#ShowYourStripes The first image is an iconic Stevenage underpass infrastructure chosen to recognise the vision of the New Town planners. The scarf shows UK temperature data. The second image shows the urgency of the climate emergency, action is needed to make our infrastructure fit for the future.

I really enjoy volunteering at Hooves & Tails in #Hertford. The 50+ sheep and goat are incredibly friendly and living their best life, having been rescued from neglect 💚 You can find out more and make a small donation to support this important work at: www.hoovesandtails.com/about

Honestly my favourite place in #Stevenage 💚

My favourite place to eat in town is Cha Kulcha - a Punjabi dhabba. Their chickpea curry is divine and full of flavour. They also serve #vegan masala chai and use the leftover naan dough to create delicious cinnamon rolls😋 #veganfood 🍜🍽️

This is one of the reasons I started More Than Broccoli in 2022 so I could demonstrate how easy it is now to eat plantbased meals. Most of my family & friends have now found (new) favourite meals with a healthy #vegan swap. Give it a go! Also follow the More Than Broccoli blog for daily inspiration.

There are many #plantbased meat substitutes available these days which might seem daunting at first. Swapping these into your favourite meals is an easy way to make your dish healthier and better for the planet. Here's my reflection with some helpful tips: www.meerdanbroccoli.net/an-introduct...

What's your favourite vegetable? Mine, you guessed it, is broccoli. Pick your favourite veggies, add chickpeas for some #plantbased protein, roast them with teriyaki sauce, serve with brown rice.. an easy and delicious meal 🍜 #veganfood full recipe:

Recently approved by an Italian friend of a friend... my pastabake with courgette! I was nervous to cook this for an Italian but it seems I've paid close enough attention during my travel in Sicily to make this a successful #plantbased meal 🍜 #veganfood

Pasta bake with courgette - More Than Broccoli
This pasta bake has been inspired by our trip through Sicily. The trick to make it delicious is to choose a quality tomato sauce as your base.

Beautiful day for some volunteering! A very productive day at Hooves & Tails farm animal sanctuary in Hertford. All sheep had a health check and a hoof trim 🐏 if you're looking to support a local animal welfare charity, consider sponsoring a sheep or goat at Hooves & Tails: www.hoovesandtails.com
