAround
ShittyMcFartPoop
Why did the doc recommend this and what exactly? @op
ProfessorPritt
Also something like an avocado or an egg are healthy in moderation. I suggest focusing on one food type at a time such as grains or veggies
Eleshar24
AFAIK you should not really focus on one type of food, but rather strive for rich and balanced diet.
PlasmaSquirrel
I wake up every morning at sunrise to milk the teet of my oats

Talligan
Lmao yeah, came to say that. Make your own burgers with lean beef, salad on the side. Lentil soup. Chickpea curry. Sub out butter for evoo
Talligan
Who downvotes food suggestions?
xHeroOfTimexx
Unless @OP’s problem is cholesterol then the vegan options are going to be helpful
Talligan
I'm not sure I understand your point. Mine was that there are plenty of great tasting, cheap food options
xHeroOfTimexx
Lean beef will still have cholesterol, so if they have a problem with cholesterol vegan is a good option
Talligan
Dietary cholesterol doesn't really impact blood cholesterol iirc
Corrodias
What do you think half of these are made of?
RuffleMyFluffles
But a ton of other things are added to make it closer to meat. Burger alternatives for example are higher in calories and fat.
Sumpte
Really depends on the burger. Most are lower in fat (especially saturated), but usually slightly lower protein and higher carbs.
Gremlynn4023
looks like a lot of legumes (closer to bean than veggie) and grain.
GreySeasAbound
Also as processed products they may have lost some of the fibers or vitamins which makes eating the actual plant healthier.
andwings2go
Well yea. I’m eating as much veggies as I can handle. These products are about still trying to enjoy food
Redisia
I learned how to cook with veggies tastes better at this point thene anything i used to cook :D
Femail76
If youre doing anything calorie-wise watch out with peanut butters

Sliced pumpkin (no need to peel) tossed in a bit of oil and with your fav spices (mix it up). Roast in oven and add some feta/fresh basil

Wat (Ethiopian), egusi soup (central African), shakshuka (North African), namul (Korean), horta (Greek), phkali (Georgian), are great to try

I have a friend that brags about not eating sugar, then talks about all the juice they drink. Sometimes things that sound healthier aren't.

Experiment with different preparations and seasonings for your veggies. Hopefully you’ll get to enjoying them just as much.
AtypicalMammal
But these products don't seem like they necessarily have fewer calories and such. They just seem like vegan stuff.

Let me add though, if you like it, eat it. Moderation is my key
thegreatwhiteblackartblackestmaster
As a vegan, Daiya tastes like fucking shit If you really need to scratch your cheese itch go with Miyoko's. Also just avoid "cheddar" shreds
thegreatwhiteblackartblackestmaster
I have yet to find any vegan cheddar shreds worth buying after years of searching. Follow Your Heart = crap. Violife = meh.
dumptrucky
Grill vegetables and red meat/ fish. Tastes awesome every time.
sweetnaivety
grass-fed beef/lamb, raw grass-fed dairy, wild-caught fish, fresh organic fruits are all amazing foods that are healthier for you.
sweetnaivety
all that processed vegan junk isn't going to do anything for you, stick to whole unprocessed foods and ditch the grains.

MaeylaRush
Long time vegetarian here. My best tip for sticking to the healthy diet is to make sure you’re getting more complete protein chains. >>
MaeylaRush
>> such as wheat + nuts. Or rice + lentils. Having more complete protein in your diet can really help. :)
iidosee
seriously important when cutting out meat protein if you go the veggie route!
Fighttheshower
My absolute favourite veggie cook book is “River cottage - veg every day”. It really helped me get creative with basic ingredients.
GreySeasAbound
In my experience you will grow to enjoy the veggies and fruits. But you have to learn where to buy good ones, how to cook them, use spices..
GreySeasAbound
...and ultimately sticking with processed foods (even "healthier alternatives") might make the cravings for that sort of food last longer.
GreySeasAbound
I used to have a big sweet tooth and had to cut out candy and sugary treats entirely to learn to enjoy fruit. (not forever but for a while)
bububub2
Look out for salt, that's the real killer. As for cheese- personally I find it better to just go without, I've never had a good fake cheese
THUMPSDV8S
Modern Times Brewery does an all vegan menu. Not sure where they get it, but their coconut cheese is the best tasting approximation ever.
bububub2
I'll have to give it a try!
kyorsmuckers
Same been vegan for like 12 years I rarely use any substitutes.
bububub2
Some substitutes can help hit the spot I've found, but yeah, most of the time you gotta just change the diet completely.
toewsy
I like to bake skinned beats whole, wrapped in tin foil. Bake till soft, slice into a bowl and salt that shit. Simple and tasty

If you roast them in individual tin foil packets with the skin on and a little bit of water, the skin wipes off with a papertowel. No peel.

Goat cheese sprinkled on those beets!
pigsearsandtwirlytails
I pickle beets, they're great as a snack or in salads. I use the leftover juice to then pickle eggs. Again good on their own or in a salad

Pickled beets are amazing. They are a staple at my grandma's house.

I’m also supposed to be cutting my sodium intake as much as possible. I like beets though and will give a whirl. Thanks
theriogrande
Add a bunch of peeled garlic into the tin boil instead of salt :) delish
missingdodo
A sprig of rosemary and a bit of garlic help with the less salt rule.
gregariouslouganis
Mrs dash makes low or no sodium mixes of seasonings that are good. Those are my favorite for veggie seasons of like steamed stuff.
Justtakealookatthis
Try it with a mix of 2 dl water 1 teaspoon vinegar 1 coffee spoon of sugar and a pinch of salt. Best thing on theworld!
tlm26071
Im not the biggest fan of daiya cheese either. I perfer follow your heart. Sodium is hiding EVERYWHERR! I am also low sodium and dairy free.

I think it sounds good with or without the salt. Definitely still worth a try.

For a lot of people, and I mean a LOT of people, "make your own stuff" is just not an option. That's a fucktonne of fucking work.
Mavgurian
Not everything is, and much of it is mostly in the beginning while you learn how to do it.

Cooking anything from scratch is a time investment, more so when replacing something easy with something with more steps involved
jrntn
It is the height of arrogance to tell people to "just" make everything themselves, as if everyone has the same time and energy available
jrntn
It's great that it works for you. It's assholery of the highest order to condescendingly assume it must for everyone else
Mavgurian
It is condescending to assume honest attempts of encouragement must be assholish. But you do you.
