Pesach continued

[lavendersparkle]

Previous years Pesach has always been my least favourite holiday. It's the food issue. I'm vegan and don't live in Jewland. Trying to have a kosher Pesach is that bit more of a struggle and I tend to fear that I'm going to starve. I've also always had the worst of both worlds because I didn't feel like I culd eat anything but also couldn't keep properly kosher for Pesach. This year has changed all of that. I have my own kitchen which I can clean and kosher and I have a fridge full of yummy vegan Pesachdik food. So far, as well as the seder food, I've had baked potatoes with salad and homous, oven chips and ratatouille with harissa (harissa on chip is nom nom nom) and for breakfast, a particularly tricky meal for Pesach and veganism, I've been eating charoset, baked apple and matzah.

I may be getting over my Pesach-phobia.

YAY!
Glad it has worked well for you: that food does all sound yummy!

(I must confess I had assumed* that because so much is cut out by being vegan, that passover would not be that tricky for you - thanks for showing i was wronger than a wrong thing :) ).

* until i thoguht about it on reading this entry

I know the feeling, I am Veggie and also do not live in Jew-land. But I eat kitniyot so its managable, really. I've been trying to eat fruit for breakfast, I figured it'd be an excuse to be healthy and keep kosher at the same time. The problem with matzah is that its not very filling, I don't know if you find that too...
