I cook vegan meals based on my favorite foods from when I was not vegan. Also, my meals and ingredients fit my lifestyle and budget. One of the natural food stores in my area has a great salad bar, where I love to get my vegetable-and-protein fix after a long trail run. They have a vegan tuna salad (as in "tuna") that I put on top of my greens every time. It has a wonderful flavor and texture; I've been meaning to.
