That's a tough one, but I was still living home with my parents when I turned vegan and we always managed to get everyone happy at the table. We often cooked things that were easy to separate, like meat, potatoes, veggies and sauce - instead of the meat and mostly dairy-based sauces I then made my own stuff. This way we could enjoy and share a meal but I could still stick to my morals.

More and more, my family got curious about all the delicious things on my plate and incorporated more healthy stuff into their meals. They all were pretty understanding and respected my decision. I am sure your family will learn to do the same and when you explain your position in a non-judgmental way, they will respect your new way and your strength behind it. 💚
