Meatless Monday

New Meatless Monday Cookbook

The Hamburger is an American Favorite that has lots of versatility. MeatlessMonday.com  recently launched the Monday Burger Project. The goal of this project was to offer recipe options replacing a hamburger with one made with vegetables or beans for your Meatless Monday menu.

An average quarter-pound beef burger contains 31% of the recommended daily limit for saturated fat, and too much saturated fat has been linked to diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol and other preventable conditions. What’s more, the average quarter-pounder requires almost 27 times its weight in livestock feed, 143 billion BTUs of fossil fuel energy and over 52 gallons of water (or 6,758 8oz glasses) to produce.

The free E-Cookbook recipes include everything from delicious veggie burgers to protein-packed bean burgers, with allergen and dairy free options available.  Monday Burger E Cookbook
