Warning: My mom asked for my vegan chili recipe.

Ngl, that's a huge step for our family meals.

Calling it a "huge step" feels like a lot. She asked for a recipe, she didn't sign a pledge. It's just one dish, not a full lifestyle switch. People can like a single vegan meal without it being some major life event.

Was she weird about it at first? Mine was, but she totally warmed up after she tried a bowl.

Hold on, @the_kai, did she really change her mind that fast? Most folks I know would still be iffy after just one try. Guess some people are quicker to adapt than others.

Did she say why she wanted the recipe now, after possibly being unsure before? Like, did something specific in the chili win her over, or was it the overall meal? I'm curious if she's thinking of making it for others, which would be a bigger deal. These small asks can sometimes lead to more open talks about food choices.
