Vegetarians of the World, Unite!
Today is World Vegetarian Day. We find it hard to believe that the whole world could agree on this, but we read it on the internet, so it must be true.
We decided to celebrate this unprecedented display of world peace and unity (Absolutely no sense of irony here. Really.) by sharing this rice pilaf recipe from our Fix-It and Forget-It Vegetarian Cookbook. Chock-full of power foods like cranberries, almonds, carrots, and brown rice, it’s tasty and good for you.
We think that’s something we can all agree on!
