Eating vegan is doing away with food containing animal products but has its benefits. It can help you lose excess weight, and it can be higher in nutrients, and is also linked with lower heart disease and lowering risks of certain cancers.

Enjoy this vegan dish with your family. You don’t have to tell them it’s vegan, just delicious and nutritious. ;-)
