Vegan high calorie breakfast

Tell him to research some recipes and make a grocery list, get what he needs and let him cook it.

I agree about smoothies.

My kid decided he wanted to go vegan for lent. We compromised on vegan until dinner time, and then normal dinner. He's in his adolescent growth spurt, and plays three sports. He eats like a horse.

So, besides a ton of avocados, what do vegans eat when they want a lot of calories.

Oh, and we're nut free due to allergies.


Horses are often vegans

One of my favorite things to eat period is breakfast potatoes, which are just potatoes, peppers, and onions roasted with spices. Very, very easy to make vegan.

Why are some of you so unsupportive of your kids?

Particularly when they are adopting a healthy choice. And besides, how hard is breakfast? Are you eating some greasy meat laden breakfast? Maybe you should consider adopting a couple of vegan meals beneficial to your family. I have been vegan for 20 years and almost everyday eat a big bowl of oatmeal (1 cup raw) with bananas, berries, flax seeds, and almond milk. I am a 6 foot tall man and am full until lunch.

I am confused how coming to ask for suggestions translates into not being supportive of him eating different things for breakfast.

As for what he usually eats, he has a smoothie with yogurt most days and either a baked good with eggs (French toast, baked oatmeal, muffin) or eggs pretty frequently.

I am guessing you are not in a growth spurt.

Vegan doesn't necessarily mean "healthy choices". Just as omnivore doesn't necessarily mean "unhealthy choices".

I would do overnight oats made with water, to which you add flax seed hemp seed or Chia seeds. You can also add dried cranberries raisins or currents. Scoop some out in the morning and heated up with a little rice milk or whatever other milk he might like, add some maple syrup and top with bananas and blueberries
