    If you want something delicious, put together a mezze plate with falafel, hummus, baba, tabouli, dolmas, olives, maybe a hunk of feta cheese.

    If you want something less delicious but still good, make a big salad with tofu, boiled eggs, and/or chickpeas for protein, or spaghetti with vegetarian meatballs (Trader Joes has 'em), or just a good old veggie burger with baked beans on the side.

    Yes... All of this!!

    I'm a bit bad, but I keep frozen fish in my freezer. Pop 1-2 in the oven for lunch or dinner.

    Tostadas!

    I spray a corn tortilla with Pam cooking spray and bake it on a baking sheet at 350 until it is crispy. Add refried beans, lettuce, tomato, salsa (I put parmesan cheese on mine) It's fast, easy and good :) Happy Friday!

    I'm having grilled salmon, steamed snow peas and rice. DH jokes that it puts a new meaning to the words "lenten penance".

    Lentil tacos, black bean enchiladas, or lentil meatballs are all super tastey. We put these in our rotation frequently because I can fool my meat loving teens and so with them.

    No, it's a Jersey thing, too.. I thin it's just an "Italian" thing (Obviously I am Italian).
