GO VEGGIE – BECOMING A VEGETARIAN

Porking You Up
It’s a fact—ham, sausage, and bacon strips will go right to your hips. Eating pork products, which are loaded with artery-clogging cholesterol and saturated fat, is a good way to increase your waistline and increase your chances of developing deadly diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, asthma, and impotence. Research has shown that vegetarians are 50 percent less likely to develop heart disease, and they have 40 percent of the cancer rate of meat-eaters. Plus, meat-eaters are nine times more likely to be obese than pure vegetarians are. Every time you eat animal products, you’re also ingesting bacteria, antibiotics, dioxins, hormones, and a host of other toxins that can accumulate in your body and remain there for years.

what are the types of vegetarians?

isn’t there a pollo- ono type which allows you to eat chicken dairy and eggs?

Lacto Vegetarian = eat dairy
Ovo Vegetarian = eat eggs
Pesco Vegetarian = eat fish
Vegan = only fruits, veggies and legumes; no animal protein

is there a vegetarian food pyramid??

there is mypyramid.com that is great to figure out how much you need to eat, but meat is in the diet. I was wondering if there was a site like it but for vegetarians. Anyhelp would be great THX!

yes there is.

nutritionists created it for vegitarians

here is a pic

I am making a vegetarian lasagna?

My family is not vegetarian, but my sister-in-law, who is visiting, does not eat meat. So I asked her what she liked and she said spinach lasagna. I asked my husband how to make it and he just said instead of meat add spinach. Well duh, lol, but do I add the spinach into the toamto sauce, or do I layer it on the cheese. I just want to know how to layer this lasagna? Thanks for any help.
She does eat cheese and milk and such, in fact when we went to dinner she ate fish. She just won’t eat beef, chicken or pork. So I am good with the cheese and such. Thanks everyone for all your input.

yes just add cooked spinach with the tomato sauce!

having difficulty planning vegetarian high protein diet with economic shopping for body building, plx hlp!!?

here is a little bit about my current diet, i am aiming for 150g protein a day, thats 1g per pound of body weight. at current it usually goes
Breakfast
cereal (10g protein)
2 slice soya and linseed toast with peanut butter 17g protein
dinner
usually either quorn fajitas to about 20g protein, or batchelors pasta and sauce (20g protein), or quorn spaghetti bolognese,
usually same applies to a further 2 meals as above, and also i have 2/3 vegetarian protein shakes at about 20g protein a day.

i wanna cut out or limit my shakes to about 1 shake at 20/40gram post workout on a 5 day split. and also i wanna have 4 meals of 40g protein a day.

im findin shopping and planning very hard, so i need some guidance from fellow buildin vegetarians.

thanks :D x

Healthy, low calorie vegetarian recipes?

I eat chicken and fish, no red meat or pork. I also eat eggs and dairy but I don’t particularly too much cheese, although a little is okay. I also don’t like salad of any kind!!! I only like cooked vegetables as far as vegetables go.

Thanks!!!

I love this recipe, it was my mother in laws she was from Cyprus..

You will need a lidded fry pan..
I aubergine, peeled, cut length ways into 6 pieces.. Fry in a LITTLE olive oil, add chopped garlic to taste, this can be one two or more cloves of garlic.. Add one chopped onion.
Add I can chopped tomatoes, PLUS a half can of water, lots of black pepper, a little salt.
Bring to boil then immediately turn down heat to simmer, for around 45 mins, take lid off about 15 mins before end of cooking time.
This recipe is great served at room temperature, or hot.
Its even better reheated the next day, either in the fry pan/saucepan, or in the microwave.
I serve it with rice, or over pasta for veggie friends.
Is a great accompaniment to chicken, roast potatoes.. It keeps happily in the fridge for 3 days too.
Hope you make it, and enjoy it…
