a veg life

(posted by Emily) It's that time of year again..... The time where I don't really have a lot of great food ideas, and the lunches and dinners we are eating get a little repetitive.

Black Bean and Avocado Enchiladas via Brazilian Beans and Rice via Vegan Lasagna via Curried Tempeh Lettuce Wraps via Falafel Bowls (adapted from this recipe ) Jennie's White Beans and Greens Soup via Black Bean, Sweet Potato, and Quinoa Stuffed Bell Peppers via Mango and Avocado Summer Rolls via Have you tried any of these before? Looking forward to trying something new? Let us know what you think! --E&R
