Thanks for the post. It's just a good example that it's not a must to take meat for protein. But we should remember that animal proteins contain certain elements that veg proteins can't provide. Like important amino acids. You can read more about it in the following link. http://blog.deliciousdietsdesign.com/

@Michele Foley Thanks for the tip! I definitely am not a fan of garlicky dishes, so I'll probably cut it down to one large clove.

@Jenny Sugar I made the avocado pasta last night — so good! I might suggest adding less garlic than the recipe calls for. I used three large cloves and it was almost too much to stand!

I'm a vegetarian and can't believe I've never tried the avocado pasta. Yum! I know what I'm making for dinner tonight. I'll add some cannellini beans and it'll really up the protein!
