Welcome to Midnight Maniac Meatless Mondays {MMMM}!
MMMM is a weekly carnival dedicated to those interested in improving their personal health and the health of the planet by reducing meat consumption one day a week. Every Monday you have a chance to feature a link to something meatless. It doesn’t have to be a recipe {although that would be nice}, it can be a picture of a meatless meal you ate that week, an interesting article you read about meat consumption, a post on your blog about going meatless, perhaps a post on someone else’s blog you found helpful {ask permission first!}, anything Meatless Monday appropriate.
Some standouts from last week are:
Blueberry Buckle from Create With Joy
I actually made this using cranberries in place of blueberries and have been enjoying it all week.
Lentil Vegetable Soup from Family, Stamping and FOOD
One of these days I will get around to using lentils. Perhaps with this recipe – it looks so good!
Yorkshire Puddings from The Life & Times of the 21st Century Housewife
I love it when people take what are believed to be traditional meat dishes and adapt them for Meatless Monday.
What wonders will you come up with this week?
Here’s how it works.
Choose something meatless you would like to feature for the week. A Meatless Monday post on your own blog would be ideal. {Just so you know, your meatless meal doesn’t have to be on a Monday. That’s just the day I chose to feature them.} Come back to Midnight Maniac every Monday and add your link to the linky box below. The linky box features thumbnails with your link, so be prepared to add a picture. Just follow the prompts – it’s easy!
If you’re featuring a post from your own blog help spread the word by linking back to this {http://midnightmaniac.com/post1852} Midnight Maniac Meatless Mondays post. You can also grab the button below:

Thank you so much for featuring my Yorkshire puddings! They would be delicious with the lentil soup, that is for sure. Thanks so much for hosting, and have a great week!

Your welcome, April.
I think they would be delicious with the vegetarian stew that you posted this week. So much so that both are going on our menu this week. Thanks for sharing!

How is pizza with a side of slaw?
Good to see you growing in meatless recipes. The more we have, the more choices we have. I am learning to love new foods.

I have to say I have never had the two together, but I like them both so I’d say perfect.
Thanks for coming over and linking up, Chaya!

I love meatless mondays! Just found you at From Apples to Zucchini and I love your blog — and just started following your RSS feed! I’ll hope to have a meatless Monday entry for you next week.
Also, five-spice powder varies depending on the manufacturer, but I found mine at Krogers. It’s awesome for Asian cooking

Welcome Erin!
I love new readers. Especially ones who love Meatless Monday. I’ll be watching for your recipe link up next week!
Thanks for the info on 5 Spice powder.

Your welcome, Candi.
Let ‘ya in on a little secret… sure fire way to get picked is to link up with a soup recipe. I love soup!
Your Praline Pecan Scones look delicious too. Thanks for linking up again!

Dear Rebecca Jean
Thank you so much for featuring my Blueberry Buckle as one of this week’s recipes! I am so glad you had a chance to make it – the cranberries sound awesome! I know my husband wants to try several variations of it the next time we make it!
I have something fabulous I made this weekend that I’ll be sharing with you as soon as I have a chance to write it up!
Have a wonderful week!
Ramona

Your welcome, Ramona.
Mister enjoyed the cranberries in it, but I’m more of a blueberry person. I think chunks of apple with cinnamon would be good to. It’s a great recipe to customize.
Can’t wait to see what you’ve cooked up this week!
