"Let's Go To Bahama Breeze!"
The first thing that pops into my husband's head is (of course). STEAK!
Juicy, tender, delicious, dreamy. Hardly ever do we think of cows standing in their own poo and eating what they themselves are not supposed to eat. We hardly think of that poor-disease ridden cow being slaughtered just to make us happy for half an hour at Bahama Breeze (no offense Bahama Breeze - this is about Steak).
Bloody, corpsey....dead - never crossed his mind. Until one sunny day when he decided to watch Food, Inc. among other docu-dramas on American fast foods. Still, he wouldn't jump with the masses. He was hesitant...Oh, his love for steak was becoming a love that suffers and thus kept him there - wanting more.
Why the change then? Well, simply put, The Holy Spirit. No joke. My husband finally told ME he wants us to be vegetarians (I thought to myself, "Finally! I'll jsut let him think he was the first to say so") because our bodies are the temples of The Holy Spirit. Or atleast that is what God intended for us muckly humans.
And thus we embark on our journey to eat, preach, and be merry. It will not be easy, but we will let God be our guide and our Master Chef. We'll bring to you yummy replacement recipes to help you on your journey to transition into a better/healthier lifestyle as well.

What about the chickens and Cows that are raised humanely? There was a section on food.inc that had farmers raising and processing chicken naturally with real food, with no chemicals, out in the open with sun. Hmmm? mmmm....chicken....
Transitioning to vegetarianism is a HUGE lifestyle change....For me, it's more of being mentally committed to the idea rather than for the taste of the food. I for one don't personally care for meat or chicken...yea its delicious but I can live without it. However, b/c I haven't fully committed myself to becoming 100% vegetarian I don't feel guilty for "sparingly" eating chicken or meat...(shhh don't tell jejejejejejeje)
I'm excited about the recipes you will be posting. Hey who knows? Maybe the Holy Spirit will convict me to giving up the "desires of the flesh" too..... :)
