We've now moved from Veganuary, in January, to celebrating vegetarian food in the month of March. How many of you ate vegan the whole January? All meals from these 106 vegan recipes were able to keep me fully satisfied and I tried my best. However, I must say eating vegetarian is more preferable for me at the moment.  As you know, I proudly gave up eating pork since January 2018 and I am hoping to make a full vegetarian transition in due course. These 46 vegetarian starters definitely do their job in keeping me off meat as they very nutritious as well.

As mentioned in my previous vegetarian post, 19 vegetarian breakfast recipes, vegetarian meals are just as tasty as any other regular meal. Why not give these  46 vegetarian starter recipes a go? Here you'll find information on all types of starters from delicious hearty soups, to elegant little canapés from various types of cuisines and much more. I reckon everyone will be able to find something that they adore. I hope you enjoy these 46 vegetarian starters and find a couple of your favourites amongst the bunch.
