[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with your analysis, OP.  I want mostly plant-based for the same reasons, though I'm vegetarian not vegan (ovo-lacto).  One difference I have with a PP is that I avoid a lot of "fake meat" or meat analogues because they're very highly processed.  Also, most contain autolyzed yeast extract (sometimes just called "natural flavoring" in ingredient lists) and as someone with migraines, it's to be avoided (common migraine trigger, chemically similar to MSG).  Here's what I've had to eat in the last few days:

Breakfast: steel cut oatmeal with sliced almonds and some melon
Snack: yogurt
Lunch: huge salad (spring mix, sliced radish, tomatoes, green onion, red onion, pumpkin seeds, Feta cheese, half cup of cooked quinoa mixed in, vinaigrette)
Snack: apple & 1 tb nut butter
Dinner: Turkish lentil soup (homemade, I do big batches of soup and freeze), toast

Breakfast: banana with PB
Snack: yogurt
Lunch: soup (base is sauteed celery, carrot, onion + box/can of chopped tomatoes + 2 cans of chickpeas and a cilantro bunch) + tofu strips (I cut tofu into big straws, coat with herbs, garlic salt & whole wheat bread crumbs, bake for 30 min)
Snack: pear
Dinner: Spinach omelette + roasted potatoes coated with quinoa, green onion & a little parm cheese[/quote]

PP, would please share the Turkish lentil soup recipe? I've visited Turkey and love the soup![/quote]
