Vegetarian Dishes

Return to Kalyn's Kitchen home

(This page is for vegetarian main dishes or salads which I would eat as a meal. Dishes which I believe are vegan are marked (v). Dishes not marked as vegan may contain cheese. Some dishes contain chicken stock, which can easily be substituted with vegetable broth. If you find a dish marked vegan which shouldn't be, please let me know.)

There are also many vegetable side dishes in Vegetables.

For the benefit of those following The South Beach diet, notations after each recipe listing indicate Kalyn's opinion as to which phase of the diet each that recipe can be used for.
