Have you been looking around for an amazing vegetarian recipe, but just didn’t find the right one? Within these 150 vegetarian recipes, you’ll be able to select between soups, starters, dips, sauces, side dishes, main courses, drinks and desserts, from a vast range of cuisines. Every day of the week can be an international adventure – Indian, Greek and even Icelandic!

I find myself cooking more and more vegetarian recipes. My vegetarian journey has thus bar been a very pleasant experience. I am a believer that you need to cut down on meat using a step-by-step approach. I wish I could do something drastic and cut off meat immediately, but I feel this would be counter productive and it wouldn’t be sustainable in the long run. Remember, going vegetarian is not a sprint, it’s a marathon. Hence, a slow and cautious approach is wiser in my opinion. My first step was to cut out pork with game next.
