I dabble but am not good at committing. Also, I did like Vegan Before 6, but I avoid soy since I'm a female of a certain age. Appetite for Reduction by Moskowitz and Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen by Klein are going to be my go to's this year. I have a lot of the Thug Kitchen cookbooks and will start incorporating them as well. Can't wait to hear how well it goes for you! 2/2
