Easy vegetarian meal plan with comfort dishes that can be prepped in 15 minutes or less (except the enchiladas, which take 20 minutes of prepping). This week's dinners star cauliflower, sweet potatoes, and 3 kinds of legumes. The first few years after I graduated from culinary school, I veered towards more complicated recipes. I wanted to have some fun with all this new knowledge I now had. I still love to bake, especially breads. But for our weekly dinner? I look for something easy and ...
Delicata Squash and Apple Galette
Vegetarian This addictive delicata squash and apple galette appetizer is quick to prep, and ideal warm, fresh from the oven. Delicata squash is worth looking for, as the skin is thin enough not to require peeling before roasting and eating. As I've often written, I'm appetizer challenged.

Vegetarian Meal Plan – Week 7
The Importance of Making a Meal Plan Confession, I didn't really cook much this summer. I ate, to be sure, but didn't plan a lot of meals.

I went to the Farmer's Market starting about a month ago, finally a step in the right direction. Every Thursday, off I trotted, and it was one of the ...
