A healthy vegetarian meal plan complete with a printable shopping list. This week’s meals focus on winter comfort foods!

Merry Christmas Eve Eve!

Okay, okay, you probably aren’t going to spend tomorrow meal prepping for the week, BUT, just in case you’re trying to keep your meals somewhat normal after the holiday, we still have a healthy vegetarian meal plan for you!

On the menu this week: Cashew Ricotta Stuffed Shells, Farro Salad with Red Onions, Butternut Squash, and Brie, Baked Spaghetti with Kale and Tofu Ricotta, Sweet Potato, Lentil, and Kale Salad with Curry Tahini Dressing, and Guacamole and Black Bean Loaded Sweet Potatoes.

Oh, and don’t forget to whip up a batch of my Soft, Chewy, and Gooey Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies because in spite of how amazing Christmas cookies are, nothing beats a really really ridiculously good chocolate chip cookie! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Have a fun and relaxing holiday! Give hugs and get hugs! I’m sending my love to you and yours!
