I love veggie meals. Everyone else that lives here, not so much.
I going to give this a try sometime. Thanks for posting.
This sounds good but being a meat lover do you think ground turkey or ground chicken would work with these ingredients?
Linda – I’m not sure. Remember, Hubs is a meat lover too and was SURPRISED how good and filling these were after he had them the first time. I’m serious when I say, he requests them monthly. In fact he was reading the blog yesterday and asked “When are we having these?”
We have lots of meatless meals. Tonight we had lentil tacos. Yesterday we had rice and bean burritos, and tomorrow we’re having black bean burgers (and pasta e fagioli the next day!).
