60+ Vegetarian Meals That Aren't Pasta
Eating vegetarian often means boiling some pasta, sautéing veggies, and topping with parmesan cheese. There's obviously nothing wrong with that, but it can be so easy to fall into a dinner rut that you forget what vegetarian possibilities are out there (and not just salad!). From soups to grain bowls to tacos and more, these recipes prove there's way more out there for the vegetarian than pasta.
