Egg roll bowl with edamame for the protein, and a side of peanut noodles.

Tofu made into croutons, and served on a caesar salad with shell pasta tossed with ricotta with red sauce over it.

The smashed edamame toast from this list: https://rainbowplantlife.com/20-minute-high-protein-vegan-meals/

Tacos made with lentils with taco seasoning instead of ground beef.

a CAVA style bowl with hummus mixed with brown rice as the base, and roasted veggies, feta, vegetarian meatballs (buy or make), and fresh tomatoes and cucumbers as toppings.

Chilaquiles (if he'll eat a mild enchilada sauce) with black beans and a fried egg as toppings.

What's your process for making tofu croutons?

Indian food is very vegetarian-friendly. You can make it mild, but still full of flavor. My kids can't handle much heat but will happily eat dal and rice, aloo gobi, butter paneer/ saag paneer, chana masala, etc.

Paneer tikka kebabs. Even the die-hard carnivores gobble these up at my parties.
