"Eat food. Not a lot. Mostly plants." ~ Michael Pollan
For heart health, weight loss and environmental reasons, many of us who eat meat are beginning to call ourselves 'flexitarians'. More and more, we look for health veg(etari)an recipes to round out our diets. Kitchen Parade is NOT a vegetarian website but these recipes are either already vegetarian or vegan or can be easily converted with simple changes like switching to vegetable stock.

Your Comments:
Please know that mine is an omnivore site, the vegan recipes are provided not so much for vegans (who can find plenty of recipes with vegan-type substitutes and protein additives) as for those of us who elect to eat vegetarian / vegan some of the time, or who want access to recipes when we are cooking for those who elect to not eat meat or dairy, using the ingredients we would normally buy, not a whole pantry of special ingredients.
I hope this helps!
