We recently subscribed to several of Vegetarian Times' weekly recipe newsletters, and since then, they've been piling up on our to-cook list.

With general vegetarian, low-fat, gluten-free and dairy-free versions, there are lots of options to choose from. Check out a few that have caught our eye below.

Across the board, the recipes that have popped up in our inbox have looked healthy and inviting, no-doubt helped by photos bursting with color and lots of fresh ingredients. Here are a few we've been meaning to try (and now is the time!):

• Sunny Raw Nori Rolls – A sunflower seed paste stands in for rice.
• Spinach and Red Mustard Salad with Chickpea Dal
• Grapefruit-Soba Noodle Salad with Spicy Peanut Sauce
• Peanut Butter-Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips
• Garlicky Mashed Sweet Potatoes
• Tatsoi, Mizuna and Edamame Salad with Sesame Dressing
