Animals kept for food production purposes are a large source of CO2 emission that contribute to climate change, especially due to the large scale distribution and packaging that is involved. I have been trying to reduce my consumption of animal based products to help reduce my carbon footprint as well as trying to source more food products locally. This also has the added benefit of helping reduce the demand for factory farming and will hopefully help lead to change in the farming industry in regards to animal welfare and help smaller family run farms. 

I have always enjoyed cooking; breakfast was always my favorite meal to cook and as a kid I would always volunteer to cook breakfast for my parents. Part of the fun of cooking for me is trying out new foods and recipes. This post will be the first in a series of shorter posts about a new recipe I tried that week. The posts will be in addition to Sunday’s post and I hope to get one up every week.
