Vegetarian


Question Posted Sunday May 27 2007, 11:07 pm

I'm a vegetarian while the rest of my family eats meat. I need some different recipes for things I can make, but I'm trying to cut down on carbs. Can anyone help me?

You can always experiment with salads like buying a dressing you've never tried, or adding cranberries or strawberries, or even putting nuts on the salad. Also try using spinach leaves or different kinds of lettuce. You might be surprised by what you come up with and it'll be really tasty!

Since it's incredibly difficult to avoid all carbs, try whole wheat products instead. They're high in fiber and taste just as good, in my opinion. You could make whole wheat lasagna, whole wheat maccaroni, or any pasta dish just by substituting with whole wheat goods (found next to the other pastas in the aisle). You could even buy whole wheat flour and try making your own pizza with just cheese and veggies!

good luck-

Hmmm, same situation with me. I'm the only vegetarian out of my entire family and friends [except one friend. She's a vegetarian, too.]

-Boiled eggs [limit to egg whites if you want]
-Cheese ravioli
-Cream of Mushroom soup
-Mac & Cheese
-Cereal
-PB & J from Smuckers [try to limit as PB is bad]
-Low fat yogurt
-Veggie bites
-Spinach nuggest
-Boca Vegan patties [or anything from their brand]
-Vegetarian patties
-Fruits & Veggies

Just make sure that when you're going to try new foods, read the ingredients! They might have chicken/beef broth, gelatin [animal fat], and things like that in there--like Pop Tarts frosting, cup noodles, Cheerios cereal bar, etc. If you want more advice, inbox me =)
