Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plan 03.26.2017

This week’s healthy vegetarian meal plan includes a mix of light springy meals as well as a couple comfort foods to ease you out of winter. Enjoy!

Hello, hiya, happy Saturday!

This week, we have all sorts of spring-inspired meals using that fresh, vibrant produce you’re seeing roll in to your grocery stores. We kick off the week with a mango, wheatberry, and arugula salad with a super delish cilantro lime vinaigrette, followed by a creamy power salad with cilantro lime dressing, crispy black bean tacos with mango pico de gallo, creamy polenta with sauteed peppers, and portobello steaks with pesto aioli.

Weekend plans? There’s new snow in the mountains, but my partner in ski crime is leaving town to dirt bike, so I’ll be going to hot pilates, reading about my guts, doing a little work, and eating pints of Halo Top like no one is watching (peanut butter cup is life!). Have a great weekend!
