Vegetarian Recipes
The Vegetarian Diet is about not eating animals in the food that is consumed.
What Is Excluded From A Vegetarian Diet?
The vegetarian diet excludes any animal products such as:
- Meat (Chicken, Beef, Venison, Lamb, etc.)
- Fish and Shellfish
- Meat-based ingredients (gelatin, lard, etc)
A vegan diet, by contrast, also exclude animal-derived products such as:
- Eggs
- Milk and all dairy products
- Honey

- Ovo-vegetarian diet: Vegetarian diet with eggs, but without dairy.
- Lacto-vegetarian diet: Vegetarian diet with dairy, but without eggs.
- Lacto-ovo-vegetarian diet: Vegetarian diet with eggs and dairy.
