Welcome to this list!

The issue of allergies and vegetarin foods has been discussed several
times since this list started. Actually, I think the general consenus
on cooking for most vegetarians was that it wasn't that difficult as
it was a common medieval practice during fast days. Many medieval
recipes are available in versions for both meat and meatless days.
However, some modern vegatarians do seem to take it further than the
usual medieval meatless restrictions.

For some vegatarian recipes, you might be interested in looking at
this file in the FOOD section of my Florilegium:
