Good question! To many people, the thought of having a meal without any meat just seems completely out of reach! “I’ll lack protein in my diet”, “I won’t feel full” and “How do you even cook with pulses and beans?” are statements and questions that are heard far too often! Plant-based does not mean cutting all sources from animals out of your diet. It’s just the suggestion of having one, two or as many days as you can, eating more of a variety of protein sources.
