I’ve always considered myself a carnivore, but lately I’ve been craving veggie-packed meals. I used to think that protein sources such as chicken, steak and turkey were the only things that would keep me full for a long period of time, but I recently realized how wrong I was. I love the way I feel after I eat a hearty vegetarian meal, so I’ve been on a quest to find more yummy protein-packed vegetarian recipes. While I don’t plan to become a vegetarian any time soon, right now I am really enjoying trying different vegan and vegetarian recipes.
I know lots of you are also trying to incorporate more vegetables into your diet, so I’ve put together a list of meatless meals that will fill you up! These recipes, created by an awesome group of healthy food bloggers, all contain short, simple ingredient lists because who has the time to search through grocery store aisles for unusual ingredients!?
Enjoy!
