How to come back to vegetarianism?!


Question: How to come back to vegetarianism?
I was vegetarian for 8 month and I liked it a lot. I had to go back to eating meat due to other complications in my diet. I want to go back to eating a vegetarian diet but I was so tired of eating beans, brown rice, and veggies for dinner. I know that there are plenty other veggie foods out there. The problem is I cant eat certain foods. I cant have cheese, red pasta sauce, potatoes etc and many other vegetarian foods. What else can I eat besides beans and brown rice. Come on veggies, give me lots of suggestions, lol. Thanks best answer will get 10 points

Answers:

I'm kind od addicted to baked tofu- it's hard, pressed, chewy and really really tangy and thick= they press it down while making it. Buy it in a Thai supermarket.

I love quorn, it's great for eating, it's a bit like chewy chicken.

Try different types of tofu- hard baked, soft, fried, casseroles.
Try grains like millet, spelt, quinoa, soba noodles, soy noodles, rice noodles, all the asian foods.
Try making elaboate noodle soups with crispy tofu on the side.
Or stuff tofu steaks with rice cakes and seaweed, stuff like that.

You can go crazy with gluten too- you can buy it, or make it easy yourself by rinsing a lump of flour under water over and over ( google how to make gluten).

Beans, rice and pasta DOES sound boring and there's no way vegetarian is a boring diet- the opposite.

Get used to new foods-
avocado, mung beans, rice noodles, seitan, seaweeds, millet, barley, corn, chickpeas, fava beans ( my favourite).

Good luck



Nuts and seeds have lots of protein, and you can grow your own sprouts, too. If you eat eggs, that's another source.

I can't eat cow's milk cheese but goat and sheep products produce no reaction; have you tried them?

I'm a gluten-free sugar-free vegetarian.



Im usually good with oatmeal, whole grain breads, diary, nut and seeds, vegies, fruits, veg pizza, veg burritos, anything that's not meat and healthy. Well.... Pizza isn't really healthy lol

I'm a vegetarian



I think you should look around the web for recipes and make yourself a nice recipe book.
Some good places to start are vegweb.com
and google 'vegan dad', i cant think of the name of the site but google will find it for you.



fruit pizzas
vegan burritos
veggie subs
sauteed veges
vege burgers

I was on PETA's website last night and they have great recipes.



Beer and Banana's
