Vegan and Vegetarian Recipes for Lent

This is a slightly updated repost of an old list, reposted in time for Lent. If you're going vegetarian for Lent, hopefully this list will give you a leg up on menu planning.

So, here's the list, separated into vegan, vegetarian and pesco-vegetarian recipes. I've included links to recipes where I have them. (Please note: if the linked recipes include egg substitutes, or low-fat/no-fat cheeses, I recommend using the real things instead.) The starred recipes are our particular favorites here at the Snell house. Remember that a big loaf of bread on the side almost always makes kids cheerful about having veggie soup again. :)
