    Introduction

    With more than 8 million vegetarians in the United States and even more of the population describing themselves as vegetarian-inclined, the necessity for meat-free recipes is on the rise. However, simply leaving the meat out of dishes is no longer enough for some conscientious consumers. Many households must now accommodate meat-eaters, vegetarians, and vegans alike.

    Also on the rise today is the consumption of fast food and restaurant-prepared meals, which can contain more fat, salt, and sugar than homemade meals. Many families do not think they have the time to prepare nutritious meals at home, but with the use of a pressure cooker, your next healthy meal may only be minutes away. This lesser-known appliance is making a comeback in kitchens across the country because it cooks ingredients in a fraction of the time a stovetop or oven would, and it helps retain key nutrients.

    Pressure cookers date back to the 1600s, when the first was invented by Frenchman Denis Papin. Pressure cookers work by allowing water to boil under pressure at higher temperatures than the normal 212°F, and locking the steam produced from the liquid in an airtight container. The hotter water and resultant steam cook foods faster. It was not until the 1940s post–World War II era that pressure cookers became popular in the United States because of their convenience — but along with the boom came the horror stories of pressure cooker accidents. The modern pressure cooker has safety mechanisms in place to prevent the seemingly common accidents that once plagued pressure cookers, and users need not be worried.

    Just because you might be looking for healthy vegetarian or vegan recipes that can be prepared quickly does not mean you have sacrifice flavor or variety. The 50 recipes here are a great start on your journey to pressure-cooking, vegetarian-style — enjoy!
