No Nonsense Vegetarian Cooking

By Owen Jones


Many individuals think that they simply would not have the time to become vegetarians. This is because if you cut the meat out of a normal diet, you will become malnourished. You have to replace the nutrients and vitamins accessible from meat with the same or comparable nutrients and vitamins in other foodstuffs like lentils, beans, pulses, nuts and legumes.

This means that vegetarians need to plan their meals more exactly that meat-eaters, but it does not have to be an obsession. There are pretty easy methods of acquiring all your mind and body requires.

It is probably factual to say that it is more difficult to plan meals in the correct manner while you first become a vegetarian, but you will soon get the hang of preparing meals that are nutritious and healthy. However, that gets harder and harder, the more foodstuffs that you leave out from your diet.

Some vegetarians will eat fish but some will not; some vegetarians will eat eggs and dairy products, and others will not. The more dedicated the vegetarian the more a problem it is to replenish the vitamins that you are lacking by not eating meat.

One manner of looking at how difficult it is to be a vegetarian is by remembering that meat needs to be cooked yet fruit and vegetables do not (or not all of them anyway).

Sandwiches are also a very fast vegetarian snack and you should take full advantage of all the different kinds of bread on the market to vary the flavours and the benefits from the ingredients.

Each cook should understand how to create a casserole and this is also true of vegetarian cooks. Maybe the best manner of making a casserole is in a crock pot, so if you have not got one yet, get one as soon as possible. After using your crock pot for a week, you will be wondering how you ever made the time to live without one before.

You can prepare important vegetarian casseroles for your family while you are at work or doing something else and there are thousands of vegetarian crock pot recipes without having to resort to using a meat recipe and just leaving out the meat.

The attraction of a crock pot is that you can prepare all sorts of food in it, not only casseroles. You can create puddings, breads and cakes, but that can become the topic of future articles. The other godsend to the busy cook is the microwave. You can microwave potatoes and other vegetables in minutes instead of roasting them for hours with the meat.

So next time you or someone else says that you do not have time to become a vegetarian, bear in mind that technology has moved on from the Seventies and it is a lot easier nowadays. There is a lot more known about vegetarianism now and that knowledge is much more broadly available - particularly over the Web and there are also better cooking devices like programmable crock pots and microwaves.
