Welcome Cooky Vegans
Introduction
Hi to you all, on this link I am going to give you some recipes to cook that are easy.
Well what is a vegan? Some vegans are different to others but generally a vegan eats fruit, vegetables, beans, seeds and nuts. Some vegans will have some dairy products while others do not have any. Vegans do not eat meat or fish.
Being a vegan can be healthy but you must always look carefully into your meals that you are getting all the essential proteins, nutrients, minerals and vitamins. Make sure, as you do not eat meat or fish as protein that you have plenty of beans, peas, pulses or nuts etc in your meals to make up for that lack of protein. You need to keep your muscles and body in good repair, and proteins help to do this. Do not live on snack food and chips as doing something healthy by becoming a vegan will make you very un - healthy
