My Non-Dairy Experiement.
So I decided to give up dairy for two weeks, just to see how it made me feel. And I think not eating dairy makes me feel good! In fact, my experiment has effortlessly carried on for an extra week! But I’m heading to the Big Easy in a few hours for a foodie weekend, and I’m not going to let dairy come in the way of me inhaling everything in sight. So I’ll make a few tweaks to my diet, but let’s be honest: no ice cream this summer? I think not.
Things I don’t miss:
Milk! I tried soy milk for the first time and actually prefer it. Even soy chai lattes are delish!
Hunks of cheese! I used to eat cheese and crackers for dinner pretty consistently. Now I’ve subbed hummus for cheese and am just as happy.
Butter! Before, I put butter on my muffins. Is that fat on fat? Regardless, I think I can make some cut backs here.
Things I truly miss:
Cheese on sandwiches and pasta: cheese does just make things taste better, and soy cheese isn’t cutting it yet.
Ice cream and Pinkberry: I don’t eat it that often, but who wants to live a life without it?
Hey all you vegans out there! Do you have any fun dairy-less products I should know about?? Fill me in!
