When I stopped eating meat, I fell in love with East Indian food - there's so much selection, and they use the most beautiful spices.
I love making vegetable, pea, and broccoli soups. They're pure, low-calorie, and incredibly tasty.
Well, we became a vegetarian. But that didn't last very long, because, um, I don't like vegetables. Or salad, nothing like that!
If you're a vegan fast food joint in L.A., you just don't speak the same language as the heartland.
I'm always cooking big veggie curries for friends with tons of spices, coconut milk, chilli - I'll saute potatoes in the spices, then cook them with all the flavours and stir in some chickpeas and spinach at the end before serving it on a bed of sesame brown rice. It's easy to do and tastes amazing!
I love mayonnaise, but mustard is a must when you're doing the Impossible Burger.
At first, people think about vegetarian food like, 'Here's some veggies. Here's some pasta.' But there's so much more you can do in the vegetarian and vegan world.
In our house, some of our favourite recipes just happen to be vegetarian, but I still enjoy meat and I believe very much in meat.
Before I turned vegetarian, I used to often cook seafood or my favourite breakfast of eggs and bacon. Now, I love making pulao or rice with lots of spices and vegetables.
There's 'Erewhon', a whole big super store where they do incredible raw vegan food.
Vegetarian and frugal it may be, but the chickpea is one of the most versatile ingredients you could keep in your cupboards.
I quit steaks for a while, but it's a hard habit to break.
I enjoy three meals a day, and 90 per cent of what I eat is vegetarian and homemade. I occasionally eat non-vegetarian, and chicken preparations are my favourite.
I love cooking vegan. Anybody can come in any time to any of our restaurants and get a vegan meal or a gluten-free meal as well.
I'm a big health-food freak and a vegetarian devotee.
Well, once I fried tofu and put Sriracha on it. After that I was so depressed I swore off preparing food for myself altogether.
I'm not a big chicken or meat eater, but sometimes I'll eat it if it's locally raised. The family dinner will be stir-fry, or we'll roll our own sushi with brown rice, spinach, salmon, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and seaweed. The kids love it!
I have a special style of frying tofu that even the most carnivorous meat-and-potatoes eaters enjoy.
I am a simple person and a big fan of Indian cuisine, so whenever I am home, I prefer to eat the simple daal roti.
What I've been developing is a vegan fast food chain and vegan food markets.
I love vegan tacos... soooo good! I invite friends over to have some, and they can't believe they aren't eating real meat.
I make a vegan baked ziti. And even though that doesn't sound enjoyable, it really is.
My husband is a vegetarian. So it has really pushed me as a chef. Just thinking about the food that I really relied on as my hunny-hunting foods, that looks different with a vegetarian.
I make a big pot of pasta with vegetables, and I stretch it out for the week.
I'm a vegetarian who doesn't like eggplant parmesan. Isn't that awful? I'm also sick of portobello mushrooms. People are like, 'A vegetarian's coming to dinner,' so they serve those.
