Meat Free Mondays


Meat Free Mondays is a UK-based campaign to encourage people to go meat free once a week to help reduce their impact on climate change (did you know 18% of Greenhouse gas is caused by livestock production and consumption). It's biggest supporters are Paul and Stella McCartney who have started a Support Meat Free Monday website (is there anything she doesn't do!). I just love this idea...so simple and they make it so easy with lots of wonderful recipes (many from Linda McCartney herself)...as some of you know I have made my attempts at complete vegetarianism but have found being a flexitarian (don't you love this term!), a much better option. So, while I eat a 80% plant-based diet, I like the flexibility of the occasional meat (especially when at a dinner party). So, on the eve of Vegetarianism month, why not take the challenge and go Meat Free on Mondays with me? I thought I would try and post a new recipe every Monday to help us along...let me know if you have any favourites...xxx
