I’m not trying to be a downer here, but a lot of those recipes are just “use dairy-free milk/yogurt/butter” instead of the dairy version. There’s nothing inherently vegan about those recipes.
Imo, the non dairy versions are all worse than the dairy versions, and some (like vegan butter) are actually less healthy than the dairy version. Much like how beyond meat isn’t healthier (or cheaper) than beef (though is much better to the planet), dairy free alternatives just aren’t all that great.
Over the last year, I’ve worked my way to about 50% of my meals being vegetarian or vegan (mostly vegetarian), but I’m largely unimpressed by vegan/vegetarian recipes that rely on 1:1 replacements for non-vegan products.
Eating plant-based wont affect your quality of life as there are many great recipes for you to try out.
There’s scientific evidence that shows eating plant-based decrease your risk for chronic diseases. So its not just living 6-10 years longer.
