The Humane Table: Cooking with Compassion

Delicious recipes for home chefs who are mindful about the welfare of animals.

Now, more than ever, people are conscious of where their food comes from. Individuals want to support farmers and ranchers who do things right and care deeply about the well-being of their animals. In line with this holistic approach, Dr. Robin Ganzert, President and CEO of American Humane Society, America’s first national humane organization, has compiled mouthwatering recipes featuring ingredients raised with care produced by farmers and ranchers that are American Humane Certified™.

The recipes are constructed around the seasons — summer, fall, winter and spring — so that whether a home chef is simmering a stew on a cold night or grilling out under balmy skies, they can set a humane table year-round.

Compassion and love are the ingredients for the Humane Table, a table where American Humane Society’s shared values of treating animals with kindness, respect and dignity are truly celebrated. The Humane Table is for home chefs and readers who hold these same principles.
