First and foremost, hello! It has been ages since I’ve pulled together anything more than a handful of mental notes on “what it would be nice to eat this week” and this meal plan is long overdue. We will be taking advantage of our CSA stash this week which has filled our fridge with greens, and greens, and more greens.
I’m sure many of you are trying to get back to healthier fare in your day-to-day meals and I hope the following list of vegetarian meal ideas inspires you to at the very least get some more veggies and whole grains into the mix.

I saw that cookbook while shopping last week and have been lusting for it since! It looked so interesting. Can’t wait to hear what you think about it!
it is pretty fantastic and surprisingly pantry friendly. was able to pull together meals from it from day one without a trip to the grocery store!
