Over a dozen people attended the book group discussions for the first half of the book “The Engine 2 Seven-Day Rescue Diet: Eat Plants, Lose Weight, Save Your Health,” by Rip Esselstyn. And here is the exciting part – many of us are going to try the 7-Day Rescue Diet together! But first we are going to meet in March to discuss the second half of the book. You are welcome to join us, even if you did not come before, as it will be quite easy to catch up.

The March book club meetings will be on Zoom on Thursday, March 23, at 7:00 pm (please register to get the link at https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0vfuCqrTwqE9yRJ7dzQ1dpiD7x4zdIFuiH) and in person on Sunday, March 26, at 7:00 pm in the Alliance Room at FUUSN (please RSVP to UU-Plant-Based-contact-us@googlegroups.com).

Available at many libraries, this book features the interesting story of how a group of firefighters in Texas decided to try plant-based eating in order to improve their health. The results may surprise you, and the book contains a treasure trove of healthy, easy-to-make, plant-based recipes. In the March meetings, we will focus on Chapters 5-7 and the recipes, although people should feel free to discuss any aspect of the book.
