5 Vegetarian Recipes to Take Meatless Mondays up a Notch
Cast iron goes perfectly with your favorite five-a-day. Whether you don’t eat meat or are simply looking to add more meatless dishes to your weekly rotation, check out our favorite vegetarian recipes and get even more servings of big, bold, flavor-packed vegetables.
1. Skillet Cauliflower Feta Pizza
Cauliflower and pizza are having a bit of a romance at the moment, and this pizza puts cauli front and center as a topping. Roasted cauliflower packs a sweet and mellow flavor, accented with bright feta and red pepper.
2. Butternut Lasagna
Lasagna has always been an ideal vehicle for veggies, but we took it one step further and layered in thinly sliced squash, nestled among noodles and fresh pesto. Add spinach to your pesto for an additional punch of veg.
3. Chai Pani Daal
This warming and flavorful lentil dish is a daily staple in India. Bonus: it’s also vegan. Serve this spiced dish on its own or with a side of rice, bread, or grilled vegetables. Daal is one of those dishes that tastes even better with time, so look forward to leftovers.
4. Cornbread Avocado Toast
We took Instagram’s favorite dish and made it more cast-iron friendly. A quick cornbread gets topped with a tangy cilantro and yogurt crema, sliced avocados, and pink pickled onions. Take a picture quickly, though: these toasts tend to disappear fast.
5. Winter Root Vegetable Chili
This wintry chilli is a vegetable party in every bite. We layer delicious root vegetables like parsnips, carrots, and sweet potatoes, with bell peppers and fiery tomatoes (plus filling hominy and beans) to create a rich, vegan chilli anyone can enjoy.
