Dairy Substitutes

One of the first challenges of becoming dairy free was learning how to cut out milk. The next was to find ways of replacing it in our diet, both nutritionally and in terms of taste. 

Initially, all I was told was to try Oatley as a milk substitute. Here are some posts relating the things that I've learned since, that might be helpful to you if you find yourself in the same position as we were. Hopefully, it might make the task just a a little bit easier for you!
