Weekly meal-planning is working well, even if it doesn’t always work out exactly the way I plan it. All of these meals are vegan, vegetarian, or flexitarian. All of them are made with clean, unprocessed ingredients.
Monday: homemade pizza with GF-crust, maybe cheese-less like this one (pushed over from last week)
Tuesday: TLT sandwich
Wednesday: grilled salmon with heirloom tomatoes, avocado, goat cheese salad
Thursday: grilled veggie pizza
Friday:quesadillas with portobello mushrooms and scallions (also pushed back from last week.)
I am linking this post to Menu-Planning Monday at Organizing Junkie, as well as Chive Talkin’. Each of these blogs have countless ideas for recipes and weekly menus.
Do you have a favorite vegan, vegetarian, or flexitarian recipe that I should know about?

I’m hoping to post a fresh fruit pie recipe this week, but don’t hold your breath I’m terrible at posting recipes. Your menu sounds so sunny and summery. I’m drowning in gray skies and rain here, blah…
Hmm, I like looking at your week and am very jealous that you have trained your kids so well to eat this food with you
no but that 101 cookbooks is so good. I made peanut butter cookies last week from there - they were so good (vegan). oh, i guess i did have a recipe after all. And, you have come so far in your weekly plans - this weeks looks so nutritious and yummy!
Sounds like a yummy week! We’re heading to the farmer’s market in a little bit so I’m sure whatever we find will find it’s way into our meals this week. One of our newer favs is falafel pita pockets, they’re made with garbanzo beans and all sorts of yummy things. But I have no clue where I found the recipe….
Now that sandwich looks sensational!
No recipe ideas to share, but thanks to your post last week I found the Super Natural Cookbook at our library and am LOVING it. My kids are excited about the hedgehog potatoes. The TLT looks yummy!
Hey! Wow! Great week! Love the quesadillas - hope you get to them this week. That happens but isn’t it great to have a plan? And, we both are having my favorite fish - salmon and grilled! Thanks again for joining in the Menu Plan Blog Roll at http://blog.chivetalkin.com I love having you! It is my desire to have a blog roll of flexitarian, vegetarian, vegan, seasonal, local, menu plans to inspire health in others. See you next week! Cheers!

Ummm…pie. DH and I didn’t have the traditional wedding cake at our wedding — we had fresh pie a la mode.
@ RML~
The recipes aren’t always 100% successful with the kids. I keep trying, though.
@ Denise~
Yum. If I can’t find that pb cookie recipe on my own, I’m going to have to get the link from you!
@ Gina~
I haven’t had such good luck with falafal recipes — maybe yours is The One.
@ Sami~
Doesn’t it look so good?! I’ll let you know how good once we have it…
@ Kelly~
Yay! I don’t have the cookbook myself, but now you’ve inspired me to go find it in the library.
@ Jenna~
We used to have salmon all the time — DH used to catch them in the ocean. Alas, he sold his boat and now we actually have to “buy” salmon from a store! : (
Yum, great salmon night. I imagine the fresh-caught salmon was incredible! Haven’t had mushroom quesadillas, but that sounds good — what type of cheese do you use?
@ Amy~
The salmon was delish. As for cheese in the quesadillas, I use a mixture of mozzarella and cheddar cheese — “Veggie Shreds” is the brand. It’s not dairy…I think it’s soy-based, but I’ll have to check.
I LOVE the 101 cookbooks site - she has soooo many amazing things. In my next life, I want her job
Fantastic menu plan! I want to know what you thought of the TLT sandwiches. I haven’t braved tempeh yet.
