YOU ONLY GET ONE LIFE - LIVE IT TO THE FULLEST!
You've finally made the decision to change your
eating habits and dive head first into a vegetarian lifestyle.
Congratulations! You have made a wise decision. Now you have to decide
whether to go 'cold turkey' or make the transition gradually. Whichever
way to choose to start your vegetarian lifestyle, you can will notice
the health benefits of vegetarianism more quickly by firstly
significantly reducing the amount of meats consumed, and making
vegetables, fruits, legumes, and whole grains the focus of your meals.
Take
your time when shopping for food, plan ahead, and make sure you read
food labels to ascertain information about food additives, food
coloring and hidden animal ingredients. If you decide to eat dairy
products, choose non-fat or low-fat varieties.
There is a wide
variety of vegetarian foods available in most grocery stores, however,
some of the more uncommon items may need to be sourced from one of the
many specialty vegetarian food stores. Eat a wide variety of foods, and
don't be afraid to try vegetables, fruits, grains, breads, nuts, or
seeds that you've never tried before. Convenient, ready-to-eat,
whole-grain breakfast cereals, and quick-cooking whole-grain cereals
such as oatmeal, whole-grain breads and crackers, such as rye, whole
wheat, and mixed grain and other grains such as barley and bulgur wheat
are readily available.
You should give consideration to the following foods:
* Canned beans, such as pinto, black beans, and garbanzo beans
* Rice (including brown, wild, etc.) and pasta (now available in
whole wheat, spinach, and other flavors) with tomato sauce and canned
beans and/or chopped veggies
* Vegetarian soups like lentil, navy bean, or minestrone
* A wide variety of plain frozen vegetables, and canned and frozen fruit
* Fortified soymilks and soy cheeses, should you choose to not eat dairy
* A wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, which should be the core of any diet
Once
you have mastered the art of cooking delicious vegetarian meals you
will soon realize that a meatless diet does not have to lack variety.
As a matter of fact you will find it easy and fun to serve up such
healthy, tasty and perhaps life prolonging meals that you and your
family will thoroughly enjoy.
