Hi guys! I’m super excited about this post. I’ve been combing the web for the very best in quick, plant-based dinners. A lot of people are under the impression that eating healthy has to be a time consuming ordeal. While it does take more effort to prepare an actual meal than it does to stop at fast food, or pop in a TV dinner, the benefits are so worth it! This collection of recipes from some very talented food bloggers will help you put some amazing, healthy food on your table this week, in 45 minutes or less. Your body, your family, and your wallet will thank you! Another bonus to making dinner at home, is that sometimes you have leftovers for lunch the next day! Yay! Most of these recipes are naturally gluten free, and if not they have gluten free options. My mission with this blog is to help as many people as I can, to learn to eat healthfully and to feel supported when making a dietary transition. If you have any questions about anything you see here, please reach out and I will do my best to help you. Let’s dive in!

1. Stuffed Summer Squash

This recipe recently appeared on my blog, and it is one of my very favorite quick and easy meals. If you can’t get Summer Squash, or if you’d rather, this recipe works with zucchini or bell peppers!

I would recommend making these ASAP! Schar Bakery has amazing little, gluten-free, ciabatta rolls that would work great for this recipe!

18. Vegan Bibimbap

‘Bibimbap’ is a Korean word for ‘mixed rice’, and in this case, the rice is mixed with a lot of yummy stuff! Tofu, veggies, and spices to be more specific.

Make this, and then you can impress your friends when they ask you what you’re eating, and you just say ‘bibimbap’, like ‘you don’t even eat bibimbap?’

19. Thai Peanut Tofu Salad Tacos

20. Vegan Mushroom Philly Cheese Sandwich

OMG! Really, it’s hard to believe that with so many incredible recipes out there (like this one!) that anyone would think that eating plant based meals is hard, or makes you feel deprived! Make the Gluten Free version of this by omitting the seitan and using all mushrooms, and serving on GF bread or wrapped in greens or GF tortillas like a wrap!
