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.
- White Bean Hummus
- Beetroot Salsa Tortilla Dip
- Cannellini Bean Dip
- Baked Almond and Chickpea Falafels
- Lime and Coriander Hummus
- Sweet Potato and Lime Hummus
Soups
Soup is a family favourite for Saturday lunch times. I often make my soups from vegetables I already have roasted from previous meals or blend them raw in the Vitamix.

See also my collection of 40+ Tomato Week recipes (which in the UK coincides with Vegetarian Week!) – not all of these are vegetarian too but a lot are and different to those in this list.
Wow! What a collection of recipes. It just goes to show that vegetarian eating definitely doesn’t have to be boring.
Wow, this is brilliant. I love so many of these recipes and it’s always great to have ideas for future entertaining and catering jobs. I think I’ll start with your cauliflwer biryani, my fave!
Wow, what a great collection. I want to try them all so it look like I have over a month of dinners sorted 😉 And thanks for including my recipe as well.
