Hat tip to Atlanta's Vegan Examiner, Alyse, for pointing me to my latest iPhone application download, VeganXpress, in this post about vegan web sites and apps.

One of the most enjoyable aspects of owning an iPhone is discovering that, true to their marketing campaign, there really is an "app for that".

In addition to just downloading VeganXpress, I also have:

Locavore: Designed to help you find local farmer's markets, and t know what's in season in your region

Whole Foods Recipes: Which does have a special section of vegan recipes

Vegetarian recipes: Because, yeah, I needed one more cookbook I won't use nearly often enough!

CrueltyFree from Leaping Bunny AND BNB (Be nice to Bunnies): Both designed to help you look up personal care and beauty items and see if they're vegan and cruelty-free

I have the cruelty-free apps multiple times already, and I'm looking forward to turning to them all to make the vegan life a little easier!

Did I miss any?

Should I be worried about getting enough protein on a vegetarian/vegan diet and what non-meat products can I eat to get protein? Thanks

Of course I'm not a nutritionist or doctor, so I can tell you that generally getting enough protein is very easy on a veg*n diet, and that generally most people eat way more protein than is necessary.

I get my protein from:

Soy products, like: Tofu, Edamame, Soy milk, Soy yogurt

Seitan (a wheat gluten product)

Meat substitutes that are either soy or wheat gluten based

Beans, particularly black beans or cannelini beans, which are my favorites

Nuts, particularly cashews

Peanut Butter

I'd look up Jack Norris RD, who is a registered dietician who writes a lot about vegan nutrition online.
