27 Meatless Mains You (and Your Meat-Eating Friends) Will Love

Going meatless at least once a week is not just a meaningful way to make an impact for the environment, but it’s also a fun way to break up the weeknight dinner routine and get out of your cooking comfort zone. While there’s absolutely nothing wrong with a steady diet of meat and potatoes (those are the meals I grew up on!), consciously setting aside one day a week to cook something new, something meatless, is a simple challenge that all of us are capable of rising to meet—especially with these 27 filling recipes! The hardest part? Deciding which one to make first.
