Hi David, Happy Earth Day to you also! I’m on Day 2 and it’s going great so far. I’m making dishes that are tasty and chock full of vegetables, can’t say I miss meat..as yet! To answer your questions, pimento is the same as allspice which is a dry ground spice. It is best if you can find the Jamaican pimento but allspice will do the trick also. The camera I’m using is Canon Rebel T3i, it’s a great first camera and the price can’t be beat. I recommend buying it from Amazon.com for the best price.

I did veggie only for lent and even though I’m back on meat now having salads, veggies and fresh fruits as my daily staples makes all the difference in how I feel what type of energy I have ect. Way to go gal! I also noticed a difference when I cut out most of the dairy I’ve been taking in. That being said I wanted to make some of your Jerk soon. I need some advice! For your marinade you say 3 tbsp of Pimento! I think that means the same thing as allspice, but not sure if it comes already in a paste or if I should just use allspice berries, or if you are referencing cherry peppers. Please advise! Many thanks,
David
P.S. I am buying a camera soon and would love to know what type you use as your pictures are so nice!!! Blessings and happy Earth day!!!!

That looks like some good eatin’. I reckon the carrots will add a sweet punch to the pot. I need to try it. It’s better than eating that turnip stew and parsnip soup my wife cooks for me everyday.

I’m so inspired to do a no meat challenge myself but I’m not sure I can give up the beef. The cabbage looks so good but too bad it gives me gas

I think you will be surprised how easy it is. I stopped eating meat abruptly and felt so good almost immediately that I haven’t looked back. Good luck!

Thanks, I had the urge to eat healthier and decided to try something new. I’ve NEVER gone longer than a few days without eating meat so this will be quite the challenge.
