As a carnivore, I decided to eat vegan for a week - and I really liked it.
- Vegan diets are a lifestyle choice that require careful researching and planning.
- I signed up for a vegan meal delivery service to up my vegetable intake.
- I'm a total carnivore, but I decided to eat vegan for a week - and I really liked it.
I'm what my travel doctor calls an "adventurous eater." As a frequent globetrotter, my culinary habits make her nervous. I get it. In my world, very few foods are off-limits.
In an effort to spring clean my eating habits and step up my vegetable intake, I decided to order Hungryroot, a vegan meal delivery service. For $69 per week, I'd get roughly six plant-based meals (two servings of each), such as lemon kale caesar salad, kale pesto sautéed greens, and creamy corn cauliflower risotto.
To be honest, I signed up because the dishes looked tasty and super easy to prepare. Nothing takes more than 15 minutes from start to finish. As a woman who lives alone, simplicity is key to healthy eating. If meal prep takes too long, I automatically default to take-out or going out to eat.
