Erin,

I just heard of a cookbook titled Vegan for Carnivores. I haven't checked to
see if it can be found in an accessible format, but the chef who wrote it
was not always a vegan chef, so he tries to recreate meat-based foods
turning them into plant-based foods. From what I understand, the recipes are
actually really yummy. So if you're looking for non-meat-based foods
including products devoid of soy, try looking into things like this.

And vegan foods usually are higher in protein but much lower in calories and
fat. The chef of the cookbook mentioned above, made a plant-based fried
chicken using rice paper for the skin and a plant-based product for the meat
and then, after using several seasonings, fried it like you would with fried
chicken, but despite the frying process, it had a fraction of the fat and
calories than actual fried chicken. All those who tried it thought it tasted
great.

Sincerely,
Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter

That sounds extra yummy!!

When I was pregnant I tried an austrage burger at Fuddruckers and it was
nasty in my opinion.  Maybe it wasn't cooked right but it tasted very gamy
and definitely could have used more seasoning of some kind.

I love trying all types of food and bare jerky was some of the best jerky
I've ever eaten.  Venison is also wonderful if cooked right.  Bison burgers
are also something worth writing home about.

I'd love to find a tasty veggie burger that doesn't have soy in it so if
anyone has suggestions I'd love to hear them. Thanks!

Erin
