Meatless Meal Recipes for Lent and Beyond!
During Lent, many of us eat meatless on Fridays. With the heart healthy benefits plant-based meals provide, we may feel inspired to incorporate more meatless meals throughout our week. Not only does it provide an opportunity to explore new flavors and cooking methods, but it's also an excellent way to experiment with aromatic herbs and diverse cooking techniques. With a little creativity, we can make meals packed with whole food plant-based protein, and without processed faux meat products, that are just as delectable as any meat dish. So let's break away from the mundane meaty menu and explore the vast array of plant protein sources available to us!
