You could probably use something else besides egg noodles.
I use egg noodles for fettucine alfredo (yeah I know, that's not vegan either) when I make it but
other pasta works just about as well.

I don't think that substitutions are the point. It's just good netiquette to post vegan recipes to
this group, unless you are looking for help in substituting. The OP's primary motivation in posting
these recipes seems to be to promote himself and his website, not to share vegan recipes (or he'd
actually take the time to make the substituitions himself).

I don't mean this to sound like "what are you doing *here* ?".
If you are not vegan, why are you reading this group?

I don't think using egg noodles once in while makes someone a on vegan-it is the spirit...My real
dressy shoes are leather-I wear them 4 or 5 times a year.. Michael

Yes, I agree with you. I was just making a suggestion on how it might be changed.

Yeah, I have a bunch of items like a leather coat that I bought long before I went vegan that I
refuse to just throw away. The cow is dead, the damage has been done, and I need to stay warm. I'm
not into making "statements" with my clothes anyway, which is probably unnaceptable to some of the
hard core dogmatists, but whaddyagunna do?
