Among the many foodie trends that have been emerging over the last few years, one of the most significant is the plant-based diet. More and more research has been showing that adopting a plant-based diet is linked with a lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Eating a plant-based diet is also among the most significant ways to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions.
But beyond the technicalities of saving the environment and improving your health- plant-based meals are just plain delicious! And these days, with the help of some incredible food-preneurs, vegan chefs, and creative bloggers, accessing mouth-watering recipes has never been simpler.
