There are many different types of vegetarians. At its core, a vegetarian diet consists of fruits, vegetables, legumes, seeds, nuts and plant-based proteins. You won’t find meat or seafood in this diet! Each portion is perfectly sized to be no more than 800 calories and filled with protein and fiber. You’ll enjoy good fats and have your unique nutritional needs supported.
