Vegetarain Main Recipes

I keep an omnivorous diet, but even though I eat meat, many of my meals are actually meatless! These are my best recipes for meat-free vegetarian main dishes. Some include dairy and eggs, while others are totally vegan. Recipes include casseroles, soups, stews, pastas, roasted vegetables and more!
