One of the oldest magazines featuring articles related to diet, recipes and health, Good Housekeeping, has released another vegetarian cookbook, Good Housekeeping Family Vegetarian Cooking: 225 Recipes Everyone Will Love.

Good Housekeeping’s latest is said to feature a variety of meatless recipes from wraps, sandwiches, soups and casseroles and includes a chapter designed for families with only one vegetarian so the meals can incorporate meat.

Kinda silly to do for a vegetarian cookbook and you would think the lone veggie in the family chapter would be an opportunity to introduce a variety of meat substitutes or plant based substitutes like seitan.

At any rate, you may purchase the collection for around $25 retail and MSNBC has included two sample recipes on their site for what you might find inside.

Green Music Group is a group of musicians, industry leaders and fans dedicated to spreading the environmental news throughout the industry.

Every two weeks on their website, Green Music Group, will present a challenge to fans and from now until June 18, Guster is challenging their fans to eat local at least once a day.

Lead singer and founding member of Green Music Group, Adam Gardner, speaks in the video.

“I feel personally connected to this challenge because I just recently joined a community supported agricultural program. And it was just amazing how much better the food tasted. The fact that I knew who was growing it, I met the farmer and knew that I was supporting that local farmer and that local economy just felt good to do.”

Gardner’s got a point about the taste. Compare fresh, local, crisp green beans to those brought halfway across the country or frozen or in a can.

No competition!

Once you try eating local, we promise, as Guster would say, “Fa Fa-Fa Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa,” it will “never be the same again.”

“It may take a little effort for the first few weeks. Then you’ll start getting used to it and you’ll find more and more fun things to eat. ’Cause food’s a drug, and you gotta do the happy drugs rather than the sad drugs, you know what I mean?”

Russell Simmons, explaining switching to a vegan lifestyle, at an event honoring him by the National Arts Club.
