[quote=Anonymous]Homemade veggie burgers or falafel are my go-to. There are a thousand different recipes that offer a great balance of protein and healthy carbs - typically they include things like beans, quinoa, lentils, and sweet potato, along with veggie mix ins like carrots, squash, onion, and greens. Chili is great and there are also many healthy, veggie-heavy recipes out there. While not THE healthiest, fried rice is also an easy one that is a kid favorite and that can be veggie-heavy if you want it to be. Use brown rice and include an extra protein source like tofu to up the nutrition value. Like others have said, you don't have to do 100% pre-cooked stuff to be able to get a meal on the table fast. Pre-wash and pre-chop veggies on the weekend and make a large pot of some sort of grain, then just add the protein day-of - quick eggs, baked chicken or fish, etc.[/quote]
