Help!
Answers: I became a veggie last week and I need some good dishes because I bored of having pasta and veg.
Help!
As a vegetarian i eat a lot of quorn - http://www.quorn.co.uk/CMSPage.aspx - its a very good alternative, some quorn products give the same real taste, their website has More stuff like recipes, what quorn is and more
Cauldron foods do a lot of tofu and other veggie food like veggie sausages and veggie burgers their site has lots more stuff like recipes, their range and more - http://www.cauldronfoods.co.uk/CMSPage.a...
If you want to get more information on going vegetarian i would recommend going to the vegetarian society's page - http://www.vegsoc.org/index.html - they have food facts, recipes, jobs, eating out ideas, information on becoming vegetarian and much more

I am a former chef and a type 2 dibetic along with being a vegetarian, the best advice I can give you for interesting tasting and looking veggie entrees and other food choices, is find out what you like, I eat alot of veg, soya products, grains/legumes and beans, I also eat pasta but not alot of wheat based ones, rice, multi-grain and other grain based.
I also like spicy foods, that is one thing that most vegans and veggies lack, use spices, herbs and flavours to heighten the flavours of your dishes, I also make different ethnic dishes, Indian, Chinese, Japanese and Mexican. This way you do not get bored with your food choices, look for the specials in your local newspaper flyers, I plan my meals and do some thing ahead or make bases for the food with, spices, garlic and other aromatics and flavours.
This way you can come home and prepare a quick healthy meal in a short time, and a slow cooker is essential, I make veggie chilis, currys, seitin/TVP/soya chunks stews, soups with lots of veg and other sauces for pasta's or over rice.
