[quote=Anonymous]My DD as been a vegetarian for a few years. Initially, she was on the white carb train - pasta, rice, potatoes - but she's gradually added more variety and veggies. Protein is always an issue as well as Vitamin D. Our pediatrician recommended using a multi-vitamin after blood work results at her annual checkup (per my request). I don't like to cook but picking recipes and cooking together on the weekends has been fun. I like the Moosewood cookbook, a classic, but check your local library as there are plenty of updated options. There are also several great food bloggers. We like Smitten Kitchen mostly because her recipes are simple and she also has some amazing desserts which is always of great interest for my teen. In fact, she often likes to find a dessert recipe first. Right now, she's eating a lot of soups, which are great with this weather and they're one pot, easy clean/heat up options. Thai, Mexican, Indian and Italian are all veggie friendly. I haven't turned her completely lose in the kitchen yet, but she enjoys the few dishes she makes on her own. Good luck and have fun with your DD.[/quote]
