An idea is to go vegan!  A vegan is a person who doesn’t eat meat.  So yes, they are vegetarians but it goes a step further.  Vegans also do not eat any animal product such as milk, eggs and even honey.  They don’t/cant eat anything with animal products in it so many things have to be altered.
Some Perks Are:
•    Healthier: 0 cholesterol diet (Help prevent heart disease).
•    Keeps you regular!
•    Feel healthier, no bloating after meals.
•    Some people have lost weight after switching.

    Many foods have to be altered, such as mashed potatoes.  For a vegan the chef has to substitute milk for soymilk, butter for soy butter and soy yogurt as an egg substitute.  It will have a slightly different taste however be much healthier.
1 tablespoon of soy yogurt = 1 egg.
    You may want to try switching some food and see if you kids notice or even like it better.  Happy Eating!
