SPANISH PORK & BEANS

“Choose protein foods that come from

plants more often” is one of the new

suggestions in the updated Canada’s

Food Guide, which means eating more

lentils, beans and nuts, and less meat

and dairy. This past January, in the

medical journal The Lancet, a team

of 37 scientists issued similar advice,

calling for a planetary health diet as

a way of creating a sustainable way to

feed the globe’s growing population.

With this fl exitarian approach, meat

takes more of a supporting role in a

dish. In this Spanish Pork & Beans, you

can play around with the amount of

beans and meat you include, doubling

the beans to make it vegetarian.
