Can I have your best vegetarian meal ideas please?

[MacDuffsMuff]

We're not veggie but want to eat less meat as a whole, so any simple veggie midweek ideas would be most appreciated.

Pasta bakes or risottos

We've recently done the same and some of our faves are veggie lasagne, veggie omelette for a quick mid-week tea, and Halloumi burgers

Salads with roasted chickpeas and hummus.

Pasta with olives in a tomato based sauce

Veggie burger (there's lots to choose from)

Green lentil and vegetable lasagna

Sweet potato and butter bean curry

I always batch cook and freeze portions

Chickpea curry.
Lentil shepherds pie.
Mix tin tomatoes, lentils, spinach, feta. Cover with puff pastry. Bake.

Roasted veg traybake with halloumi
Risotto
Jacket potatoes with whatever toppings
Soups, bread and cheese

Oh these are great suggestions thank you. We're having chickpea curry tonight (a Ree Drummond recipe which is so easy it's embarrassing but it's tasty).

Chickpea burgers
Enchiladas - Jamie’s recipe
Frittata (we have this more in the summer, with a green salad)
Mary Berry’s lentil and veg cottage pie
Jamie’s veggie chilli
Cauliflower macaroni cheese
Spinach and ricotta pasta
Vegeree (veg version of kedgeree)
Egg fried rice
Aloo Gobi traybake
Chickpea tagine
Halloumi traybake
Lentil ragu
Tuscan bean stew

I’m a vegetarian - would highly recommend The Green Roasting Tin cookbook for easy veggie meals.

Have just ordered it @ilikebooksandplants thank you for the suggestion. I've dug out Delia's Vegetarian book from years ago, I forgot I had it but that has some great recipes too.

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's Veg Everyday is also a great book for ideas.
If the less meat is for environmental reasons it makes sense to include a reasonable amount of vegan stuff, or at least dairy-free.... Since dairy is also not great environmentally

I make this creamy lentil stew with kale and mushrooms quite often:

It's probably my dc's (ages 7 & 2) favourite meal. We aren't vegetarian, but we do eat veg a few dinners a week.
