Vegetarian Fact:
Many ethnic dishes are naturally vegetarian dishes and full of flavor. Consider Italian: pasta and pizza, of course, but also risotto, polenta, and gnocchi and roasted, grilled, or braised vegetables for maximum flavor; French: vegetable gratins, quiches, and ratatouille; Polish pierogi with caramelized onions; Greek spanakopita; Moroccan vegetable tagine; Middle Eastern baked eggplant; and many Indian dishes such as vegetable vindaloo, red lentil dal, and vegetable samosas.
