As American's, we have been raised on a diet centering around meat and other animal products.
As omnivores, humans are carnivorous and I believe we need meat in our diets to be healthy. However, there are so many health and humanity issues
surrounding animal products now that most of us realize we don't need as much meat as we're accustomed to consume. There are some genuine
benefits to reducing the amount of meat we consume; cost and saturated fat consumption among them.
Some ingredients that can be used in place of meat in many recipes are summer squash
and broccoli in quick cooking dishes, winter squash in stews and soups, and keeping some dried porcini mushrooms around for stews, beans and
even sauces is a good idea. Just adjust cooking times for recipes depending on the vegetable you're using. Dried porcini mushrooms have a deep
and earthy flavor that is intense enough to give you the impression you're eating a meat sauce or soup.
Another idea is just prepare two vegetables (use those you like best) and skip the meat item
for your meal. Add a salad or good bread and butter. You'll feel really good the next day.
