Recipe Hubs for Vegetarians
By Cloverleaf
Most of the recipes that I publish feature meat of some kind, and I'm starting to get worried because Hyphenbird, one of my favorite vegetarian hubbers, and a loyal follower of my recipe hubs, is now starting to crave meat!
I don't cook vegetarian dishes very often but I just lately I've read some exceptional hubs that feature some awesome recipes for vegetarians. So to ensure that I cater for meat-eaters and vegetarians alike, I would like to focus this article on sharing some of my favorites vegetarian ideas and recipes that I have come across on HubPages.
Hosting a Vegetarian Guest
I never really knew how to properly accommodate a vegetarian dinner guest, that is until I read this fantastic hub by Giselle Maine. After reading this hub I was able to understand how to make vegetarian substitutions, how to avoid cooking with meat and also how to avoid products that are made from meat, such as broths and certain sauces.

Do you have a Vegetarian Recipe that you would like to share?
Oh thanks, Victoria Lynn! I'm not a vegetarian but I do enjoy eating meat-free dishes from time to time, and the ideas I am finding on HubPages have been truly outstanding. I have enjoyed reading each and every one of the hubs I have referenced here. I am thinking of making the vegetarian lasagna this weekend. Thanks for your comment and votes, have a great evening!
Cloverleaf.
Great job of referencing sites that are useful. I am a vegetable lover and welcome the new recipes. Even though I eat fish and chicken, veggies are my first choice. I am following you! Thanks! You live in a great city. I was there last month!
Hi Cloverleaf, well put-together, your info flowed nicely and the pics were well chosen. The vegetarian lasagna had my mouth watering! And thank you so much for linking to my hub with a full explanation beforehand too. I was thrilled to bits! Thanks again for this hub.
That vegetarian lasagna looks terrific. While I do enjoy meals with meat I am by no means opposed to having a meatless meal like the ones you shared. I think an additional benefit may also be some cost savings.
I'm not a vegetarian but I prefer meatless dishes and since living in Greece I follow the Mediterranean diet with lots and lots of vegetables in my cooking.
So thank you Cloverleaf and fellow hubbers for those great recipes that will add an exciting touch to my Greek cooking!!!
Bookmarked, Voted up and useful!

You are so wonderful to put this Hub together. And you did a great job with it. All of the links and recipes are going to be used by me. Really vegetarian food is so flavorful. Once people try it they will see that meat does not have to be served at every meal. And eating less, or no, meat is healthier for us.
Thank you, thank you! Now I do not have to sneak into Meat Eaters Anonymous.
Hi Cloverleaf! Since I am a near vegetarian, this hub is right up my alley! You should open your own restaurant (if you haven't already). I would travel there with mouth watering in anticipation!
Voted up, up and away!
Wonderful resource for people looking for a collection of vegetarian recipes. I hadn't considered the use of stock (chicken or beef) in my vegetable soups would make it "not vegetarian." I do not eat meat very often, so I am intrigued to try these recipes!
Super resource, Cloverleaf. Even those of us who are not vegetarian, we can all do with a meat-free meal from time to time. We try to do it at least once or twice every week. That Lasagne looks particularly yummy!
Thanks Cloverleaf for this great hub and linking my hub, I really appreciate it! I can't wait to check out the others. I am always looking for ways to reduce our meat intake. Nicely done.
SimpleGiftsofLove, so nice to meet you. How did you enjoy visiting Calgary? Thanks for coming by to comment.
Giselle, it's my pleasure - your hub is packed full of great information for hosting vegetarian guests. I'm looking forward to reading more of your hubs!
Hi there ktrapp, thanks so much for commenting and for pointing out the cost savings too!
Hyphenbird, so glad that I haven't turned you over to the dark side. I was getting worried about your cravings LOL
SanneL, I am very envious of your Meditteranean diet. I would enjoy eating all those fresh veggies every day!
Hey Dex, as soon as I open that restaurant I will let you know :)
Hi stephhicks68, I hope you enjoy trying out some of these recipes. I had great fun reading through all the great vegetarian recipe on HubPages. There are so many good ones out there that I expect I'll be adding to this hub quite frequently!
Hi Rika, I too enjoy a meat-free meal occasionally and the vegetable lasagne "had me at Hello" ;)
Cardelean, you're very welcome! I think your hub is doing a great job of seducing meat-lovers everywhere and so I was delighted to include it.
Cloverleaf.
This was awesome. I believe that this recipe so healthy and delicious as well. I'll show this to my mom. Thanks for share with us. Vote up as usual. Take care!
Prasetio
Awesome hub and you've linked so many other great recipes, too! My brother and one of my cousins are vegetarian so I've watched a lot of family meals over the years where people had to consider non-meat options. My husband and I also had to consider it for our wedding. My husband is pretty adamant about having meat at dinner every night, but I do enjoy meat-free main dishes sometimes. They just have to have the right amount of filling ingredients! Thanks for all of the great links and ideas here.
Thank you Prasetio! It's always great to see you and I enjoy reading your comments. I hope your mom enjoys this recipe too. Thanks for your vote, and have a great day :)
Cloverleaf.
Hi Randomcreative, yes I'm with you on that! I do enjoy a hearty evening meal so if it's meat-free then it has to be packed with other goodies because I wouldn't want to go hungry :) Thanks as always for leaving such a great comment!
I try to have a couple of vegetarian meals every week, just to make sure that I am eating enough vegetables. I agree that the vegetarian lasagna looks wonderful! I find that non-meat dishes can be just as hearty as those with meat, but one has to be a bit more creative, I think, to make them work!
Thanks for giving us such a helpful hub Cloverleaf, I would have no worry then next time when preparing the vegetarian dishes for my sis...voted up!
Great hub to bookmark! I am not vegetarian but have been cutting the meat out more and more so I know many dishes can be delicious without it and appreciate the great recipes. V U !
Another great hub cloverleaf. I am not a veggie person, but the rest of the family loves them. Always enjoy your food hubs. Very useful and votes up.
Great hub cloverleaf. I will be doing a couple meatfree dishes soon I think. You can look for them before the end of the year. Thanks for the mention in this one. I love it!
I've never been a vegetarian, but I love vegetable dishes. nice recipes here.
I am vegetarian and I always looking for new and good recipes. Thanks for this collection! ( lasagna looks very good!)
Thanks, everyone! I made cardelean's vegetarian lasagne on Saturday and it turned out sooooo good.
I'm not a vegetarian but I love vegetables and am always looking for new ways to prepare them. Am bookmarking this hub because it has lots of great links and the photos of the meals look mouth watering.
Also think it's nice that you featured other hubbers.
Voted up and useful.
Good morning Happyboomernurse, how kind of you to stop by and post such a lovely comment. You've put a big smile on my face this morning! I'm very happy that you enjoyed all the links. I'll be doing a Hub Love for Thanksgiving Recipes soon, too.

carrie
Cloverleaf, just getting caught up on my reading after a busy couple of weeks and so glad I found this hub just in time for Meatless Monday! Thanks so much for mentioning my butternut squash soup hub.
Thank you to linking to my lentil and bean hub. This is a great hub that includes many links to hubs on vegetarian cooking. I will submit this to Stumbleupon!
Wow ~ thank you dear Louise for sharing my Butternut Squash recipe on your hub. A very sweet gesture...but then you wrote the book on being sweet. I'm eager to try the other vegetarian dishes featured here. One of my New Yr's resolutions is to encourage my friends to become vegetarians (that includes you.) Maybe Hyphenbird will join me in this quest. :) Voted UP on this delicious hub.
Hugs...
vocalcoach~
It might take some persuading, Audrey! Although I do enjoy meatless meals occasionally. Hope all is well with you. Best wishes for the holidays! :)
Cool hub!:) You make me hungry. Lol.
After and reading your hub, my hunger for lunch had been increased.Well well written hub,Voted up and Useful.
Great idea for a Hub! I would have never thought of it.
Looks great. Thanks sharing. Voted up!
Really a great hub. It looks so delicious. Will give a try on these recipes.Thanks
I am always looking for new vegetarian recipes and these look so great. I am definitely bookmarking for future use. Still can't get my head around a burger though, they seem forever meat to me and SO fattening!!!
Hi Cloverleaf - I'm glad I found this. My daughter and her roomies try to follow a vegetarian diet. She works out quite a bit and needs something a bit more hardy. These sure seem to fit the bill. The veggie lasagna looks REALLY good and I'll have to check out the butternut squash recipe as well.
I'm going to bookmark this and forward it to my daughter.
Voted up and yum! Sharing too!
That plate sure looks delicious. I'm beginning to think all of the great recipes are on HUbpages! I try to live a healthy lifestyle, but when the food is delicious, I can't help but break my own rules. With this recipe i'll definitely stick to eating healthy! SHARING and VOTING UP!
Hi Cloverleaf. This hub was wonderful! I always try to make a couple of vegetarian or vegan dishes when I know that I will have a few vegetarians coming over. It's a great policy to cook for everyone in your party :). Voted up, interesting, useful and awesome! Thank you!
Hi Miss Olive, I hope your daughter enjoys the recipe. The vegetarian lasagna is one of my favourites!
Jessi, I say "good for you for staying healthy!" Thanks so much for the votes and share; I appreciate it.
Riaha, your guests must love coming for dinner at your house, it sounds as though you're a marvellous host. Thanks for pressing all the buttons!
That black bean burger looks pretty good. I find that Italian food is great for vegetarians, especially since you can substitute meat for eggplant or just give them pasta with sauce.
Hi Cloverleaf: I just hope they are enjoying my vegetarian cooking as opposed to the fact that there is nothing else to eat LOL!! :)
I am SO beyond hungry now! When will dinner be ready?
Hi mandymoreno81, pasta is so versatile. Also, to make a lighter dish, I once actually replaced the lasagna sheets with thinly sliced eggplant - I was very pleased how it turned out! Thanks for coming by to comment :)
Riaha, LOL - sometimes we can be very resourceful when there's nothing else to eat!
Hi Ardie, I was just thinking the same thing!
wow, cloverleaf. Being a vegetarian, I loved all the recipes and so nice of you to tag other hubber's recipes to your hub.
voted up as interesting and useful.
Gotta share it around :)
Hi Ruchira, I really enjoyed seeking out some great vegetarian recipes on HubPages. Thanks for sharing them around :)

Nice hub, Cloverleaf. Very cool of you to reference other writers' recipes--what a collection! I'm not a vegetarian but I love meatless dishes and often meatless meals. Vegetable lasagna is great! The black bean burger looks incredible. The soup looks yummy, too. You have lots of recipes on here, so I'm going to bookmark this for when I need it. Awesome, useful, interesting, and voted up!
