By cutting out meat you cut out a lot of the cholesterol, fat, as well as hormones and chemicals that animals get pumped with. The numbers don’t lie, and vegetarians have a lower risk of all forms of heart disease and stroke, as well as a longer longevity, all else being equal. That’s reason enough to start eating more healthy vegetarian meals like the ones we’re presenting here.
Lunch
A vegetarian lunch does a great job of holding you over until dinner, without weighing you down and giving you the afternoon sluggishness. Here are a group of lunch recipes that you can make somewhat quickly for a midday respite.

Collard Green Wraps with Roasted Yam – They walk you through this recipe step by step so that you can get the same picture-perfect wraps they ended up with.

The use of avocado gives you nice healthy fats, and keeps you fuller longer.
Beetroot Leaf and Yogurt Flatbreads – These flatbread sandwiches look interesting if nothing else, and they’re using a superfood that often gets overlooked, but should really be in the spotlight more: beets. They’re not using the pickled beets you find in a jar, but raw beetroot. Combining it with yogurt is a unique idea, and they look great once they’re all assembled and ready to eat.
Whole-wheat Wraps with Grilled Veggies, Feta & Hummus – Whole wheat wraps are a good start, and the grilling of the vegetables makes them taste far better than just about any other cooking method. The feta cheese adds a bit of tartness, but also has its own healthy benefits. The hummus is made from chickpeas, which help you feel full and satisfied all afternoon.They even manage to squeeze in zucchini and eggplant for good measure.
Spicy Lentil Wrap with Tahini Sauce – Both the lentils and bulgur form the bulk of this wrap, and are a perfect substitute for a meaty center. The tahini dipping sauce steals the show on this one. Wraps are just more fun when you dip them, and this sauce has flavor to spare. The red pepper flakes give it a bit of a kick to wake up your taste buds and keep you coming back for another bite.
Smashed Chickpea Greek Salad Sandwich – Whoever came up with the idea to put a Greek salad onto a sandwich was a genius. They’ve done well by adding chickpeas to it to give it some texture and adding bright and colorful tomatoes so it also looks great. The combination of olives, cucumber and spices means you’ll probably find yourself opting for this sandwich weekly.
