“To me, cooking vegetarian is an expression of love. It’s saying, I’m taking care of my family. I’m taking care of myself. I’m taking care of animals that aren’t being killed. A cookbook is about sharing the joy of that.”

—Megyn Price, in an interview with Vegetarian Times on the vegetarian cookbook she’s currently working on. It’s sure to include plenty of enticing recipes like this one for Very Green Soup, an alternative to chicken soup during those sniffle moments. Price says that, “Chicken soup is traditional, but, last time I checked, it contains the little feathery friends I have in my front yard, so it’s not an option.”

Check out the cruelty-free option to chicken soup that contains rice, fresh herbs, various greens, tofu and more at Price’s blog, Scrambled Meg.

If you like cuisines of the world, that’s another reason why you should go vegetarian.

So many cultures outside of America tend to use less meat in their dishes and make grains, vegetables and fruits the center of the plate.

Vegan marathoner Scott Jurek realizes this, and is often caught searching for ethnic spots when he’s on the road.

“It’s mostly about searching out ethnic foods, particularly when I’m in airports. You can still survive. In restaurants, a lot of times they have beans in the salad bar. Sometimes you have to look off the menu. It becomes a bit of a challenge, but usually Mexican and Asian are good choices.”

Mexican and Asian aren’t the only choices for great veggie food, as ChooseVeg has listed several popular vegan cuisines that are Ethiopian, Mediterranean and Indian.
