Vegetarian Dishes products for sale online in Zambia

A vegetarian dish includes vegetables, fruits, dried beans and peas, grains, seeds and nuts. People who follow vegetarian diets can get all the nutrients they need from these. However, they must be careful to eat a wide variety of foods to meet their nutritional needs.

The vegetarian diet has gained widespread popularity in recent years. In Zambia, many restaurateurs are supporting the veganism trend despite some initially seeing it as a threat. The number of restaurants opening that focus exclusively on plant-based diets has grown rapidly in the past decade or so.

There are various forms of vegetarianism, each of which differs in their restrictions. The most common types include:

• Lacto-ovo-vegetarian diet - Eliminates meat, fish and poultry but allows eggs and dairy products.

• Pescetarian diet -Eliminates meat and poultry but allows fish and sometimes eggs and dairy products.
• Vegan diet - Eliminates meat, fish, poultry, eggs and dairy products, as well as other animal-derived products, such as honey.
• Flexitarian diet - A mostly vegetarian diet that incorporates occasional meat, fish or poultry.
