1.Try going vegan one day a week

Meatless Mondays have become a popular concept for a reason. People are a lot less likely to eat out on a Monday than say, a Thursday or Friday, and it's the first day of the working week, meaning you might have done a grocery shop over the weekend and have ingredients ready to cook something tasty. Starting with one day a week is an easy and excellent way to ease into the habit of eating less meat.

Meatless Monday’s became very popular because you are less likely to eat out on like a Thursday or Friday. Usually people shop over the weekends, so monday is a good day to make home made food. Starting with one day a week is a good way to pick up a habit.

2.One meal a time.
