What is a plant based diet?

What is a plant based diet?
A plant based diet to me means that the vast majority of calories I consume comes from produce, beans, nuts and seeds, healthy fats, and grains. It means trying to eliminate meat, dairy, eggs, ect. Does that mean I will never again eat meat, dairy, or something that's not good for me? Nope. But I am going to do my best from now on to focus my meals around this healthier form of eating.

Beans

PeakĀ® Pinto Beans - 25 lb. bag
Almost every week I make a big pot of beans.
We use them for Veggies Burros, Nachos or veggie taco salad, or just eat them plain.
I love to mix them with rice, guacamole, and homemade salsa in a bowl for lunch.

I usually just follow the package directions, and then add a jar of Herdez salsa (per 1lb of beans) at the end of cooking them (drain most of the remaining liquid).

So easy, so good.
