Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plans- weekly recipes with prep ahead tips, vegan/GF substitutions, and a color-coded shopping list!

 

Weekend, weekend weekend end! <- a free little Saturday ditty for you. Yeeer welcome.

What’s up this weekend? ย I’ll be working on some recipes I wasn’t able to get to during the week, but no bother – they’re of the comforting//carb varietal, which always puts a smile on this ginger’s face. Other than cooking and baking? My pantry needs a reorg like last year! You should see the status of it…except you shouldn’t…you’d cover your eyes with shame and walk away. Other than the pantry reorg? Perchance some mountain biking. What are you doing? Meal planning? Bathing in that Kabocha Squash Casserole I showed you earlier in the week? Conferring with your momma about your upcoming Thanksgiving menu? I want me some infos. Spare no deets.

FOOD. This week’s a proper doozy. In the best of ways. We start with this amazing wild rice mushroom soup from Making Thyme for Health that happens to be vegan and makes my mouth water every time I catch a glimpse of the photo, then we move onto enchiladas, because cheese is the best way of dealing with Tuesday, IMO. Wednesday? We do a harvest veggie couscous situation to get ye some vitamins, Thursday, chickpea salad sammies because lunch for dinner is BOMB, and finally, Friday, we go ethnic with some Thai quinoa fried rice. Questions? Comments? Concerns? Need a vat of Irish coffee to go along with your foods?

Eat up, m’dears!
