If you don't eat meat, there are lots of other protein sources such as nuts and pulses. But do make sure that you get plenty of vitamins and minerals in your diet, including iron - as well as eggs, if you eat dairy, other non-meat sources of this vital mineral include dried fruit such as apricots and fortified breakfast cereals.
These recipes may contain dairy products, which can sometimes be omitted or replaced with a vegan alternative, if preferred.
Recipes may also use processed foods. Vegetarians should check the specific product labels to be certain of their suitability, especially items such as pastry, breads, stock, stock cubes and sauces.
Some alcoholic drinks, including wine also use animal-derived products in their production.
If you do eat dairy products, eggs make the ultimate simple meal for one and can easily be cooked in the slow cooker without the need to watch over them while they cook; try making Egg, Lentil and Coconut Curry.
Eggs can usually be kept for up to 3 weeks (check the 'use by' date), so make great fridge fodder.
