Yum

Here's the 3rd item in the series of vegetarian dishes I've brought to you this week.

Please check out my previous 2 items, Orzo Black Bean Salad, and the Feta Chopped Salad.  Both are amazing and go together so well.  


The dishes are all vegetarian and they are all from a new book I got called, "Forest Feast Gatherings: Simple Vegetarian Menus for Hosting Friends & Family", by Erin Gleeson.  What a fabulous book!


She has colorful illustrations throughout the book accompanied by simple vegetarian recipes that anyone can make.  I truly love the layout of this book.  Her recipes are simple and easy to follow and the food is fabulous.  


You don't have to be a vegetarian to eat these dishes.  They are wonderful, filling, and will be enjoyed by all!

Today's dish ties the other two together.  It's a wonderful wrap!

PESTO CUCUMBER WRAPS

Crisp, cooling cucumber spears are wrapped in a pesto, cream cheese dressed spinach wrap.  Oh man is this good!  It's a veggie sandwich that's light, yet filling and it goes perfectly with the two salads.  

What fun is it to eat a wrap!  Kids love them, and you will too. They are the perfect lunch, dinner, or treat.  This can be made slightly ahead of time and wrapped up, kept in the refrigerator until served.  


These are super easy to pull together.  No special equipment is necessary.  Just make, grab and go!  Don't forget the two salads up above that go perfectly and make an entire meal.

I hope you enjoyed these vegetarian dishes, and decide to make them yourself.  

Enjoy!
