I am a (semi) Vegan with an occasional organic milk/egg in a dessert which makes me a Vegetarian. I do cook animal products for my family but try to buy the best products that are free of chemicals. I'm a real stickler when it comes to cooking healthy. Vegan and (organic) Vegetarian dishes are my ultimate dishes to create. My family is a meat eating group so I am always on the look out for easy slow cooking dishes which makes for little to no handling of the animal meat. "Mystery Dishes" ... Trying new dishes that are way off our normal list of likes. I'll personally pass on all the animal meat though. Learning as I go, getting it right at least half of the time, trying again till it's right, hated or loved. That makes for a lot of "triumphs" let me tell ya! Humilitate myself on purpose? No thanks. LOL
