Vegetarian Pot Pie (pictured at top)
This pot pie is filled with a delightful tofu-vegetable mixture and topped with lightly buttered and toasted potato bread.
Filled with a rainbow of vegetables including fennel, Japanese eggplant, shiitake mushrooms, artichokes and string beans, this paella is a great way to introduce all kinds of fun vegetables to your family.
Walnuts, tofu, mushrooms, eggplant, wheat germ, oats and herbs are blended together to give you a flavorful meatloaf packed with whole grains, protein and tons of veggies.
Have extra beans in your pantry? Toss them together, along with some staples, like red wine vinegar, garlic, chili powder and crushed roasted tomatoes, to get a quick and easy 30-minute meal. Serve over brown rice for a meal that provides all your essential amino acids.
Lentils, walnuts and Parmesan cheese create delicious flavor in these meat-free meatballs. Serve with a basil-spinach pesto over whole-grain pasta for a complete meal.
As much as you may love cooking, the hustle and bustle of weeknights makes it tough to spend hours in the kitchen. These simple grilled cheese sandwiches are a great way to end the day when paired with a homemade tomato soup (which could be made in advance).
Before you start perusing the frozen burrito aisle, make your own and store them in the freezer. You can even teach your kids how to defrost them in the microwave and let them make dinner for you!
