 Fort Collins, Colorado, November 2011— Yes, we’re going to tell you about a meatless alternative, but this isn’t just another veggie burger we’re putting before you; this one’s a dry mix, from Harmony Valley— and, they say, is a healthy new option to replace meat in your favorite recipes. There’s no doubt of the growing trend of Meatless Monday and healthy eating, so you would think there’s no better time to consider this kind of option. With 14 grams of protein and four grams of fiber, Harmony Valley’s soy-based vegetarian mix may be just the thing to have in the pantry to replace ground meat on Mondays. It’s versatile, quick and convenient, and only needs one thing to prepare it for cooking – water. www.harmonyvalleyfarm.com And the mix is available in two great flavors: Hamburger and Sausage Mix. The folks at Harmony Valley want to educate consumers of the fact that replacing meat just once a week can improve health and reduce carbon footprints. On average, Americans consume eight ounces of meat per day – 45% more than the USDA recommends. Going meatless once a week can reduce or prevent the risk of conditions like cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. And it helps reduce carbon footprints by saving resources like water and fossil fuels. With a designated Meatless Monday, people have a scheduled and recurring reminder to start the week off on a nutritious note. Harmony Valley Foods, founded in 1984, is a privately owned and operated business in Fort Collins, Colorado. The company creates shelf-stable protein mixes from vegetables to encourage health, is dedicated to fully sustainable business practices and is powered by the winds of Northern Colorado. Its products are certified vegan and kosher. Harmony Valley Mixes are available in natural food grocers. Harmony Valley can be found in the dry foods aisle- near the pastas and whole grains.
