What Vegetarians Eat All Day (And It’s Not Just Salad!)

Almost without fail, any time a runner tells me that he or she is really thinking about giving this vegetarian thing a try but is afraid to make the leap, it’s one of three questions that’s holding him or her back: It's not just salad and bread, either.

Will I have to actually cook? Do I have to eat salad all day? How am I going to get enough nutrition (especially protein) to support my training?

Let’s handle the first one right now: the answer is yes. You have to cook your own food. Unless your spouse does all the cooking and he or she is on board with your crazy plan, you’re going to have to learn to cook. (Here “learn” is an overstatement; all you really need to be able to do is follow directions.)

It’s simply not possible in most parts of the world to get the variety of healthy vegetarian foods you need from a takeout window or microwaveable meals. But cooking is fun, and lots of people who have never done it start cooking for this reason and find that they love it. (In a future email, I’ll provide some resources for those of you who think a Dutch oven is what it’s called when…well, you know.)

So that’s out of the way. Let’s look at the next two questions.
