This light, protein-rich and healthy salad will keep for up to a week in the fridge in a sealed container. It tastes exceptionally delicious and refreshing during the warmer months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The typical lunch in many companies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Belgium, many people who are at work during the day eat a lunch of filled rolls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even when companies organise lunch meetings, rolls or sandwiches  are often provided. These rolls or sandwiches are traditionally filled with one of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>ham<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>cheese<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ham and cheese<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>am\u00e9ricain (strongly spiced raw beef)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>mayonnaise-based salads, such as: fish salad, tuna salad, egg salad, meat salad, chicken salad and so on<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What exactly is wrong with these salads?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mayonnaise-based salads available in shops and in the catering sector leave a great deal to be desired in terms of quality and health. To cut costs, it is mainly salted and seasoned mayonnaise that is served, whilst the other ingredients of animal origin are kept to a minimum. So you often find yourself faced with a sea of mayonnaise with the odd piece of meat, fish or egg floating here and there. Mayonnaise is made from eggs and vegetable oil. As a result, it is very high in calories and cholesterol, whilst being low in nutrients with real nutritional value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why eat fewer eggs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-7-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">When I myself made the transition from omnivore to a fully plant-based diet, eggs were pretty much the last thing I cut out of my diet. I did enjoy omelettes and fried eggs, but I was far less keen on (hard) boiled eggs. Eggs seemed completely harmless to me, because you don\u2019t have to kill an animal for them. Until I started to look into the matter in more depth, including taking a peek behind the scenes of the egg industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-7-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">We take it for granted that a hen will lay about one egg a day in 2026. Yet hens have been selectively bred for this purpose for a century. Because around 1915, a hen laid an average of only about 25 eggs \u2026 per year! And that\u2019s understandable. No female animal reproduces non-stop throughout her entire life. It simply follows the seasons, with long periods during which the organism rests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An exhausting feat of strength<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-7-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s just that we humans have, as it were, \u2018converted\u2019 the laying hen and bred it into an egg-laying machine. If you consider the nutritional value and the raw materials that make up a chicken\u2019s egg, it is an enormous, exhausting feat of strength for such a frail bird to produce one every day. Just think of the large amount of proteins, fats and minerals (such as the calcium in the eggshell) that make up an egg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-7-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">If only we, as humans, could at least show \u2013 let alone feel \u2013 a modicum of gratitude for the gift of such an egg \u2026 But no. The average laying hen \u2013 or rather, \u2018egg-laying machine\u2019 \u2013 spends her miserable existence in the hell of an intensive poultry farm (a battery cage).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ethically and ecologically irresponsible<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-7-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">There she sits, crammed together with her fellow sufferers in a tiny space, amidst the stench of droppings and the noise, whilst the artificial light never goes out. She has no freedom or space whatsoever to display normal chicken behaviour, such as spreading her wings or taking dust baths in sand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-7-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">After about a year and a half, she is inexorably sent to the abattoir, where her life is brutally cut short. And this despite the fact that a hen can normally live for up to 18 years. That is, ethically speaking, totally wrong. A living creature reduced to less than a production machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-7-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">Who fancies an egg now? I certainly don\u2019t anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-7-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">Even those who focus solely on figures will still have to admit that the environmental impact of chicken farming is still considerably greater than that of producing plant-based protein sources. Take beans, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Fork Ranger<\/strong> and the hard data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-3-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">What is true, however, is that the ecological footprint (water consumption, energy consumption, CO\u2082 emissions) of chicken farming is much lower than that of cattle farming. So, for those who don\u2019t want to give up meat but are considering cutting down on it: put that beef aside and opt for chicken instead of beef or other ruminant mammals such as sheep, buffalo or goat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-3-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">An interesting source of information on the environmental impact of reducing meat and other animal products can be found at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forkranger.com\">Fork Ranger<\/a>. They have a website, an app and a number of multilingual publications, such as a cookbook and a seasonal calendar. However, these guys and girls couldn\u2019t care less about animal welfare. They\u2019re just cool number-crunchers. Still, they help put certain things into perspective and debunk false myths. As a result, their approach also helps to convince people and thus reduce meat consumption. Every little bit helps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-35f06ea7 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.peterplantpower.com\/en\/recipes\/\">Back to the recipe overview<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This salad is a lovely and much healthier alternative to traditional egg salad.
