The Flexitarian Diet - New Book for Part-Time Veggies
Are you a flexitarian? If you're eating more plants and less meat, fish and fowl each week, you're probably a flexi. The term 'flexitarian' became hot a few years ago and as a part-time veggie, I immediately fell in love with the word. I relish vegetarian food, even tried being a veggie for five months once, but couldn't stay away from folding leaner cuts of meat and seafood into my regular diet.Spinach lasagna, giant garbage salads, broccoli quiche -- I make these kinds of meals regularly for our family. But I also flip turkey burgers, too. According to the Vegetarian Resource Group, health is the leading driver for vegetarian food consumption.
If you want to learn more, don't miss registered dietitian Dawn Jackson Blatner's new book -- The Flexitarian Diet: The Mostly Vegetarian Way to Lose Weight, Be Healthier, Prevent Disease and Add Year to Your Life. Packed with flexi recipes and simple shopping lists, Blatner will get you flexing to manage your weight, increase your energy and reduce your health risks.

I've eaten like this most of my life. Never liked meat as a kid, like a bit now. Maybe one in 10 of my meals have some kind of meat, and I love sushi and most fish, and crave a hamburger every month or two. Otherwise, I'm a plant eater.
