So bored of everything we eat. Please inspire me!

I'm veggie, dp and dds are now meat eaters but since I do most of the shopping (online), meal planning and cooking (though dp is v good at doing prep etc) we eat veggie 99% of the time at home.

I tend to do lots of curries, chillis etc but we're all getting a bit bored of them tbh. It's also hard because dd1 won't eat anything in a creamy/cheesy sauce and I won't eat anything with tinned tomatoes, so that rules out a lot of pasta dishes for example.

Please inspire me!

Any good recipes with tofu maybe? Or something Thai-esqu? Or something with sweet potatoes which isn't a curry or a chilli? Or an exciting pie of some sort?

Yum. I love broad beans - no bugger else will eat them though!:(
They all LOVE sprouts though. :)

Oh, and there's this, which I got from StressedHEMum on here:

Slow cabbage with pasta

1 onion, chopped
some garlic
1 tblspn smoked paprika
1 head cabbage, finely shredded
1 carton sour cream
1 bag value pasta
oil and butter
salt and pepper

Fry onion and garlic in some oil and butter until soft. Add Paprika and stir about. Add cabbage and stir until coated with oil and beginning to wilt. Season. Reduce heat to very low and cover well. Cook for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Boil pasta. While pasta is cooking Add sour cream to cabbage and mix well. Add a splash of pasta cooking water to make it a bit looser. Drain pasta and stir into cabbage. serve immediately.

Absolutely divine, so much better than it sounds :)

(Reason it specifies 'value pasta' is because it was from a 'feed your family for a fiver' thread, so costs were being kept down)
