Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plan – 5.24.19

Happy Memorial Day weekend!! Hope you’re out in the sun, wearing good sunscreen, eating ice cream, etc. It’s supposed to get to NINETY DEGREES here on Sunday, which sounds alternately disgusting and amazing. Fingers crossed they turn the sprinklers on at the kiddie parks, because this mama is going to need it. ALSO fingers crossed that a lot of people will be leaving town for the weekend and so the hospital will be less busy. I’m working the night admitting shift all weekend long and it would be SUPER if I could have some down time to sleep. We’ll see.

I’m sure you’ve all got your bbq plans figured out, but here’s some other fabulous summery inspiration for the week!

• • vegan mediterranean chickpea “meat”balls – pass me a big bowl.
  • make ahead bean burritos – would love these for easy breakfasts
  • red curry zucchini noodle bowls – sluuurrrppp!
  • vegan power mac and cheese – hi. yes please.
  • greek super grains salad – to end the week on a healthy note!!

Happy eating!
