| Dear Friends,
The kitchen might seem like a daunting place, with many of us on a new cooking budget and meat shortages potentially on the horizon. Luckily, you don't need meat to make a satisfying meal. I actually cook meatless most of the time! These vegetarian recipes will satisfy the stomach as well as the pocketbook. Looking for more economical recipes?

In her honor, I whipped up a recipe for her favorite Italian dish–spaghetti al pomodoro– which she ate at least once a week. It's inexpensive and delicious! Serve this for dinner and enjoy your own little Roman Holiday.

This recipe is my own version of a salad I enjoy at a local smoothie cafe - super simple, but surprisingly filling! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Use them in any recipe that calls for canned. TUTORIAL AND VIDEO HERE or PIN IT for later.
| |  | | QUINOA BLACK BEAN BURRITO BOWLS - These Quinoa Black Bean Burrito Bowls are like a deconstructed burrito. I've replaced rice with cilantro lime quinoa to add protein and nutrients. Black beans are simmered with onions, garlic, and spices for added flavor. I have listed several optional toppings, so you can make this bowl all your own.
