There are many mixed opinions when one talks about vegetarian recipes and the benefits of a healthy vegetarian diet. Some swear by it, while others hate it completely. Many of the staunch vegetarians believe in the fact that it is a better way to live a healthy life. In India, many households prepare vegetarian dishes but the old tradition of too many spices, oils and fats continue, making these vegetarian dishes unhealthy.


Some vegetarians are overweight, of course  for reasons similar to those that cause obesity among meat-eaters. So beware of swapping out meat for nutritionally empty, calorie-dense foods. The healthiest vegetarian diet will have a lot of vegetables, fruits, nuts, and legumes.


So, today we give you 20 healthy vegetarian recipes, which will be easy on your waistline and kitchen time.
