In addition to the environmental benefits, research shows cutting back on meat may have a host of health benefits. Join the Meatless Monday movement and enjoy these four healthy vegetarian recipes from Mary Berg, including sandwiches, brunch dishes, and side dishes! 

Tempeh bacon BLT

This modern and vegetarian take on the classic BLT uses protein-packed marinated tempeh as a substitute for bacon, on lightly toasted Stonemill Sourdough Multigrain Rye bread and topped with tomatoes for a sweet finish! 

Huevos rancheros with quick stewed black beans

Huevos rancheros are the most perfect vegetarian meal. Huevos rancheros (or rancher’s eggs) are a typical breakfast served at Mexican farms, featuring corn tortillas and fried eggs topped with plenty of homemade warmed salsa made with ripe tomatoes and cilantro. Top with your favourites such as avocado, lime wedges, or hot sauce. 

Maple oat milk cold brew 

Inspired by oatmeal and maple syrup, this deliciously sweet and creamy maple oat milk latte needs to be on your breakfast menu tomorrow! Save your trip to the coffee shop and make your own cold brew at home, along with your own oat milk infused with maple syrup and vanilla to create one epic-tasting morning wake-up call.

Miso maple brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes with lentils

You need to try these tender-on-the-inside, crispy-on-the-outside brussels sprouts with a tangy, salty miso maple glaze, served with creamy sweet potatoes and lentils. This is the perfect vegetarian side dish for your next dinner party!
