Why Veggies?

About a month ago, my husband and I decided we needed to change the way we eat and we needed to do it now. We do not use the word "diet" because we plan on maintaining it. Are we vegans? No. Are we vegetarians? No. We are just trying to eat tasty food and feel better, a side effect of that being a major reduction in the amount of meat we consume.  We used to eat meat with every lunch and dinner, so 14 times a week. Now, we have meat with a meal maybe 4 times a week depending on whether there are dinner leftovers for lunch (if not we have a turkey sandwich).

I am definitely not a trend follower. I could care less what other people are doing, what music is cool, and what the new style is each season, so I assure you I'm not jumping on any train with this new way of eating and am not doing it to be cool or whatnot. I am simply trying to be a better me, and I wanted to start this blog as a resource for anyone who is interested in incorporating more vegetable based meals into their life. Personally, I hate vegetables, so I can promise you the recipes I use are meat eater friendly!
