I'm vegetarian. Personally I tend to prefer normal recipes that don't happen to include meat vs. "vegetarian" recipes. Things like:
Pizza with onions, basil, etc.
Cheese enchiladas
Spaghetti with marinara
Fettuccine alfredo
Bean and cheese burrito or chalupa
Baked potato (with Bacos)
Notice no tofu on the list! These are all things anyone might order in a restaurant, not specifically for vegetarians.
Vegetarian cookbooks consistently seem to add in tofu, mushrooms, or various vegetables where they are neither needed nor tasty. For example chili. Chili is pinto, black, or kidney beans, tomatoes, chilies, seasoning, and meat. If you make it without the meat, why the hell do recipes add cucumbers or carrots? Just use two kinds of beans instead of choosing one.
Come to think of it, black beans instead of meat works well in a lot of things, including tacos.
