Being a vegetarian doesn't mean you are confined to eating at home or are only allowed to eat at restaurants that cater specifically to the meat-free. with a little know- how, a vegetarian can find great, balanced meals just about anywhere!
Every type of cuisine offers a possible vegetarian option, it just might take some special adjustments when eating out, depending on the place.
Your general all-American restaurant will almost always offer a veggie burger of sorts. From Burger King to BJ's, it's almost a guarantee. There are also numerous salad, pasta, pizza, veggie stir-fries, and cheese-based dishes suitable for the meatless.
Ethnic cuisine is especially conducive toward meat-free folks. Asian foods are often heavily integrated with tofu options, from miso soup and vegetable sushi to Kung pao tofu. Spanish and Latin American foods also have choices, from quesedillas and burritos to tostadas, nachos, and your basic beans and rice. Just make sure the beans are vegetarian. Same goes with soup options - check to see what the base is made of.
The best idea is to just go and ask at the restaurants in your area. Many places will be willing to make special accommodations. Also check out websites like http://www.menupages.com to see what some major spots offer.
Happy hunting!
