I’ve gathered some of the best meatless meals and put them all in one place to serve as inspiration for you and your family during the Lent season!
I don’t know about you, but during the Lenten season, I struggle to come up with meatless meals. I get bored making the same recipes over and over.
This collection of fish, seafood and other meatless recipes will certainly help you find inspiration for Lent-friendly meals.
What is Lent?
The Lenten season, also known as Lent, is one of the most important seasons in the year for Christians.
During Lent, many Christians observe a period of fasting, repentance and spiritual discipline. The purpose of Lent is to relate to Christ’s sacrifice and reflect on his life, death and resurrection.
When Does Lent Start?
Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, lasts approximately six weeks, and concludes on Easter Sunday.
