Vegan And Vegetarian Grilling Recipes For A Plant-Based Cookout - HuffPost Posted: 27 May 2021 02:45 AM PDT  You've likely heard plenty of reasons you should cut back on your meat and dairy consumption: The production of animal products has numerous negative ramifications for your health, the environment and the welfare of animals. The good news is that even the smallest cutbacks can make a profoundly positive impact. The "Meatless Mondays" movement, for example, which encourages consumers to eliminate meat just one day a week, calculated that if everyone who knows about Meatless Mondays — 32% of Americans surveyed — followed it faithfully for 52 weeks, it would be the equivalent of taking 1.6 million cars off the road for a year. Similarly, a Natural Resources Defense Council report titled "Less Beef, Less Carbon" found that by reducing beef consumption by 19% from 2005 to 2014, Americans dramatically reduced carbon emissions equivalent to 39 million fewer cars. And now, 18-year-old Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg is making a plea that we all go vegan. Speaking to viewers in a recent short film titled "For Nature," Thunberg blames animal agriculture for our current health crisis, the climate crisis, biodiversity loss and animal suffering. Her message is basically this: If you care about the future of our planet, go vegan. There's just one problem. Grilling season is upon us, which to many people translates to burger and hot dog season. But if you're looking to cut back on those traditions, we've rounded up some of our favorite plant-based recipes to make at your next cookout. You won't miss a thing, we promise. (And you may even develop a craving for carrot hot dogs.)  |

5 vegetarian recipes to make the most of seasonal produce - STLtoday.com Posted: 14 May 2021 12:00 AM PDT  Spring and summer are an exciting time for cooking. No matter where you call "home," you likely have more access to fresh, local produce from farmers markets, CSAs and grocery stores as days grow longer and temperatures rise (if you're not sure what's in season in your area, this map will help). Whether you've found yourself with a bounty of mushrooms or microgreens, tomatoes or herbs, we have a few vegetarian dishes that will help you maximize your produce haul. And if you're looking to research for your next farmers market foray, be sure to check out both our mushroom and microgreens flavor guides.  Lion's mane mushrooms are the "meat" in these vegan sandwiches. An added bonus: Leftover chimichurri is a versatile condiment.  Trumpet-shaped pasta with tomatoes and eggplant is a weeknight-friendly recipe that pairs well with light Barbera wine.  Pharm Table chef Elizabeth Johnson's plant-based ceviche uses thinly sliced beets in her version of the South American dish.  Fermenting mushrooms takes a bit of planning for this vegetarian dish, but the payoff is well worth the effort.  A spicy microgreen salad from Wyoming chef Clark Myers is enhanced with beets, pears and pistachios.  |
