Plantain Wraps with Tangy Black Bean Spread
No matter what season it is, adding Caribbean flavor to your meal can spice up any diet. Caribbean dishes are usually meat-based but this one is strictly vegan.
Add Black Bean Spread as well.
Mini Veggie Burgers
Mini burgers are perfect for lunch especially when they are made of homemade beans and amaranth, a gluten-free grain packed with protein that has twice as much iron as wheat. So who needs beef anyway?
Vegetable Stromboli
The classic Italian Stromboli got a face-lift, or more like a health lift. Instead of meat and cheese this recipe has a filling of tasty grilled veggies.
