Going Veggie again??

So it looks like we might be going veggie again...as in vegetarian.  We feel so much healthier not eating meat, and even eggs and milk most times. Don't think we'll go full vegan though but not sure yet....ALSO, have been doing too much reading on how the animals are raised and then slaughtered and it's just not the the way it used to me on farms...that 'romantic' picture we have of the farm like say in Charlotte's Web.  There just aren't that many places that raise the animals well, slaughter them well or even let people see how it is done.  It didn't help to watch that report on chicken packaging etc...Unfortunately tofu isn't always 'treated' properly either...There is a soy factory in town that we think we'd like to go check out that looks pretty good.tofu  Animals are not humans but it's just too terrible to think about how they are raised commercially and the way they get killed...it's just not worth it for us...Looks like we will be getingt to do lots of hosting and share all our very tasty vegetarian recipes with our friends & family.  We haven't made a final decision yet but we're pretty sure.

  1. Good for you...I prefer not to think about where my meat comes from and am happy to try to eat vegetarian one day a week. I'd love to try some of your vegetarian recipes, I never know what to make besides soups and bean burritos since I'm so used to meat being a part of my meal!
