24 MAY 2023 S ummer is the season of abundance when it comes to fresh produce, making it the perfect time to start eating a more plant-focused diet, which centers around whole plant foods, such as fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts and seeds. It excludes all meat, dairy and eggs. Here are some reasons why eating more plant- based in the summer is easy: • Fresh produce is abundant. During the summer months, various fruits and vegetables are in season. • Lighter meals are more appealing during the hot Arizona summer. Plant- based meals tend to be lighter and easier to digest, making them a great choice for summertime dining. Salads, smoothie bowls, and grilled veggies are a few examples. • Plant-based meals have endless options for creating delicious, satisfying meals. • Plant-based meals are budget- friendly. You immediately reduce costs when reducing your intake of meats, dairy and eggs. Join my monthly membership for recipes, health videos and live Zoom cooking classes for only $10 per month.
