Many of the teachers at Nik’s school have decided to eat vegetarian for a whole week, celebrating US VegWeek 2013.

From their website:

Now in its fifth year, US VegWeek (April 22-28) is a fun way to explore a wide variety of meat-free foods and discover the many benefits of vegetarian eating—for our health, the planet, and animals.

We’re joining in too and I thought I’d post some of our favorite vegetarian recipes in case anyone out there might be looking for ideas for how to cook vegetarian.

We try to eat vegetarian meals 3-4 days a week year-round so it won’t be too hard for us to go all veg this week.  If you’re used to eating meat every day and don’t want to go all veg for a whole week, maybe you could try “Meatless Monday” or just choose one other day of the week!

Be on the lookout for lots of recipes this week!
