Vegan lunches made with tomatoes

These twenty lunches lean on ripe tomatoes to tie together beans, grains, and greens without much fuss. The 15-Minute Lentil Burgers and the 10-minute Mediterranean Chickpea Wrap suit a tight midday break, while the Mediterranean Quinoa Power Bowl and Marry Me Bean Soup take a little longer but pack 18g of protein. We built this page for anyone who keeps a tomato on the counter and wants lunch sorted.
