This is the Smart Girl's Guide to Going Vegetarian test post.
Welcome!
Update (2026): where to start on the SmartGirlVeg blog
Since this first post, the blog has grown into a library of teen-friendly guides and recipes. If you are new to plant-based eating, these are good places to begin:
- Five things every newbie teen vegetarian should know
- How much protein do vegetarian teens need?
- 7 Days to Veg, a step-by-step challenge for trying vegetarian eating
- Easy vegetarian and vegan recipes and nutrition basics
And of course, there is the book that started it all: The Smart Girl's Guide to Going Vegetarian, an agenda-free guide to giving meat (or more) the boot.
