Vegetarian? No problem. These Creamy Avocado & White bean wraps have a tangy and spicy slaw that will give you every reason to keep a tall pitcher of Homemade Lemonade at your table. If spicy and crunchy doesn’t appeal, these gourmet Vegan Mushroom Sloppy Joes would be an awesome twist on a classic main course!

For the sweet finale, Eatingwell’s No-Bake Berry Cheesecake bars cut not only the calories but the saturated fats as well!
