Vegetarian dishes

Neither meat nor fish
Not eating meat does not mean you
have to forgo the pleasures of variety
and great tasting food. The focus does
not always need to be on meat, pulses
and greens can also play a major part
on the culinary stage. Whether it's
wheat or rye, oats or barley, or even
spelt grain, pulses offer a wealth of
benefits in terms of ballast and
roughage, vitamins and minerals to
keep your diet healthy and on track.

Tips on preparation
In this section you will find a wide
variety of dishes, from tasty snacks to
substantial main courses.
A nutritious meal consists of protein,
fat, carbohydrates and sufficient
vitamins and minerals. Protein, the
body's fuel, can easily be obtained from
milk, cheese, quark and pulses.
A vegetarian diet is not a recent
concept. The philosophers of ancient
Greece spoke of the benefits of a meat-
free diet and the Vegetarian Society
was founded in London in 1811. Since
then the term "vegetarian" has applied
to anyone who does not consume meat
or fish.
