There are many different buzz words that explain this phenomenon: flexitarian, semi-vegetarian, and week day vegetarian; where you only eat meat on the week-ends. But anyway you want to say it, you are cutting back on the meat you eat. Some do it for health reasons, animal rights, the environment or all of the above!

Jerk Seasoning

Ingredients

* 2 tablespoons onion powder
* 1 tablespoons sugar
* 1 tablespoon salt
* 1 tablespoon ground thyme
*  1 tablespoon ginger
* 1 1/2 teaspoons ground all-spice
* 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
* 3/4 teaspoon ground red pepper

Mix together place in jar.  Can be used as a rub or just to add some favor to your dishes.

The girls don't like anything too spicy so I just use it to spice up some things. Tech on the other hand likes it (he says it ok... but he isn't picky!) and adds extra on top! Most of my guys friends (Tech too!)  like things burn your mouth make you shoot fire when you exhale HOT said this wasn't very hot.  So if you like it very hot add more red pepper or add some Scotch bonnet or habanero peppers, crushed. When using on meat or to spice up veggies.
