Meat Free Monday's

Sir Paul McCartney’s idea to promote one day a week that is meat-free to help mitigate the effects of climate change is a truly good one. It’s a simple idea and one that we can all put into practice. It doesn’t mean that we are turning veggie. What I hope it will do is to show how completely delicious and yummy vegetables and salads are. That they are worthy of centre stage on our plates and not just a supporting role as a ‘bit on the side’. Once their flavours and textures are explored they can become the inspiration for our cooking, and proteins will be in smaller portions, which will help to slow climate change by cutting the demand for oil and oil derivatives.
Supporting local growers and growing some of our own food too will also help Big Time. This is so achievable - and will be so deliciously satisfying too!
