Autumn Is Upon Us
Whether you’re a lifelong vegetarian or just dipping your toes into the world of meat-free meals, October is a great time to experiment with new recipes and discover how you can maintain a healthy, balanced diet with more veg during vegetarian month.
Ahead of vegetarian month we want to offer you some inspiration for hearty homecooked meat-free meals that are easy and delicious! If you do not think you can go an entire month without it, that’s okay!
The 1st to 7th October is National Vegetarian Week so why not start out by trying Meatless Mondays. We encourage you make some plant-based swaps in your favourite dishes as not only is a vegetarian diet rich in vitamins and antioxidants, but you can still get plenty of protein!
