Vegetarian Lent Fridays

As a Catholic, I do not eat meat on Fridays during Lent.  I wanted to give all of you Catholics out there some great meat free options that are also healthy and simple. Enjoy!

Here are some of my favorites:

Healthified Tuna Salad







Hummus and pita chips with cheese and a big salad







Shrimp and Couscous Stir Fry






Grilled Portobello Burgers and Strawberry Balsamic Salad







Pumpkin Soup






Vegetable Lasagna







Spicy Healthy Alfredo







Skinny Mexican Layer Dip







What are some of your favorite vegetarian meals?

    I am currently working on changing my perspective on food and eating...I LOVE FOOD!

    I also love to cook and while I know a lot about healthy food and nutrition I haven't always practiced what I know. I think your blog is going to be very helpful to me in supporting my current endeavor to be healthier. I really think these recipes look good!

    Thank you!
