Eating less meat is crucial for a healthy lifestyle and a healthy planet. The research is clear -- a diet heavy in meat increases the risk of obesity, cancer and heart disease. Whether you're fully vegetarian or just trying to add more meat-free options to your recipe rotation, this book will help.

Included are a wide variety of hearty main dishes, side dishes and soups for beans, rice and potatoes. The recipes are not only for vegetarians but also include recipes for the carnivores in the family. My family loves rice bowls and I have included all our recipe variations for rice bowls. The recipes are designed for taste but also to keep your grocery budget in check.
You can use home cooked beans or canned beans in the recipes. I usually keep cooked beans on hand but I also stock my pantry with canned beans. If you do not keep rice cooked on hand, try instant brown rice. I use instant brown rice often in the recipes.
My family loves french fries. Included are numerous recipes for topping or seasoning your french fries.
Beans and vegetables make great enchiladas, tacos and burritos. I don't always have enchilada sauce on hand so I have included a homemade recipe.
