People have many different reasons for wanting to eat less meat. Some people are perturbed by the treatment of animals and therefore have a strong desire to become vegan. And then there are some who simply don’t like the taste. Whatever the case, if you’re trying to eat less meat, here are some simple tips that can help you achieve that goal.
Plan Your Meals
If you’re currently used to eating meat every day, you may feel confused when you realize you don’t have many meatless options for lunch or dinner. Planning your meals, researching the recipes, and getting the ingredients can be the key to your lifestyle change. It’s important to eat foods that provide enough protein and healthy fats so you can stay full longer even without any meat.
Start Slowly
It’s okay if you don’t want to change your whole life at once; that probably wouldn’t be sustainable anyway. You can start slow, with one meatless day per week, and build up the amount of meals without meat you eat on a weekly basis from there.
Find Company
Everything is easier when you have support, so if your significant other or a close friend wants to join you on this challenge, it will be easier for both of you! You can keep each other accountable and motivate each other along the way, and also come up with new exciting recipes to try together.
