For years my friend, Dr. Jim Loomis, Medical Director for the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), and I wanted to collaborate on a project and during a lunch meeting while he was in town, I told him it was time St. Louis to host a plant-based event. Since 2011 I have been educating our community on the health benefits of a plant-based diet and it was high time we invite the plant-based pioneering researchers and physicians to our great town to share their information with us. And that's just what we did. On Saturday, July 14, 2018, the Plant-based Nutrition Summit unfolded in incredibly eloquent fashion to a sold out crowd at the prestigious Washington University. Thank you to all involved who helped us put St. Louis on the plant-based map!

You've never had chili like this! It's packed with beans and vegetables. And, you'll ever miss the meat because I have added bulgur wheat to give you that mouth-feel and the sweetness of the San Marzano tomatoes will add a richness you'll really love. Cozy in and enjoy this all weekend long.
