Vegetarian facts

Finding things to pack yourself for lunch can be a challenge.  Especially if you’re trying to maintain a healthy, plant based diet.  Some ideas include the humble peanut butter sandwich on 100% whole wheat bread:  just get the bread and spread it with 2 Tbsp of creamy peanut butter.  Add some fruit preserves or smashed fruit for extra flavor.  Sliced strawberries, bananas, and raspberries are tasty additions. If you’re lucky enough to be near a grocery store that sells those nicely sized tofu cutlets that are ready to eat, you could grab one of those and whisk together soy sauce with sesame oil for a tasty dip.  Buy a piece or two of fresh fruit, also.  Edamame can now be found in microwaveable snack sized boxes.  The possibilities are endless.

Aside from convenience, there are a lot of other excellent reasons to make the switch to a plant based vegetarian or even vegan diet.  Here is an infographic I found with some sweet benefits that come with adopting a mostly fruit and vegetable diet that is also low in fat.
