Plant-based eating is a lifestyle that focuses on eating foods derived from plant sources. This can include fruit, vegetables, grains, pulses, legumes, nuts, and meat substitutes such as soy products.
People often have different interpretations of what ‘plant-based’ eating looks like. Some people still include small amounts of animal products such as meat and fish, while focusing mainly on vegetarian foods – The key is adding high-quality, nutrient-dense plant-based foods.

Listen to the Green with ENVY Podcast
Kefiloe and I were born 2 weeks apart and grew up side by side from birth. I have watched her journey and passion for creating healthy plant-based meals and her willingness to always teach the next person. It made obvious sense for me to invite her for a chat.
The plant-based lifestyle has many benefits for the environment and our health.
- There is no air pollution from the production of food.
- No packaging required therefore less waste to landfill sites
- No transportation from farms/warehouses to retail to your home.
I hope this episode with Kefiloe inspired you to at least adopt this lifestyle for a day, week, or month. Join us for the #SpringCleanEating challenge, where Kefi will be sharing recipes and ideas on her @hapi_sprouts. We would appreciate your feedback too.
Thank you for listening.
