Being a vegetarian in Egypt is no easy task because almost every Oriental dish must contain some sort of animal meat. Why? I have no idea.

With the help of the Internet however, vegetarians in Egypt are now able to finally eat something other then French fries.

Here are my favorite, easy to do, light dishes. Enjoy!

1. Veggie Curry

Want something easy and delicious to cook? This 30 minute recipe will have you asking for seconds.

2. Veggie Lasagna Rolls

The only thing that may take some time is assembling all together. However, this recipe is worth it. Trust me.

3. Spinach Mashed Potato

A side dish but personally speaking, it goes with everything. Throw a bit of tofu in a pan with a one clove of garlic and two green onions and stir. Add a bit salt and pepper to taste and there you have it: A light dinner and that's that. You'll find the recipe here .

4. Grilled Parmesan Zucchini

Basically, this is heaven on earth.

Hearty, delicious and perfect for any night of the week. Once you make this, you won't stop.
