Yeah that's something I learned too. While meats can and do have their own distinct flavor, seasoning does most of the heavy lifting.

I haven't stopped eating meat entirely but just practicing seasoning use has opened my pantry up to do many more foods.

We were trying to figure out what to do with leftover dry lentils after using them for soup, so I looked up online and found people using them as mince replacement.

So we ended up whipping up some lentil bolognese. Taste & texture were the furthest thing away from beef. But damn it was tasty in its own right.
