With summer in full swing, there is so much amazing produce around that I cannot resist vegetarian, or at least vegetable-forward, meals at all times. It might be a foreign concept to some, but when you move beyond the "vegetablesaregoodformemusteatthem" to really embracing the myriad tastes, textures, and flavors that they can produce, you'll find that you hardly miss the protein. Worried about nutrition when doing so? Truth is, Americans eat FAR more protein than we really need. That whole "protein at every meal" is a fallacy... and also not dependent on meats. Enjoy nuts, quinoa, and more for other more environmentally and healthful ways of filling up!
