Teen wants less meat more plants but so fussy!

Family of four, DC aged 12 & 15.

15 yo watched film at school and finally ready to cut down his protein intake. We currently eat a lot of chicken based meals, usually very flavourful and or spicy as both DH and DS have indelicate taste buds.

I'd love to eat more fish but DD not keen. Don't want to get into situation where I'm making more than one meal.

Apart from stir fries and pasta, can anyone recommend any great family vegetarian favourites?

Here's what one or other won't eat:
Mushrooms
Aubergines
Avocados
Olives
Goats cheese
Blue cheese

DS not a big fan of tomato based pasta sauces but suspect he'd run with an arrabiata type flavour.
