40+ Vegetarian Week Recipes for Everyday Cooking

May 16-20 2016 heralds National Vegetarian Week so I have scoured my archives and those of my food blogging friends to pull out over 50 (yes it’s more than the image says, I got carried away) – mostly savoury – vegetarian recipes.

50+ Vegetarian Week Recipes to Cook Everyday

Of course the majority of sweet recipes on here are also vegetarian or easily adapted as so but I wanted to create a list of non sweet recipes to highlight that cake and dessert is not all we do here.

It’s a long term aim of mine to adapt more recipes from the archives as vegan, gluten free, dairy free etc but that’s a much bigger project. In the meantime I share with you my favourite blogged vegetarian recipes dating back to 2009 and sorted into themes….

Dips and Appetizers

Various types of hummus are a favourite of mine – I tend to make hummus in the Magimix whereas I might make pesto in a mini food processor and soup in a Vitamix. It’s all about using the best tool for the job! My hummus and dip recipes use a mix of dried and canned pulses and watch out for a brand new hummus recipe in the next few days.

• Beetroot Salsa Tortilla Dip
• Cannellini Bean Dip
• Baked Almond and Chickpea Falafels
• Lime and Coriander Hummus
