The New Year is the perfect time to try some new healthy habits out for size. And, with the benefits of eating plant-based foods so well documented, there’s no better way to get a head-start on your healthy year than trying out Veganuary!
While going completely meat-free could be a bit of a stretch for some of us, swapping just a few meals per week for a vegan alternative is a great step in the right direction. The best part? With so many amazing cafes and restaurants offering great plant-based options nowadays, and a world of creative vegan recipes at your fingertips, going meat-free doesn’t have to mean missing out on anything.
Ready to try incorporating some new vegan meals into your kitchen? Why not start by trying one of our go-to favorites:
