veggie evening meals

[Littlebird88]

Teenager has been veggie for a few months and I'm hating making two meals. I also am.not a huge fan f the quorn or soya replacers for all meals.Dont mind them once or twice a week.
so look I g for ideas or recipes for us all.

Falafels in pita with salad
Mushrooms stuffed with red onion, blue cheese and rice
Veggie chilli
Sweet potato and red pepper curry
Roasted veg frittata
Spinach and ricotta lasagne
Mediterranean veg pasta bake
Shakshuka
Stir fry with cashews
Carrot and kidney bean burgers

Morrocan tagine (sort of). Beans/ lentils/ pulses and vegetables (I like peppers, carrots, aubergine, sweet potato, squash), chopped tomatoes, vegetable stock, garlic, onions, spices, dried fruit (apricots & raisins), dollop of honey.

Really lovely, full of all the good stuff, very filling, easy to cook (fry off onions and garlic with spices and stick everything in a pot). Can separate some off for your teenager and then have chicken on the side for meat eaters.

Serve with lemon couscous and Greek yoghurt.

Saganaki prawns - heaven
Keralan fish curry with lemon rice

Had Quorn chicken nuggets and southern fried burgers recently. The kids though the nuggets were from McDonalds and the burgers were really nice too and I usually hate Quorn products.

Lentil curry, omelette and jacket potato, tofu stir fry, sausage casserole, bean chilli, bean Fajitas.

Mushroom stroganoff.
Veggie lasagna.
Pasta with tinned tomatoes and whatever vegetables you have to hand.

Joe wicks lean in 15 veggies has some great recipes and we are not vegetarian!
I did the ultimate burger tonight and DH said it was delicious.

www.hungryhealthyhappy.com/10-minute-chickpea-and-spinach-curry/ - it is amazing!

Just all of this... the best cookery book I have ever found!

Veggie pasta, veggie curries, use the chicken piece quorn in enchiladas (you can't tell), things like sausages or chops and cook a veggie option

^^ They are not veggie though!

Chickpea and spinach curry
Bean chilli fajitas with guacamole
Aubergine parmigiana
Vegetable chow mein with mushrooms
Stuffed peppers
Linda McCartney sausage rolls, beans and wedges
Quiche or frittata
Lentil mousaka

I don't think prawns or fish curry will go down well with a vegetarian. My current two faves are mushroom and Stilton pie and black bean and quinoa chilli.

I came on to say chickpea and spinach curry too. My absolute favourite. I'm veggie but the rest of the family aren't so I tend to make a veggie alternative to whatever they are having.

I made a tofu and veg stir fry tonight and my teenage (non-veggie) som kept nicking bits of tofu off my plate so might be worth trying something like that?

Other things I make are:

Butter bean chilli
Baked squash rubbed with jerk seasoning
Baked peppers stuffed with quinoa or cous cous
Salt and pepper tofu
Garlic mushrooms on toast
Tomato pasta with chopped up veggie sausages
Sweet potato and red onion bhajis on flatbreads with loads of salad

Fish isn’t vegetarian

I use lentils instead of mince
Lentil chilli
Lentil spag Bol
Lentil shepherds pie

All manner of curries, made an amazing saag aloo recently
Making Panang tofu this week.

Bruschetta/Cous cous/roast Mediterranean veg salad with hallumi/chickpea salads

Falafel in pitta with hummous
Fajitas/enchiladas with veg and pulses
Spanakopita (I’m vegan and miss it)
Nothing wrong with egg and chips occasionally
Cheese omelettes
Home made bean burgers

Loads!!

Palak paneer and rice
Black bean and corn tacos w. guacamole, salsa and cheese
Fritatta and salad
Cheesy pasta bake
Stir fry with fried egg

Have a look at the Gosh rainge of food - things like carrot and coriander bakes, spinach and pinenut bites, that sort of thing. Good to use with veg and potatoes etc. Can be found in morrisons or online.

rainge = range

Oooooops sorry, I am clearly the only idiot who though vegetarians eat fish!

Embarrassed!
