Last week, I started a recap of some of the amazing recipes created during the first round of Meatless Mondays from A-Z.
The first 13 recipes reminded me of several recipes I still want to make, plus a few that I’ve already made and enjoyed at home! I hope you discovered a few to add to your list too.
********************
Before we get to the final 13 recipes, I want to recognize two amazing MMAZ participants who really rock! These ladies created a recipe for every letter of the alphabet – from Artichoke to Zucchini. I’m sure you’ve seen many of their amazing creations over the weeks. To recognize their rockstar status, I’ve created the Meatless Mondays from A-Z Rockstar award especially for them -
Thank you both for your amazing support of MMAZ!!
********************
Now it’s time for the second half of the alphabet – which started last November and wrapped up at the beginning of this month. As a reminder, we’ll start the second round on April 1st, so stay tuned for all the details and the first group of ingredients!
Get ready to drool…

So much deliciousness! Sarah’s whipped cream creation blew my mind. And I want Kristina to make me a drink. Wpuldnt we have the most epic dinner party?!
Thanks for including 2 of my submissions! Those are still staples in my diet. Thanks for the inspiration! Can’t wait for round 2!
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table recently posted..Marvelous Monday Meals
YES. our dinner party WILL be epic.
Kristina recently posted..cashew cabbage crunch salad
I want to start planning that dinner party – sounds like a GREAT idea!
Whoo hoo! Thanks so much! I LOVED this whole idea, from concept WAAAAY back when, to implementation. It really kept me motivated to be creative in the kitchen. I can’t wait for round two. :)
I did not celebrate St. Patrick’s Day…although I have red hair, I am not Irish, so instead I watched Brave and celebrated my Scottish heritage.

You earned that award and I really appreciated your excitement and involvement (and suggestions!).
Brave is a GREAT movie!
I celebrated with my vegan reuben rolls… and my homemade Irish cream. not at the same time…
THANK YOU girl! for the rockstar designation and for this fantastic idea – the best weekly linkup idea I have ever seen! I have had so much fun, as you know, and cannot wait to get started again (I am not impatient, I REALLY have enjoyed and needed this break!)
happy Monday!

Ooh – I LOVE your rueben rolls, wish I had thought of those! And I still do need to make that Irish Cream. Seriously, I think you should always make extra and ship it to me.
And girl, you EARNED that rockstar designation. I appreciate your support of MMAZ more than you know. :)
I would love one of those grapefruit ginger cocktails right now. I’m so in for round 2!
Alayna @ Thyme Bombe recently posted..Giveaway time! Win a signed copy of The Japanese Pantry!
That drink is SO on my list to make too – looks fantastic! And I’m SO glad you’re going to be joining us for the next round, it’s so much fun! :)
Is it weird that roasted root veggies ALWAYS look good to me?!? :) The nutmeg recipe sounds interesting . . . . I’ll have to check that out!
Michelle @ Eat Move Balance recently posted..Friday’s Five
I’ve found all of Laura’s recipes amazing – you can’t go wrong with her creations! :)
seriously so many amazing recipes!!!
Linz @ Itz Linz recently posted..Hiking at Squaw Peak

Thank you so much for including me in the highlights! I am SO GLAD that I stumbled upon your blog during the MMAZ challenge, and can’t wait until the next round starts so I can play with the whole alphabet!

I’m so glad you joined – the more the merrier, I love getting to know new bloggers this way too! :)
Wow, that zucchini past looks fabulous! Thanks for the shout-out! Looking forward to Round 2 :-)
Lindsey @ Pas de Deux recently posted..Touring and Tasting San Francisco
I love spiralized pasta, so that one definitely looks amazing to me too!
I’ll say it again…I’m SO glad you did these recaps! I was so overwhelmed with stuff on the second half of the alphabet…it seriously pained me to see yet another letter go by each week without getting to participate! I give major props to our two rockstars…and you too…for coming up with such inspiring and CREATIVE recipes! (and if there was anything bigger than all caps to further express that statement, you better believe I’d be all over it! ;)) This just reminds me how much I drooled and pined over Sarah’s apple pie whipped cream! Gah, I really need to make that!
Hopefully (surely…please God??) I’ll be back to my kitchen dancing by April 1st because I can’t WAIT to see what’s up for the next edition!

I’m so glad that you enjoyed them. I know what you mean about being overwhelmed and missing out, I’m so out of touch with my favorite bloggers right now, it’s been a crazy few weeks and it’s so easy to get bhind.
And I’m so glad to hear you’re hoping to join more often for the next round – I love seeing what YOU come up with!
All these dishes look great. I’m looking forward to your next round. I’m hoping I can get in on all this alpha action.

Yay – can’t wait for round 2 and your creations too!
Now that I can have more foods, I’m drooling over these recipes! Delicious!
Brittany @ Delights and Delectables recently posted..Warm or Cool Toned?
Yay!! Now you just have to decide where to start, right? ;)
