I'm debating on taking this challenge for the month of March. The only things I can see myself possibly struggling with on this challenge are cheese (I'm from WI. I love cheese) although I don't it it very often even now because it makes me very congested. Also, eggs. I don't eat yolks, but I do like a good egg white scramble now and then.<br><br>
Advice? Encouragement? Recipes? Anything?<br><br>

P.S. I'm also on a tight budget, in case that contributes.

If you have an Asian market nearby, get some agar powder or flakes and make some cashew cheese (it melts).<br><br>
If you have an Indian market nearby, get some black salt and add that to your tofu scramble. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/smiley.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title=""><br><br>
P.S. While some vegans do not like the taste of animal products, our reasons for becoming vegan (assuming a true vegan in lifestyle) are ethical, so we are right here with you in liking the taste of some animal products, but we choose not to eat them anyway. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/smiley.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="">

I was a cheese addict too, but the vegan cheeses that are in stores now are helping me a lot. I like Daiya for pizza and casseroles, and Rice Vegan slices for sandwiches. I also like the taste of Teese. I want to try it on a pizza soon. Wayfare's Mexi Cheddar Dip is great with chips. I haven't tried making my own vegan mac and cheese yet, but I like the Amy's one with Daiya.<br><br>
There is a chapter in the book called "There is life after cheese." Check it out. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/wink3.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="">
