Answer 2

There are plenty of vegetarian products in supermarkets to help make meals interesting. There are also some really good recipe books available that can help too. I'm not vegetarian either but the rest of the family are - it just took a bit of lateral thinking to get used to the idea. A particular favourite is chilli beans and cheese on nachos with guacamole and soured cream to serve.

Oh my GOD!
I HAVE THE BEST RECIPES

i used to be a vegetarian when i was 13 and i have some great tips.
one is to make tofu spaghetti, its really great, what you do i you put one half of a package of extra soft tofu in a blender with one jar of any spaghetti sauce u desire, and wait until its all one consistency, then just serve over your favorite pasta. its yummy.

also morningstar farms, and garden ridge make great vegetarian frozen foods, such as meat free mini corn dogs that taste just like the real thing, butr are 50 times better for you. i also love their riblets!

Answer 5

Veggie Burgers

"Burgers that taste like hamburgers, but without meat! You can replace the Cheddar cheese with Monterey Jack or any other cheese you like. If you prefer, you may use a 1.4 ounce packet of brown broth in place of the soy sauce."


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INGREDIENTS:
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 small onion, grated
2 cloves crushed garlic
2 carrots, shredded
1 small summer squash, shredded
1 small zucchini, shredded
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIRECTIONS:
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over low heat, and cook the onion and garlic for about 5 minutes, until tender. Mix in the carrots, squash, and zucchini. Continue to cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and mix in oats, cheese, and egg. Stir in soy sauce, transfer the mixture to a bowl, and refrigerate 1 hour.
Preheat the grill for high heat.
Place the flour on a large plate. Form the vegetable mixture into eight 3 inch round patties. Drop each patty into the flour, lightly coating both sides.
Oil the grill grate, and grill patties 5 minutes on each side, or until heated through and nicely browned.

Answer 6

You can make anything with vegetables just use the normal meat recipe and substitute meat for veg IE Vegetable Lasagne Etc

Answer 7

hi, im 16 and a full time veggie. you could try:
-pizza, this is always good to get the kids involved in cookings, makes it fun put things like peppers, mushrooms on it. make faces etc.
- use soya mince, its made from vegetables but looks like dried mince, it tastes only slightly different, its great for lots of italian recipies e.g bollanaise, canalloni, lasagne
- stirfries, quick and easy
- potatoe based bakes, like potatoe and cheese bakes, tasty
- vegtable burgers and sausages, although they sound bad (and sometimes look bad!) they are very tasty. Try the birdseye ones, they have real vegetable peices in them.

Answer 8

my daughter has just turned vegetarian aswell and there are loads of foods and recipes available, look at the vegetarian society or viva websites they have lots of ideas and recipes.

Answer 9

There are lots of things for them to eat but really, if you are a complete novice in this field, it is better to buy a recipe book or go on the web.
