10 Delicious Green Summer Meals
Posted on July 28, 2017
If you've followed Green Calgary's social media for a while now, you've likely stumbled on our #meatlessmonday posts, where we suggest meatless meals each & every week that are delicious and fun! Last week in our blog and newsletter, we discussed The Sustainability Secret by Kip Andersen and Keegan Kuhn, which suggests that the best thing you can do for the planet is to stop eating meat. Whether you agree with their assessment or not, it's a fact that meatless meals leave less of an environmental footprint than ones with meat (it's how much that is in question). Meatless Mondays weren't started with this idea in mind - it was a healthy eating movement - but, if everyone who eats meat everyday just went meatless for one day a week, there would be a huge difference to our global environment. Even if you're not vegan or vegetarian, many meatless meals are just really tasty, too! We wouldn't want anyone to miss out, so here are 10 of the most delicious of our #meatlessmonday posts!
