Meatless Monday Recipes for Families

The whole Meatless Monday phenomenon has been adapted by people all over the world. Whether you opt to have one meatless meal a week or you are full on vegetarian – Meatless Monday recipes will fit your needs.

However, in the average family household the thought of convincing the kids to eat a plate of vegetables seems a little daunting – if not impossible. So, throw out the over steamed, soggy broccoli and the stinky brussel sprouts and make way for delicious dishes that your entire family is going to love…seriously.

All of our Meatless Monday recipes have been totally kid approved. So, maybe it’s time to give vegetarian recipes a try…if only for one night a week.
