Here’s this week’s vegetarian meal plan:
Monday
Portabella Mushroom Fajitas // Hearty portabella mushroom strips make the perfect savory filling for these meatless fajitas.
Tuesday
Indian Curried Cauliflower & Chickpea Burritos // Coconut basmati rice and Indian-spiced chickpeas and veggies are served wrapped up in warm tortillas to make these flavorful burritos.
Wednesday
Mushroom Cannellini Bean Patty Melts // If you're a fan of both veggie burgers and grilled cheese sandwiches, then you'll love these vegetarian patty melts.
Thursday
Southwestern Style Quiche with Quinoa Crust // Classic quiche gets an upgrade with a gluten-free quinoa crust, hearty black beans, and southwestern spices.
Friday
Savory Waffles with Roasted Broccoli and Cauliflower // Wrap up the week with these waffles as a savory breakfast-for-dinner.

Tips for This Week’s Vegetarian Meal Plan
- Save time on Thursday's quiche by making the crust in advance.
- If you have some leftover cilantro after making Monday's fajitas and Tuesday's burritos, use it as a topper for Thursday's quiche.
- You can also save some time on Wednesday's patty melts by making the patties ahead of time.
- If you buy a dozen eggs you should have three left by Friday. Scramble them up and serve them alongside the savory waffles.
- Friday's waffles call for cheddar cheese, but since you're already buying pepperjack for Thursday's quiche, you can use that instead. If you prefer cheddar, add it to the list.
