VEGAN LIKE BUNNIES

Wonderful rabbits have inspired us to change our own habits, live and eat kindly to benefit our health, animals and the planet. At Cottontails we follow a whole plant food lifestyle, based on fruit, vegetables, potatoes, grains, legumes, herbs and small amounts of avocado, seeds and nuts.

If you are interested in a plant-based diet, why not give it a try – one meal or one day at a time. You’ll be amazed how quickly your taste buds adapt to fresh, natural food, the kind we were meant to eat. For simple recipes and advice on becoming a slim, healthy vegan, take a look at Cottontails’ Cookbook.
