Attn: vegetarians--what foods/recipes do you recommend?

Question

I am really sick of my usual meals, which frequently consist of rice and beans. I don't know what to eat. I've been skipping out on meals for this reason for the past week. I would greatly appreciate any recommendations. Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

Buy the FANTASTIC BRAND taco filling, or sloppy joe filling, it is so good and on the back of the boxs there are some really great recipes.

Answer 2

Mexican! Quesedillas and fajitas don't even require rice & beans. :-)  Just use interesting peppers, onions, mushrooms and top with some guac.  Even my meat-loving husband doesn't complain when we eat these things veggie style.

Answer 3

How do you feel about butternut squash? I've got a fabulous recipe for garlicky butternut squash with penne.

Plus, it's summer soon, so fresh veggies will be plentiful... mmm, spinach salad with blackberries and strawberries, grilled eggplant, fresh corn on the cob.

Found this, too - http://vegkitchen.com/recipes-galore.htm

Answer 5

I love eating Asian-style foods. I am a stir-fry junkie. I recently made [Thai] sweet and sour tofu. It was delish!

If you're not too juiced about cooking, you could always buy some frozen vegetables so you don't have a long prep time- many brands have "stir-fry" or "Asian" blends. Then all you have to do is cook the rice (or quinoa!) and if you'd like, add a protein source like tofu, fake chicken or fake beef.

I also make lo mien noodles and vegetables and homemade egg rolls.

Answer 6

I am eating a salad now called Bulgur Chickpea Salad.  I found it on allrecipes.com.  

Your most nutrient-dense foods come from raw leafy green veggies.  Make a huge salad (romaine, green and red leaf, spinach) adding other green veggies (celery, peas, broccoli, peppers), non-green veggies (onions, tomatoes, cauliflower), beans (chickpeas, black beans, pinto beans) and raw seeds.

Get the book I have listed in my sources.  It's the perfect book for vegetarians, with recipes.

Hope this helps.
