What is the ideal vegetarian diet plan in pregnancy?

Eating well: There is no ideal vegetarian diet but mindful eating. Of the 7-9servings of veggies/fruits you need, 3 should be dark greens, 1-2 cruciferous, 1 serving of onion/garlic/mushroom, and then the variety that remains. Make sure you get protein about 0.4-0.5grams/pound you weigh). That's from beans, legumes, lentils, nuts, quinoa and eat whole grains. You can also eat dairy (1-2servings) and eggs.
