Vegetarian and Vegan Grain Recipes

Grain Recipes: Any dishes that are mainly grains - e.g quinoa, rice, couscous, bulgar, and oats.

Our grain recipes include whole grains (e.g brown rice), and refined grains (e.g white rice).

Savvy Veg grain recipes don't include pasta. They do include couscous, although it's technically a pasta. Flour is made from grains, but we put it in Bread Recipes.

Nutritional science tells us that eating a variety of whole grains is basic to a balanced vegetarian diet. That means that we should eat whole grains at almost every meal. Refined grains are OK in moderation, and most of us don't need to worry about eating too much carbs.

Speaking of carbs - everybody needs carbs in their diet. Double helpings of carbs, with lots of added fat, is likely to cause weight gain. But carbohydrates by themselves, as found in whole grains, and eaten in the recommended serving sizes, won't make you fat, and will give you energy.

For diabetics, worried about carb intake, whole grains digest much more slowly than whole grain flour, and you need smaller portions. Refined flour and grains, such as white rice, or pasta are higher in carbohydrates, lower in protein, and digest more quickly than whole grains, making them not as good for a diabetic diet.

For more info on carbohydrates, download the Free Savvy Vegetarian Nutrition Report, or read the SV review of 'Carbophobia, The Scary Truth About America's Low Carb Craze', by Dr. Michael Greger.
