About this collection
Lacto-ovo-vegetarian recipes tested in our kitchen - dishes that include dairy and eggs but no meat, poultry, or fish. This section spans everyday breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks, and desserts across cuisines: Turkish vegetable dishes from Food Editor Damla Sengul, Latin American vegetarian recipes from Andrea, and traditional Ecuadorian dishes from Mirian Montalvo.
Recipes are macro-calculated per serving using the Nutritionix database. Because vegetarians typically get complete protein from dairy and eggs alongside legumes and whole grains, most vegetarian recipes here don't need special protein engineering the way vegan ones do - but we still flag protein content on every card. Nutrients worth attention on vegetarian eating (iron, B12, omega-3, zinc, vitamin D) are addressed in our longer-form articles and food lists.
