Mark your calendars for Sunday, July 13, 11:00 am. That’s when we gather on the patio after the service for the next Climate Action Plant Based Pot Luck. Fittingly, one of the themes of that Sunday’s service is Keeping an Open Heart. Joining fellow UUs at the Pot Luck opens your heart to healing our planet while improving our health and feeding our collective psyche.
A recent Harvard Health study suggests that increasing the share of plant based protein in your diet is linked to significantly lowered risks of heart and blood vessel problems. It’s also linked to healthy aging. Notice that you just need to increase your plant based protein, not eliminate your animal protein. That might seem daunting and that’s where the Pot Luck helps. You will taste and savor many different dishes and find simple recipes to try. You can bring something simple to share, like fruits or vegetables, or you can find easy plant based recipes online at sites like www.cookieandkate.com, and https://naturallyella.com/. There are so many recipe sites!
The best recipe is sharing good food and conversation – guaranteed when you join the Pot Luck. See you there!
