Root vegetables

For better or worse, zucchini is a common ingredient in vegan meals, particularly when used as a meat alternative in veggie burger patties. What should a vegetarian who dislikes zucchini do? A great alternative in this situation is beetroot, which is also a great color substitution (the recipe for the wildly famous Beyond Meat burger incorporates beet juice). However, you can cook a beet burger without going to the supermarket. Grain, beet, legume, spice, and binding ingredients are all that is needed.

Use celeriac or parsnips as a substitute for zucchini in soup recipes if you find yourself in this situation. These vegetables have a richer flavor than zucchini, so you should be aware of that if you've never tried them. Celery root, often known as celery, has an earthier flavor than celery stalk. While carrots are cream-colored, parsnips are less sweet and occasionally peppery. As a result, they are fantastic choices if you want to give your soups a little spice.
