| spinach and cheese souffle. Great with a little bread, salad, green beans, or broccoli. |

We do a lot of quiche. It's easy to make, stores well in both fridge and freezer, and is super easy to re-heat on nights we're exhausted and don't have energy to make a big meal.
I also really like this walnut-mushroom casserole (for similar reasons): http://www.food.com/recipe/mushroom-walnut-au-gratin-109626 |

Think culinary traditions with strong vegetarian history.
Thai or Indian curry. Middle eastern stew made with onions, tomatoes, zucchini, peppers, chickpeas, either with sweet potato or served over WW couscous. your choice on spice blend, but I usually use harissa, cumin, garlic, & pepper. Sprinkle with pumpkin or sunflower seeds for more nutrition. Lentils served over spinach with a fried egg on top. |

Rice and beans. You can use brown rice instead of white, black beans, some seasoning, plus or minus peppers, onions.
Stir fry is another favorite. Either use tofu or break up veggie burgers. there are a bazillion Indian dishes -- spinach and cottage cheese, chick peas and tomatoes. Eat with rice or pita bread. Another high protein option is a nut loaf. Do a google search for a recipe or buy a mix. or do a really good salad with walnuts and eggs (if you eat eggs). I don't eat red meat, poultry, pork or lamb, and I still eat very little pasta. I do eat fish once a week, though. |
