Evergreen Healthy Vegetarian Association (EHVA) 

Origin:

The purpose of vegetarian diet has now expanded beyond religious reasons to include consideration of health and nutrition, and has currently made the vegetarian diet a major trend worldwide. Evergreen Health Vegetarian Association seeks to promote a healthy attitude toward daily diet: breakfast should be plentiful and diverse, lunch should consist of one main protein item, and dinner should be small, consisting of lightly flavored vegetarian dishes. Because the proper preparation of vegetarian cuisine requires techniques that are difficult to many, EHVA  members have established  the mission of developing and promoting nutritious, healthful and gourmet yet easy-to-prepare vegetarian cuisine.

Objective:

Evergreen Healthy Vegetarian Association is a non-profit organization. Our mission is to develop nutritious, healthy and delicious vegetarian dishes, to provide correct concepts of a healthy balanced diet, to enhance the exchange between western and eastern diets, and to promote the quality of life. We will promote healthy vegetarianism by the following ways:
  • Develop and practice the requirements of being a healthy vegetarian.  We will design recipes intended for the general public, as well as specialized ones made for minority groups or those with special needs, such as seniors, children and the handicapped.
  • Offer cooking classes. We will teach the idea of healthy vegetarianism.
  • Hold annual promotion activities and diet education workshops for interested communities.
  • Always follow these four guidelines in developing vegetarian cuisine:
    • Balanced nutrition--includes proteins, fats, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, etc.; uses limited quantities of salt, sugar and oil of good quality.
    • Fresh and natural ingredients--use only natural ingredients and avoids artificial preservatives and flavorings.
    • Clear instructions--anyone can prepare delicious vegetarian cuisine by following the recipes.
    • Simple and inexpensive--fits any family's budget.
EHVA promotes healthy vegetarianism without consideration of race, nationality, religion, political affiliation, gender, etc.
