I think it is a requirement...if you're veg or vegan, you've got to be a good cook. A friend of mine I stayed with in Scotland was a strict vegan, and with the exception of his tea (decaf tea w/ soy milk= not good), was an amazing cook. He just whipped these awesome meals up from stuff that you wouldn't think of combining...and he made the best Thai green curry I've ever eaten. I refused to eat mushrooms until he made them in a stir fry for me...delicious. Since coming back to the states, I've gotten much more adventurous with veggies, even exploring the treacherous world of asparagus (mmmm).

And if all else fails, use olive oil, I swear, it's the solution to every culinary problem.
