  • We aren't vegetarians, but we're having Mexican bean and corn salad (black beans, chopped onion, corn, roasted garlic salsa and cilantro) with cheese quesadillas one night.

  • I don't know that I can provide much in the way of inspiration but here's what I'm planning this week:

    M-rainbow rice and beans and apple cider brussel sprouts ( both from Vegan Yum Yum)  Odd combo but need to eat the brussel sprouts before they go bad

    T- spicy tomato and chickpea soup with grilled cheese for the non-vegans in the house

    W- tostadas (from The Kind Diet) with cheese for the non-vegans  ETA: and mexican rice from the McDougall Quick and Easy cookbook

    Th- black bean soup and my version of fuji apple salad from Panera

    Fri- fried udon noodles with veggies and baked tofu

    Sat- tortellini with tomato sauce for the non-vegans and I'll have leftover something from earlier in the week

    I usually have super casual dinners b/c DH is often not home for dinner. 

  • Our veggie meals this week are:

    black beans and rice (seasoned with onion, garlic, cumin, paprika, black pepper, cayenne pepper and oregano)

    Daahl/ curried red lentils (I add tomatoes and spinach or zucchini and serve with Jasmine rice)

    Homemade pizza

    Now that I've made it, heartily recommend - even DH (the non-veggie) liked it and didn't complain it was meatless.
