Go to a Greek or Middle Eastern place and get falafel, tabouleh, hummus, baba ghanoush with pita, dolmas. YUM
i have the same issue. i gets sooo boring. i always stay at home and end up cooking.
if you're wanting to eat out there are a lot of vegetarian options at fazoli's and at panera......panera's black bean soup is delicious!! happy eating =)
we have a little all veggie diner where i live. Pita Pit has great hummus, falaf, veggie pitas, but other than that you will get to choose between two or three items. sad huh?
India.
Mmmmmmm I love Greek food...great suggestion! Really, I have no problem finding good vegetarian selections at any major restaurant. You might have to ask for the meat to be left off of a dish, though. For instance, Applebees has a great southwestern salad that has chicken in it, so I just ask for it with no chicken. Chipotle of course allows you to tell them exactly what you want in your taco or burrito. Most Italian restaurants you can order any pasta with marinara sauce on it. Think of the menu selections as suggestions. You can always ask for them to be tweaked.
Depends on where you live.....
