I’m Mexican and we have a ton of flavorful vegetarian meals

While I agree, the worst restaurant I have ever been to was a vegan "Mexican" restaurant. The food was cooked without any spices or even salt! You were supposed to put this foul-smelling brown sauce of their own creation, which we declined to do. It was the most bland, tasteless food I have ever had in my life. If I wasn't so against wasting food if at all possible, I wouldn't have choked it down.

I hope that doesn't turn too many people off of actually decent vegetarian Mexican food considering it was in the middle of L.A.

Yea that's why I prefer vegetarian over vegan. A ton of the classic vegetarian dishes that are amazing rely on dairy and other animal products that aren't directly meat. From simple things like quesadillas to sopes vegetarianos and enchiladas.

It's all about spices though, I'm dissaponted in that restaurant. Mole Poblano is quite literally all spices and chilis.

Out of curiosity I googled vegetarian Mexican recipes and I'm a bit disappointed there was non of the classics that I cook on the top pages. It's a lot of nuvegetarian recipes, which there's nothing wrong with but they all seemed sorta samey.
