Ok everyone, I need help!

A few weeks ago I told @RepRaskin that this year I wanted to adopt a vegetarian diet for Lent in memory of his son Tommy.

Jamie said, “Well you’d have to do it the way Tommy would, which means bring people along with you!”

So, I have 3 requests:

1. Does anyone want to join me? Rules are 1) No judgement 2) Make it your own (you can go full 40 days, just veggie Mondays, etc 3) Be inclusive (no need to observe Lent to join)

2. Please comment w your favorite veggie recipes below! I would like to avoid 40 days of Easy Mac




(Pro-tip... make it permanent. Seems like a pretty good idea for the environment... just saying. #GreenNewDeal)

RIP
