If you completed the Veganuary challenge in January, are you still sticking to the plan or did you miss cheese and eggs too much? It’s a major change to make so I take my hat off to you.

As for me, I have I’m in my 2nd year of my vegetarian journey and it’s going well. In January 2018, I have given up pork and although this may seem like a difficult task, it is actually quite a thrill to have accomplished this.

I feel like I am managing just fine. For example, instead of bacon and eggs, I just whizz through my 19 vegetarian breakfast recipes. For lunch or dinner, I have a selection of 36 vegetarian main course recipes. The best part is that I can select any type of cuisine of my preference. Well, I think these 53 vegetarian side dish recipes will definitely be of service to you. You’ll find tonnes of inspiration and hopefully you’ll come up with amazing combinations! Let’s start!
