Meatless Monday: Spinach Puffs

August 29, 2011 by Briana Carter

Meatless Mondays is a weekly feature which will showcase some of my hits and probably misses with living a meatless life. Many of you know I stopped eating meat about a year ago for personal reasons. While, I haven’t had any desire to go back to eating meat, it has been a struggle to find healthy foods to eat.

Everywhere you go, meat is the main dish. Since I was new to this lifestyle, it led me to eating unhealthy options. I’m on a path now to cook healthier options at home without meat. While going meatless is a personal choice for me, you can still save money by having one meatless meal a week.

Will you join me on this journey by preparing one meatless dish every week?

Post Dinner Analysis

These were a tasty little snack. I wouldn’t consider this a full dinner but the kids seemed to enjoy the ones I made with pepperoni.

Freezer Friendly

Freeze after cooking.

Meat it Up

Add pepperoni.

Vegan Option

Use vegan cheese.

      Sorry I cooked at 350. Though, I think 375 would work too! :)

    anyone done this with something other than pepperoni? I would like to put a meat in it, but not pepperoni (my son doesn’t really like it)

    TIA!

      I would think sausage would be fine too or even ham!

    Do you think this would work using whole wheat flour? Not sure about the taste aspect.
