Healthy recipes

Vegetable-forward cooking that earns its place on flavour, not virtue. 190 recipes, in a suggested order.

Lean proteins, vegetables and lighter versions of everyday food make up this category. The label describes the cooking, not a health claim. Each recipe calculates its nutrition from its own ingredients and says how far to trust the figures, and its diet labels say whether they hold as written or only with a swap.

The 190 recipes come from 35 cuisines; the largest groups are American (73), Italian (13), International (11), Indian (10) and Japanese (9). Of these, 76 are ready in 30 minutes or less, start to finish; the quickest are Lemon Arugula Salad with Parmesan (5 min), Lemon Tahini Dressing (5 min) and Lemon Vinaigrette (5 min). For 43, the method times a wait such as rising, chilling or marinating, and the time at the top of the recipe includes it. By difficulty: 182 easy and 8 medium.

As written, 141 are vegetarian, 85 vegan, 115 gluten-free and 119 dairy-free. Another 20 meet a diet label only with a swap the recipe names, and the recipe says which.
