Plant based meal inspiration

[picklemepopcorn]

I'm trying to go plant based, with a little resistance from DS1. I'm so used to planning from the meat that I find it hard.

What are your go to plant based meals?

I like vegetable chilli

Risotto with peas, garlic and cheese

I like sweet potatoes, but what to have with them?

Help!

Sweet potatoes work well in a satay www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/satay-sweet-potato-curry or in/with a curry www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/vegan-chickpea-curry-jacket-potato
You could also serve them with veggie chilli and guacamole www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/sweet-potato-jackets-guacamole-kidney-beans

Lentil shepherds pie
Falafel
Lentil dhal
Chickpea curry
Italian bean stew www.deliciousmagazine.co.uk/recipes/italian-bean-casserole/
Lentil stew
Chilli bean pie
Jamie Oliver’s vegetarian bean enchiladas
Bean/lentil burgers
Lentil ragu
Lentil meatballs

Thank you!

At the risk of sounding ungrateful, it all looks rather 'beany' to someone new to it- I'm struggling to make dishes feel different from each other.

I suppose I have

Curry
Chilli
Roast veg
Risotto
Pasta pesto or tomato sauces.
Leeks/cauliflower with cheese sauce.

So I need to do something like nutballs/beanburgers to add variety.

I'll look closer at your suggestions!

Ha! Looking more closely I see felafel, bean burgers and lentil meatballs and a pie!

Thank you!
