Guest guest Posted April 5, 1999 Report Share Posted April 5, 1999 I too, sometimes, think of veg menus as easy - just substitute a " main dish " (BIG carb) dish for the meat - try to match cals. I do this only if I'm confident that we've had enough alternative protein sources. Plant protein combine to create complete proteins. I have to think of rice and yams, or beans and rice etc. but those are not weight loss regimens. Here btw is a good bibliography on veg nutrition.
