Whether you are giving the vegetarian diet a try or you live a plant-based lifestyle, we have selected some of the most delicious and low-calorie, vegetarian meals for you to give a try!
A vegetarian diet involves abstaining from eating meat, fish, and poultry, but not from other animal-derived products such as dairy or honey, differentiating it from a vegan diet.
People often adopt a vegetarian diet for religious or personal reasons, as well as ethical issues, such as animal rights. Vegetarian diets are associated with several health benefits, and choosing low-calorie meals increases its weight-loss benefits.

Quinoa is the source of protein in this meal and, combined with broccoli, makes one of our favourite low-calories vegetarian dishes. The broccoli provides one of your five a day, but if you’re not a fan, then don’t worry! The broccoli can be substituted for cauliflower florets and is just as tasty.
The quinoa is not only the source of protein in this meal but is also rich in other vital nutrients such as iron, zinc, and B-vitamins. This recipe is a must-have,!

Zucchini curry comes in at the lowest calories on our list but it is one of the richest in terms of flavour. It is also gluten-free and ready in under 30 minutes, a perfect treat for the busy bees.
It is creamy in texture and goes well with Indian flatbread, naan, or rice as a one-pot curry. We recommend making the accompaniment a whole grain for its nutritional value.

This wild mushroom risotto is described as rich and indulgent and is only 340 calories! Substituting the cream and cheese for almond milk (or another nut-milk of your choosing) is a great way to reduce the calorie content, as well as the fat content.
