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

Hoooowdy ho!

How’re you holding up this holiday season? Mine has been pretty chill on account of my crowd avoidance skills, online shopping, and keeping calm with my yoga breaths. Meal planning this week will be particularly useful for me, since there will be lots of moving parts in planning my family’s holiday feast, lots of Christmas cookie temptation, and lots of winter chill to warm up via healthy comfort food. You on board? Food this week consists of loaded baked sweet potatoes, sumac-spiced spaghetti squash, kale power salad, vegetarian ramen, and white bean and cabbage soup.

Have a great weekend!
