---OK Brands---

---High Nutrient Veggies---
Honestly, pretty much any veggie is a good veggie. But dark leafy greens are always recommened. Kale, spinach, etc. If you're looking for calcium, dried dates are a delicious option. Try hard to get a wide variety of different colors of fruits and veggies in your diet (sounds silly but the colors are different nutrients, etc).

---Warning!!!---
* Watch out for gelatin! It's in so much.
* Soups, noodles, gravies, etc are often made with chicken/beef broth. Always ask
* Pinto beans at restaurants, including Chipotle, have pork in the beans. Mexican restaurants often have pork in their beans too.
* Should you someday decide to go vegan, Italian restaurants make ALL their pasta with eggs. ALL of it.
* ALWAYS read the ingredient labels. And read them again. Check for sneaky ingredients like rennet, lard, etc that have "cover" names.

---General Advice---
* READ! Read books, articles, websites, magazine, etc about vegetarianism. Staying informed is the best way to keep on track and be aware.

Good Luck!

Vegan

I'm veggie, have been 17 almost 18 years now. (whole life). I find that the Quorn branded products are really tasty, there's a wide variety and it goes with almost everything, unlike tofu which I hate.

:) as for recipes check out the vegetarian section on instructables.com :)
