If we’re friends, or you just know me from my blog or my socials, you’ll know I’m vegan and I’m very bloody worried about the climate, what we’re doing to the planet and the future we are leaving our children/grandchildren, nieces and nephews/children of our friends {by looking at it that way, we’re including everyone – not just those of us who are parents!}.

The simplest and most immediate thing we can do as individuals to have an effect on climate change {which, to be honest, can feel insanely overwhelming most days!} is to stop eating animals and animal products.

No Meat May sets the challenge to each of us to go a month without meat. This is easy in our home because I’ve been vegan for almost 4 years and vegetarian for about 5 before that. A lot of people I know, however, wonder what on earth they will eat if they aren’t eating meat and dairy. So I decided to share 1 recipe every day for the month.

crispy smashed potatoes

I mean, sure, this is a side dish. Technically. Or you can just pretend you’re eating other things and then there will be more room in your belly for crispy smashed potatoes. Or maybe that’s just me 😉 I’m needing a whole lot of comfort right now. If that comes from potatoes then so be it!

This How Sweet Eats recipe is great – I would just swap out the yoghurt for coconut yoghurt or sriracha mayonnaise.
