Reading your blog is certainly making me consider my meat eating habits. And I don't eat that much. But I'm sure going to cut it out completely, or cut it out slowly. Thanks for the great entry on why to go meat-free, and some of your favorite meals!

I totally respect vegetarians but I'm a carnivore myself. But I have enjoyed vegetarian meals as a nice meat alternative.

You are such a peach! You nearly have this meat-loving gal going veggie! (But, I'm going to be completely honest here, there's just no way I could do it for good. There's just no way. I'm a meat fan, which sounds gross, but is true.)

However, you're prompted me to cross off another thing on my list-of-things-I-must-do. Which is: Being a vegetarian for a week. I'd like to even go as far as trying it for a month. But we'll see...if someone offers me steak, I have to take it. I just can't deny myself that luxury. (Steak is a luxury to me, seriously.)

Great post, though, and awesome info! Thanks so much for sharing!

See my problem is not the meat. It's the carbs. Carbs are my best friend and enemy. Maybe I just have to find the right carbs to eat.

I really like these ideas. While I do enjoy meat, I don't eat it as often as I did back in the day, and I'm always looking for creative ways to make vegetarian dishes. (:

Is your hubby a vegetarian, too?

You are a very smart vegetarian. I know a lot of vegetarians that should read this list because they are going about it all wrong. I'm not a vegetarian myself but I don't eat a lot of meat (hardly any at all) I agree with your protein shout.

I think I'd be "more" vegetarian if I could have milk, and I do frequent some vegan blogs to get ideas for cooking without milk. Every once in a while I like to get a can of vegetarian refried beans, spread some on tortillas and either toast in a pan or microwave, then cook up a ton of broccoli and put that on top with salsa and (tofu) sour cream. Yummy.

I was vegetarian at one point and always sway back and forth..all of your info and food ideas make me want to again! My favorite vegetarian foods are homemade bean burritos and veggie corn dogs. YUM!

Black bean burgers on toasted English muffins are one of my favorite meals! I use a really easy recipe I found on Epicurious, and usually top them with salsa, guac, and sour cream. Yum!

I went vegetarian once in college...for a boy. My husband and I actually do eat vegetarian meals more often than we thought. We like the meat substitutes a lot - veggie burgers, dogs, crumbles, and bacon. Do you eat fish and dairy? I don't think I could give up cheese and be vegan.

Do you eat any meat substitutes? I'm gaga for Cal Vegan (to go spot by my work) and their soy chicken is amazing! Just need to figure out how to recreate the dishes at home.

Thanks for the tips!

These are all great tips, and yummy meals. I've also thought about being completely veggie. Still contemplate it. it's still a real possibility, well once I have enough time to plan meals and actually make it to the grocery store.

Is your husband vegetarian?

You know, I've often thought about going vegetarian - but frankly? I like meat. A lot.

I don't even have to eat it daily. But I do enjoy it.
