Easter means eggs

- spring into a meat free menu
PRESS RELEASE
March 2001

Easter usually means family meals and Easter eggs so The Vegetarian Society has developed a few recipe ideas to help the veggies or meat reducers in your life. Quorn™ Roast Easter Stacks will make a great centre piece for a meal, and Simnel Cake, Hot Cross Buns and Easter Brownies all make scrummy traditional treats. All eggs when used in vegetarian recipes should be free range. Products which are 'Vegetarian Society Approved' and contain eggs must be from free range hens. To get hold of copies of our seasonal meat free recipes call the Vegetarian Society on 0161 925 2000 or visit Easter Recipes and find out how easy it is to be veggie at Easter.

The recipes are all developed by the Society's cookery school, the Cordon Vert, renowned for its innovative, delicious, meat free cooking.

For an alternative to turkey or chicken take a look at the products available from your usual supermarket or local health food store. It's also worth calling us to find out which products are approved by The Society.

The Society's product approval system was established in 1969 and ensures that vegetarian consumers can buy in confidence. This is because the symbol is renowned world wide as the only vegetarian logo to recognise the various ethical preferences of vegetarians.
