Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plans- an entire week of quick, easy and nutritious meals that the whole family will love! (with vegan and gluten-free options)

Is anyone else in denial that it’s going to be AUGUST in two days?!

Or that I have a 3 MONTH OLD?!

How has this happened. I have no words.

This was our first full week with our nanny and everything went super smoothly! If you don’t count me being an emotional mess and wanting to snuggle my child every second that we were together.

Normal? Normal.

Onto the food. This week’s meal plan embraces summer veggies to the max in about a gazillion different ways! Your palate will not be bored with all the different flavors we have in store for you. Good on so many levels.

Prep Ahead Tip: Cook the rice up and/or pre-chop the vegetables and store them in an airtight container for up to two days om advance.
