  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Stumped about what to make for dinner on a meatless Lenten Friday? No need to fret, because our eight-meal planner has you covered!
Between Ash Wednesday, February 14, and Good Friday, March 29, there are eight meals in which Catholics are required by the Church to abstain from meat. We have all been caught unprepared on a Lenten Friday evening. Let’s face it — eating scrambled eggs or takeout pizza can get pretty boring after a few weeks.


Don’t fret, however, because Aleteia has an eight-meal plan covering Ash Wednesday and the following seven Fridays of Lent. We have chosen eight meatless dinners that are easy to prepare and full of flavor. Plus, each recipe article will include bonus recipes just in case our main selections don’t catch your fancy, along with a few words of wisdom that will helpfully make your Lenten journey more fruitful.

New recipes will appear every Tuesday morning, so bookmark this page so that you will have time to shop for ingredients. Of course, we welcome your own meatless meal recipes in the comments below.


Check out the PHOTO GALLERY to view our selections. You will find recipe links below.
