Meatless Sunday – 12/18/16

Chickpeas, pasta, and vegetables – 8/31/16

Wait, didn’t I just make this? Yes, but it is so delicious and vegan besides! Anyway, it has different vegetables in it so the taste is a little different. I could eat this every week and I guess I do!

August 27, 2016 – Fast Pad Thai with Shrimp
