I could not be happier that you’ve decided to join forces with our website and help animals with your kindness. Plant-based lifestyle is proven to contribute to your good health, it will make you energised and help prevent a multitude of diseases.
Majority of us are currently programmed to buy a generous piece of meat and then think of veggies as a garnish, sometimes an optional extra. Meats, dairy, processed foods, refined sugars and trans-fats are causing high levels of cholesterol, high blood pressure, they are carcinogens and trigger inflammation in our bodies. Unfortunately, those industries are massive and they want you to be programmed in this way.
On top of that, animal agriculture is a major cause of pollution, waste and greengas emissions. If you are still in doubt, just make a family visit to a big industrial farm with thousands of cows or other farmed animals. I am convinced that there is no horror film made in comparison with what you are going to see there. Actually, many big industrial farms won’t let you or any animal activists in.
Only your decision to go plant-based for the next week will save half a dozen animal lives.

Baked beans on sourdough toast
You probably think I am kidding. Many foodie bloggers will think I am crazy even thinking about putting up a recipe of beans on toast. Whilst some of them might go for something complex and may be spectacular, I choose simple but effective in terms of nutrition.
Beans will provide a massive boost to your protein intake when you are on a plant-based diet. The issue with many supermarket brands of baked beans is that they also come packed with lots of sugars and preservatives. I suggest making your life more simple by preparing this super easy breakfast but choosing organic and preservative free option for your beans.
Sourdough bread will also do you a lot of good in terms of good slow releasing carbs (energy from unrefined wheat, rye and so on) and good amount of dietary fibre for your digestion. All and all, this is a winner.

Prep
Total

Source a good quality unsweetened and preservative free baked beans (I use Clearsping brand). Bake your own in advance and then simply use it when you are ready (you can pre-heat them in the morning for a warm meal).
Similarly, don't forget about spending just a bit more on a high quality sourdough bread.

For 2 people (4 toasts):
- 1/2 cup of baked beans (in an unsweetened tomato sauce)
- 4 slices of sourdough bread
