It’s my first day participating in this month-long journey. I anticipated to encounter a myriad of difficulties yet the contrary turned out to be the case. It’s been rather simple following an all-vegetarian diet yet to the extent that I am scared of accidentally consuming something non-vegetarian as due to following this diet being as easy as it seems to be. I think that if vegetarianism turns out to be an ease to follow I might make a habit out of it and prolong my journey. Though it’s only been day one and my opinion might change at any given moment.
I woke up at around 8:00 AM, half awake and slightly startled knowing that my vegetarian diet had begon. I wasn’t hungry around that time so I decided to skip breakfast and go and spend some time on my computer.
Fast forward to lunch, I requested my dad to cook me something vegetarian, and so he did, after 30 minutes or so he called me downstairs and I was met with a bowl of spaghetti with mushrooms, eggs and onion. At first glance it seemed that it was going to turn into an okay meal but after tasting it I was pleasantly suprised by it’s great savour. It tasted so good in fact that I am considering publishing this recipe on sunday.
For dinner I was greeted with a vegetarian twist on a popular Portuguese dish which normally contains shrimp, in this dish eggs and mushrooms were the substitutes for the shrimp. The dish was okay, it wasn’t anything great or comparable to what I’d eaten for lunch but it wasn’t bad to any degree.
For now I’m tired and heading off to bed, tomorrow a second day of vegetarianism awaits!
