Vegetarian Cooking

Despite the massive variety of dishes on offer for vegetarians, there's still a stereotype that meat-free cuisine is all about nutloaf and quinoa. Of course there's always a place for healthy foods in the vegetarian diet, but that's not the full extent of what's available to those of us who choose not to eat meat and fish. From picnic treats to dinner party showpieces, soups and salads to serious comfort food, our tips and tricks will help cooks of all abilities produce excellent results, every time. From a completely healthy recipe to the ultimate in indulgence, it's all here, including delicious meal ideas from celebrity chefs and nutritionists, and much, much more.

Healthy Meals

We all know how important it is to get our daily dose of greens, yet for so many of us, vegetables can be a bit of an afterthought, propped on the side of plate – hardly the way to create healthy meals. If you want to learn exciting new ways of preparing fresh, nutrient-packed and healthy food, then look no further! More and more people are wising up to the tremendous benefits of a vegetarian or vegan diet to your health – not only have non-meat eaters been found to live longer, but they are also less likely to suffer heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, type 2 diabetes and certain cancers. Add to this the UN's recent statement on how eating just one meat-free meal a week could significantly reduce the effects of global warming, and cooking healthy vegetarian recipes seems like plain common sense. From low-calorie recipes to egg- and dairy-free ideas, healthy eating recipes abound on cookveg.co.uk, so you'll always find something to suit your needs.
