VEGAN RECIPES & MEALS WITH AVOCADO
VEGAN RECIPES & MEALS WITH AVOCADO
Trying to go mighty but not meaty? Then avocados are the perfect fruit (yes, they’re a fruit!) to mix in with any meal. From that breakfast that will power you through the day to the sweet treat before bed, avocados are incredibly versatile and healthy.
HOW TO START A VEGAN DIET
Most people know what a vegetarian is and probably know someone who abstains from eating animals, but what is a vegan? Not only do vegans skip meat, but they also refrain from using animal products such as eggs, dairy, and honey.
WHY GO VEGAN?
Turns out your parents were right when they made you finish all the veggies on your plate at dinner time. Eating vegetables and fruits, like healthy avocados, is associated with a reduced risk of many chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease. It may be protective against certain types of cancers, according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
BUT I COULD NEVER GIVE UP MEAT!
Sure, giving up ribs and pepperoni pizza sounds worse than sleeping on a bed of nails, but a trip through the vegan section at your local grocery will prove you can have your cake and eat it too. Most of the animal products we consume have a vegan version ready to go.
ARE AVOCADOS VEGAN?
Not only are avocados vegan, but avocados can also be one of the staples of a vegan diet. The body needs some dietary fat, and one-third of a medium sized avocado, which is a 50g serving, contains 6g of “good” fat. When thinking about how to start a vegan diet, avocados are one of the best places to start because of the nutrients they can add to many meals.
