'there Is Life After Meat'

Eating vegetarian is easy, delicious and tasty,
     it is not weird, mushy, or bland or flavorless;
imaginative combinations of recipes can be created,
           it is not just salads but a cornucopia bountiful.

I am a vegetarian who eats eggs and dairy,
     so, technically I am a semi-vegetarian type;
but this category occasionally eats poultry and fish,
          and I don't-  protein is the key and iron is too.

I've learned how to make spring rolls yummy,
     pates, hummus and spicy sweet potato rounds;
dips, noodle bowls, stir-fry veggies, bean burgers, sauces,
          vegetable lasagna, stuffed manicotti, oh my gosh.

Oh, so awesome mac and cheese with three cheeses,
     vegetarian ravioli, tortellini, panini, quesadillas;
wraps, tacos, burritos, subs, pizzas, calzone, and chili,
         all with a little snip of herb or a pinch of this or that.

So, you see eating vegetarian is a cornucopia,
     there is an endless supply-  a fountain of food variety;
a multitude of vegetables and fruit in order to create,
           masses, heaps, piles of delicious, tasty veggie recipes.
