Every time a person consumes an entirely meat-free dinner, livestock around the country briefly escape from their pens to perform a celebratory rendition of the hand jive. Keep these majestic creatures dancing with today's Groupon: for $7, you get $15 worth of vegetarian fare at Jazzy Veggie in Ann Arbor. Jazzy Veggie began when owner Ananth Pullela decided to open a restaurant with unique meatless options that would wow vegetarians and carnivores alike. Jazzy Veggie's menu includes a variety of items that incorporate meat substitutes and pronounced produce. Try the signature dish, the sweet potato quinoa sandwich ($7.50), made with roasted sweet potatoes, red quinoa, fresh herbs, garlic, greens, and a red curry mayo. Traditionally meaty classics such as BBQ chicken ($6.95) and sausage with peppers ($6.95) also get the vegetarian treatment, with the fowl and pork slyly swapped out for meatless alternatives. The quick service, casual atmosphere, and availability of pizza ($7.25) also make this a nice place to introduce youngsters to the wonders of plant-based cheese.

The Michigan Daily and AnnArbor.com featured Jazzy Veggie and nine Yelpers give it an average of 3.5 stars.

• The BBQ was perfectly sweetened and the meatless chicken breast was thick and hearty--overall a very filling meal. I will definitely be going to Jazzy Veggie again and plan to check out other items on the menu (the muffaletta and sweet potato quinoa signature sandwich were both enjoyed by my lunchmates) – Traci W., Yelp
