Embracing my human side, I've commenced a new eco-friendly endeavor: #MeatlessMondays. The illogical dietary practice? Nay, an attempt to preserve Earth's resources. As I partake in tofu tacos, their contradictory nature fascinates me. 🖖🌮 #ClimateChange #EarthLove #VulcanGoneVeggie #BitBook

It is #MeatlessMonday so I am hyping up the protein with

⭐ Mashed Chickpeas with Turmeric, topped with olives, preserved lemon and eggplant Kasaundi. A Tunisian peasant dish, from Roden's Med, slightly twisted to what I have (Added the end of a jar of chipotle in adobo sauce, a couple of pieces of my dried tomatoes, and the eggplant Kasaundi is mine) ✅ ALL MADE AND DELICIOUS

⭐ My wonderful fennel, fava bean and red lentil soup, a wintery delight! Made with home grown/dried fava beans (aka broad beans) 🛒 Need to get some fennel.

⭐ Pasta (for a small amount of protein) with pesto from the freezer and chopped walnuts

⭐ Veggies include stuffed Okra, sauteed greens. Also probably picking up some Jerusalem artichokes from @collettell

🍽️ There will be leftovers for #LeftoversWednesday. 👯👯 One of the most exciting days of the week because it feels like a picnic. We often call it #GrazingDay.

🛒 Also need to get supplies for my home-made muesli. That'll be an afternoon or evening job to make.

Honestly, have you made these Vegan Sausage Rolls yet????? If not, even if you are not #vegan or #vegetarian, get onto it for healthy healthy food options. Make them for #MeatlessMondays.

This recipe has an international reputation. It is from the wonderful Melbourne-based Where's the Beef? couple who are NOT on Mastodon (leave them a message and tell them to get over here.)

Honestly, you can't tell them from the non-veg variety. This week I am making a batch for the freezer, for the times I just want take-away. A couple of sausage rolls and some good Aussie tomato sauce (or home made Kasaundi, or my tomato-chilli jam) - it is delicious heaven.

(They are even protein-heavy.)

@sheardyweirdy My current approach is to advocate for eating less meat, rather than trying to push people into full vegetarianism.

It's like carpooling: if you share a ride w/ one person, you just cut car usage in half.

Similarly, if you just eat less meat, #meatlessMondays, #vegLunch, etc., then you've cut meat consumption significantly. And it's a lot easier for people to eat less than to eat none....

#meatlessmondays #BlackMastodon We’re doing meatless Mondays here at home, because, y’know… environment. This channel has been invaluable for recipe ideas. Vegetarian soul food. African and Rastafarian cooking may just help us save this damn planet! https://youtu.be/fT4tPOxoRd8
