Here are my newly updated, Vegetarian Dinner Recipes (for Fall) to help us all get in the spirit of the season. I love the gradual shift from summer into fall, especially in the kitchen. The quality of the light changes and there is a beautiful coziness that comes with simply turning the oven back on after the summer break, warming the whole house and infusing it with goodness.
Take a look and find some inspiration, and pick out a couple to try this week! If shifting to a more plant-based diet, this is a good place to start. You won’t miss the meat- these vegetarian dinner ideas are so cozy and comforting!
Let me know your favorites in the comments below! Happy cooking.
Bust out those beautiful winter squash, fall mushrooms & earthy root vegetables and let’s get cooking! Many of the vegetarian dinners you’ll find here are simple and easy- and many are vegan adaptable!
All are hearty and satisfying – meaning, your family won’t miss the meat! 😉 They are also quite grounding on the soul level -at least that is how it feels to me when cooking with root vegetables that grow from the deep rich earth.
