One Month of Low Carb Meatless Mondays

In-Shape | 24 Jan, 2022 | Return|

You’ve probably heard that eating less meat is good for your health—and the environment. You’ve probably even heard of Meatless Mondays – when you dedicate one day a week to eating all vegetarian meals.

It’s actually pretty easy to eat meat-free, but things get tricky when you start watching your carbs. Most people find it easy enough to scramble up a low-carb breakfast and eat a salad for lunch once a week, but finding low-carb meatless dinners the whole family will enjoy? That’s another story. To keep things simple, we’re sharing 5 of our favorite dinner recipes for your first month of Meatless Mondays. Bon Appetit!

 

 

1. Crispy Peanut Tofu Stir-Fry

From Minimalist Baker

Crispy baked tofu meets cauliflower rice in a rich peanut sauce. If you’re short on time, check your grocery store for bags of microwaveable cauliflower rice.

 

2. Crustless Mushroom Spinach Pie

From Sugar-Free Mom

If you have picky eaters at home, don’t even mention the word “meatless” when you serve up this comforting meal. Or…at least don’t mention it until after they ask for seconds.

 

3.  Tempeh Vegan Burrito Bowl

From Live Eat Learn
