    2. butter can be replaced with canola oil

    3. daiya cheese is more or less a good replacer for cheese

  6. Nutrients

    1. Eat lots of peanut butter or legumes for extra protein (I eat lots of protein bars and meat replacers)

    2. Drink almond milk or take a multivitamin to make sure you’re eating lots of b12

Note – Most of the items I list are available at sprouts and to some extent at winco

Second note  – PETA Is annoying, but their resources are good
