70 CommentsWe took pleasure in a warm and sunny weekend here in Kansas City, but we’re anticipating more snow tomorrow. I’m sharing some veggie-packed comfort food recipes to help carry us through to springtime.I find that the most enjoyable way to consume well throughout brief winter days is to focus on loading up on vegetables, rather than denying myself the tacky, carb-heavy meals that I’m craving. Here are 29 scrumptious suppers that are lightened up with fresh and healthy active ingredients. Sneaky!Want to add a side salad to any of the following? For the meals with an Asian spin, attempt my carrot-ginger dressing. For the others, attempt my green goddess dressing, velvety sunlight (honey mustard) dressing or perhaps a basic vinaigrette.1) Black Bean Sweet Potato Enchiladas” Yet another winner! My husband stated, why do we even ever eat meat when vegetarian tastes like this?”– Karen2) Pasta e Fagioli (Italian Pasta and Beans)” This soup is awesome, really flavourful, tastes just like it’s come out of an expensive Italian dining establishment cooking area. Certainly making again!”– Joanne3) Extra Veggie Fried Rice” With more mouths to feed than normal over the holidays, I made this twice in the last 10 days!

I’m going to make it once again tomorrow night and the best part is I currently have practically all of the active ingredients on hand!”– Allison6) Thai Red Curry with Veggies” This meal was delicious!!! I have actually been craving Thai food, and after making this dish, my craving was pleased. The kids enjoyed it too !! I constantly enjoy making your dishes. Can’t wait till 2017 for the cookbook!!”– Reese7) Kale Pesto Pizza” This was tasty! I had a lot of child Tuscan Kale from my CSA to consume.

Thank you.”– Angela8) Broccoli, Cheddar & Quinoa Gratin” I have actually made this 3 times now and I think I enjoy it more each time I make it! Thank you for such an incredible dish– this delicious casserole has ended up being a routine supper at my home. And I like the picture of Cookie eating the broccoli stem– my pet dog loves it too! Eagerly anticipating attempting more of your dishes.”– Sara9) Roasted Butternut Squash Risotto” This is rather possibly the very best dish I’ve made this year! I’
