How to eat vegetarian on the go

Going vegetarian and making delicious vegetarian delicacies take time. If you have a very busy schedule, you can still go vegetarian. Here are some tips for busy vegetarians on the run.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1
     

    Stock up on veggie protein burgers. There are many varieties out there including cheeseburger, garden burger, and mushroom flavor. You can make these in the microwave and put them on a bun with chesse, pickles, lettuce or tomato in under 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2
     

    Buy Lean cuisine Brickhouse style pizzas at your local grocery store. There are personal size and you can microwave them in 4 minutes. You can choose from Gourmet mushroom, tomato or roasted vegetable. These are actually very good and low in fat and calories.

  3. Step 3

    On the fast food side, Subway, taco bell, and burger king are good choices. Burger King offers a BK veggie burger. Subway's veggie delight sandwich is versatile. Try it with a different sauce every time. Taco bell has burritos without meat or you can just substitute beans for meat on anything there.

  4. Step 4
     

    Vegetarian chili is great. Heat it up quickly and eat with a peanut butter sandwich.

  5. Step 5
     

    Salads are classic. You can get salads at almost any restaurant. You can also change it up by adding different toppings every time.

  6. Step 6

    Bring little snacks with you like yogurt, string cheese, crackers, fresh fruit and vegetables. Peanuts are also great snacks because they are packed with protein. (also high in fat for those who are dieting)

  7. Step 7

    Go online. Look for quick vegetarian recipes that you can make the night before and take with you. Also look for online health food retailers for ingredients and vegetarian convenience foods.

Tips & Warnings
  • Visit your local health food store. They will have more frozen vegetarian foods than your regular grocery store.
  • Be creative and you will be able to maintain your vegetarian diet even on the go
