Meatless Lent Recipes – delicious meals you’ll love!

Taking you beyond the plain pizza and fish fry I’m sharing with you some of my most beloved and popular meatless Lent recipes! 

Growing up Catholic, meatless Fridays during Lent was most strictly adhered to. HOWEVER… one can only consume so much grilled cheese, tuna casserole (hot/cold) and plain cheese pizza. Mom was, that respect, a creature of habit. Don’t get me wrong, she made a killer tuna casserole (to which I still make today) and pizza, with any topping, rocks (well okay.. maybe not olives – I hate olives) but still, I like a variety. So today I’ve put together some of my most popular and favorite meatless recipes that are perfect not only for Lent but for any day of the week!
