To be healthy and become a vegetarian, do you think you have to give up all the foods you grew up with and love?
Well, you are in for a pleasant surprise! You are about to find that eating vegetarian can be more delicious than you thought possible.
So, how do we get started? Well, the best way is to take it slow and easy so we don’t become overwhelmed and give up.
First we’ll take a look at 3 steps to making a transition to becoming vegetarian and then a meal plan to bridge the gap.
1. Think of 3 vegetarian meals you already enjoy or may find easy to convert over to. Common ones may be a veggie pizza, pasta dish or stirfry.

3. Think of 3 vegetarian meals you already enjoy or may find easy to convert over to. Common ones may be a veggie pizza, pasta dish or stirfry.
An average family switches between 8 to 10 different dinners anyway. So, if you use the 3 steps, you will have 9 vegetarian meals to switch between.
Some people think that breakfast is the hardest meal to convert to a vegetarian diet. I mean, really, how do we substitute eggs and bacon (if you so happen to be that kind of breakfast eater). It’s simple, just have a natural muffin or a healthy cold or hot cereal and some fruit. How about a fruit smoothie?
Here’s a nice vegetarian meal plan to get you started –
Breakfast – Fruit Smoothie Muffin Nuts
Lunch: “Tuna” Sandwich (substitute tuna made at home tastes great!) Green Salad
Snack: Fruit Salad Nuts
Dinner: Italian “Sausage” with saute’ onions and green peppers (substitute sausage is delicious!) Pasta Green Salad
Desert: Peanut Butter Bar
