First Full Day of Vegetarian Meals!

First of all...to answer all questions...we are not becoming full fledge vegetarians.

We (mostly me) have decided to have one full day a week with no meat!

I decided this a little while ago, but we are finally getting around to it!

So here is what we have had today...

Breakfast: Honey Wheat Banana Pancakes with Apple Juice

Lunch: Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches with an orange

Snacks: Chips with Guacamole (yum!)

Dinner: Tortilla and Black Bean Pie

They were all such simple meals and still very good and filling.

So all in all...it was a satisfying and successful first vegetarian day!

I am sure there are a lot of yummy vegan meals out there but are there any yummy meat-free meals I am missing out on that you are aware of?!
