200 plant-forward recipes for the modern-day omnivore looking to eat less meat

Vegetables take center stage in globally inspired healthy plates, perfect for anyone following a Mediterranean diet

Attention plant-curious cooks, semi-vegetarians, even conflicted carnivores--anyone with a motive to eat less meat. This vibrant collection fills a needed middle ground with meals that center vegetables while keeping meat on the table in a smaller and occasional--but still satisfying--role. (About half the recipes include meat in some form.)

• Green Up Comfort Favorites: Swiss Chard Enchiladas, Chicken and Parsnip Shawarma, and Thai Green Curry with Butternut Squash and Kale layer in vegetables and give dinner a new look.
• Mostly Meatless Meatballs, Blended Burgers We grind mushrooms with beef for umami-rich burgers that drip with savory juices, and rethink meatballs, too. One bite and you won't want to go back to the originals.

• Vegetables at the Center (with a Little Meat): Reimagine roast chicken as a veggie-filled sheet pan dinner. Embrace anchovies, pancetta, and chorizo to add savor to almost anything. Customize a balanced grain or noodle bowl with meaty add-ins.

• Protein-Packed Meatless Mainstays: Greek Gigantes Plaki, Tofu Katsu Sandwiches, Bean Bourguignon, and Loaded Sweet Potato Wedges offer hearty, plant-based satisfaction.
• Mediterranean Diet Friendly: Anyone following the nutritional parameters of a Mediterranean diet will find plenty to fill their plate.

Flip traditional ratios to make roast sweet potatoes with a side of chicken; or lentil and beef tacos. Embrace techniques for using meat as a seasoning (cue umami boosters). And invigorate your cooking with flavors and styles inspired by cuisines the world over. If you are lowering your meat consumption, these recipes offer a sustainable, gradual, and pleasurable way of doing it.
