Want to save money on your groceries, improve your health and reduce your carbon footprint?

Mark 29th September in your diary now to join millions of Australians in giving vegetarian meals a go and do your wallet, health and the environment a big favour.

Australia's second annual National Vegetarian Week, sponsored by Sanitarium Health Food Company, runs from 29 September to 5 October and features a comparison of high meat, plant-based and vegetarian seven-day meal plans and tasty, contemporary recipes the whole family will love.

With NewsPoll research showing that seven in ten adult Australians eat vegetarian meals - with almost half wanting to know more interesting ways for cooking them - a range of community events will be held around the country to shine the spotlight on the vast array of scrumptious plant-based dishes that can be quickly whipped up at home.
