Eating healthy

Like I said being vegetarian doesn't necessarily mean eating healthy. I started out eating junk food! Cheese sticks,cheese pizza, salad covered in ranch dressing,french fries, vegetarian nuggets (homemade, but still!), veggie burgers, and so much other bad stuff. It's okay in moderation, but not every other day, like I did!
      Healthy doesn't have to mean salad for three meals a day. But salad can be made really good! Pasta noodles with tomato sauce ( check labels on everything!) is vegetarian,you can add if you want. Most grocery stores sell vegetarian meat substitutes. I favorites are Boca original burgers,they're vegan. Yves hotdog sausages,they're vegan. Vegetarian meat balls, a couple different companies make them,not a big fan of Morningstar's. There are a lot of products out there. Deli meats, which I haven't tried. Breakfast sausage, pretty good. Bacon, is okay, you have to get used to it. Marshmallows, aren't vegetarian, gelatin is made with animal products. It's gross, look it up if you want to know. Jello has gelatin. Frosted poptarts have gelatin, unfrosted is fine. Ramen Noodles have dried chicken,beef, or shrimp. Some candies aren't vegetarian. Skittles,Swedish Fish, and Sour Patch Kids are fine. For breakfast, most cereal ( read labels!), oat meal, eggs, toast,fruit, yogurt, and others are all vegetarian, use your imagination. Lunch; salad, pasta, Subway (get a veggie delight and put what you want on it for like 5 busks.), veggie burger, vegetarian burrito (beans, rice, sour, lettuce, tomato, avocado, etc.) (read labels; especially rice and beans!) taco salad, corn salad, use your imagination. Dinner, the same, be creative.
     As for vegans. Vegan meat substitutes. At Subway get italian bread and don't get mayo. I love soy milk! I live in a small town in Mississippi and my Walmart even has vegan cheese slices, but I haven't tried them yet.
So most of all be creative! You can vegetarianize and veganize pretty much anything! And always read labels!
