If you're someone who wishes to change their bad eating habits but don't know where to start, vegetarian appetizers are a delicious way to begin cutting meat out of your diet.
For people who can't resist ordering fries with their meals whenever they're given the option, there are now ways to easily make bread-crumbed zucchini fries at home. These cut down on the calories and incorporate the vegetable food group.
Further, when making many meals now, it's possible to substitute your favorite meat with tofu or more vegetables. For instance, with the right spices, a tofu snack can taste surprisingly good and you can make a pizza with sweet potatoes instead of pepperoni.
To slowly make the shift to a healthier you, mozzarella stuffed cherry tomatoes and feta-filled cucumber rolls allow you to enjoy your favorite cheeses in small portions with vegetables. Vegetarian appetizers are great alternatives to chips at BBQs and they also provide your health-conscious friends with guilt-free snacks.
