The baseline use of plant-based milk prior to instituting oat milk as the default was 16.6%. That jumped to 51.9% when baristas informed guests oat milk was the default option.

The American Heart Association recommendations emphasize eating more plant-based protein instead of meat and drinking less alcohol, contradicting the recent food pyramid updates that suggest increased red meat and whole milk consumption.

We are not moving away from making plant-based meat. This is a strategic expansion of our portfolio into additional protein categories. We start at the farm with clean and simple, non-GMO ingredients like yellow peas, red lentils and faba beans. We love clean protein and fiber.

Those boxes of store-bought Jell-O-style powders typically use gelatin to achieve the familiar springy, jiggly texture. As it turns out, however, agar agar works just as well and is derived instead from algae. It is a flavorless, odorless, and translucent gelling agent that can be slipped into any recipe, though the preparation and storage requirements are not exactly the same as those of gelatin.

These tiny packages pack a nutritional punch-so much so that the advisory committee for the 2025 U.S. Dietary Guidelines recommended upping the daily serving size of legumes and promoting them as a protein source over meat and seafood. Navy beans, for example, are especially fiber-dense, and lentils are protein powerhouses.

All out of whole milk, or looking for a non-dairy substitute for allergies or diet preferences? Milk is an important ingredient in baked recipes: it softens the baked good, provides moisture, and helps with browning. It's also integral in many types of savory recipes as well.

For someone aiming to end the global livestock industry, Bruce Friedrich begins his new book called Meat in disarming fashion: I'm not here to tell anyone what to eat. You won't find vegetarian or vegan recipes in this book, and you won't find a single sentence attempting to convince you to eat differently. This book isn't about policing your plate.

John did not want to give up beef entirely, but he feared the impact of the beef industry on the Paris agreement's limit of 1.5C of post-industrial global heating and the devastating effects of beef farming on deforestation. He compared the overconsumption of beef to the coolness of tobacco back in the day: Norms feel permanent, but norms can change and when they do it can be powerful, he said.

A sandwich might sound like a "boring" meal, but these vegetarian sandwiches are anything but uninspired! I've spent years testing different combinations of veggie sandwich fillings in my kitchen, and over the years I've collected my favorite ideas for making meatless lunches and dinners. These vegetarian sandwiches have become my go-to's for quick weeknight dinners and healthy lunches that actually make me look forward to the meal.

Over the years, I've become a huge fan of tofu. Here's a way to prepare it that I can't get enough of: crispy tofu! It's easy to make and comes out perfectly seasoned, with extra crunchy edges and a tender interior. I love that there's no need to press the tofu in this recipe, making it quick and easy for weeknight dinners! It's actually pretty amazing that it can go from a bland blog to meaty, savory cubes in just 20 minutes.

Sometimes all you need is to curl up on the couch with a big bowl of pasta, wearing an old sweatshirt that can handle a little tomato-sauce splatter. After all, it's comfort food with a heavy emphasis on the comfort - all carbs and sauce and warm, full feelings. But what if you could get that same satisfaction with the added benefit of a little protein boost with just one easy swap? All you have to do is reach for a box of edamame pasta.
