30 Minute Meatless Meal Recipes
Just because a meal is meatless, doesn’t mean it is boring! Some of the most popular, and flavor packed meals on our list don’t even have meat. By replacing the protein with a vegetarian alternative like beans, eggs, and legumes, you generally greatly reduce the cooking time which makes for a fast and delicious dinner!
