It’s still important to eat the right balance of healthy foods and to limit your intake of unhealthy foods. Here is this week’s Meatless Monday Recipes and Meal Plan – Enjoy!
Apple Date Oat Muffins: Breakfast
Oats, sunflower seeds and applesauce make a delightful moist-crunchy contrast in these apple pastries. Brown sugar, whole-wheat flour, apples and dates give these muffins a dark, smoky sweetness which pairs well when served with coffee.
Roasted Pepper Lentil Lemon Salad: Lunch
Red bell peppers are roasted sweet and soft before they are tossed with French lentils, carrots, onion and celery. This bright, refreshing salad dresses the medley of lentils and veggies with tart Dijon lemon vinaigrette.
