The holiday season is a time of tradition and comfort – and feasting on hearty delicious food. Holiday tables are typically anchored by a roasted turkey and/or ham and set with a cornucopia of other animal-based food products. But holiday feasts also serve up a troubling reality: animal agriculture and our consumption of animals is detrimental to the health of our planet and our lives.
But you can also tap a growing range of vegan foods – that is, foods in no way derived from animals – that can make for a satisfyingly festive meal with considerably less impact on the environment, and also offer some personal health benefits.
From the Sustainable Fairfield Task Force, here are ideas for “sustainable” holiday roasts.
