Pedal for Patients in charity bike ride for cancer care Spring is a great time to reset. I think about fresh vegetables, trail hikes, runs and lighter meals. I say lighter meals because the increase in activity in the spring seems to be fuelled by eating lighter while in winter we tend to be drawn to comfort foods. For instance, you can lighten up your food by replacing meat in your spaghetti, sauces, or chilis. Reducing the amount of meat in your diet means you digest your food more quickly, thus saving energy for other activities. Digestion takes up about 50% of your energy, so the less heavy the food, the less energy it takes for digestion. As a long-time ex-meat eater, I recall that heavy feeling after eating a steak dinner and just wanting to "veg out" on the couch as it digested. Rarely did I want to go for a run after eating meat. Recently, my husband wanted to cut down on meat during the week, so I replaced ground beef in a spaghetti sauce recipe with a ground veggie product. The results were outstanding. He couldn't tell the difference. Here are a few suggestions for replacing ground beef in chilis, tacos and pasta sauces: • Green lentils (cook them before adding to your chili or sauce). They're high in protein and won't dissolve when cooked like red lentils do. • Try a commercial ground vegetable product. Typically, these are made from soy, but I've also tried a ground meat replacement from mushrooms. I prefer the mushroom one for the flavour. However, the spices in the chili or spaghetti sauce mask the taste of the soy ground product. • One of my favourite ways to make tacos is with roasted cauliflower which has a satisfying thick texture. When the Oshawa vegan restaurant Mathildas offers cauliflower wings with buffalo sauce, I purchase them and use them in tacos. I add vegan cheese, chopped lettuce, tomatoes and salsa. The result is amazing. • I've also used extra beans in chili and chickpeas in pasta sauce. Here's an easy-roasted cauliflower recipe from www.evolvingtable.com Ingredients 1 large head cauliflower about 4-5 cups 2 Tbsp. oil olive or avocado ¼ tsp. garlic powder ¼ tsp. paprika ½ tsp. salt ¼ tsp. black pepper Instructions • Heat air fryer to 370°F for at least 3 minutes. • Cut cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Whisk together oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. • Add cauliflower florets and stir until they are well coated in the sauce. • Place cauliflower into the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, tossing the basket halfway through. Sheree's hack: Purchase pre-chopped cauliflower if you're rushed for time. This will reduce prep time Lightening up spring foods Plant-Based Eating by Sheree Nicholson
