Thank you, all! I'm not yet sure which option to choose for the big dinner but I'm definitely getting hungry thinking of all these options that are way more creative than anything I was coming up for.

For extra fancy serve them a la napolitana with a slice of melted mozzarella and a slice of tomato on top

Google for "Spaghetti with Paneer Balls" or "Paneer Kofta" recipes.

Add in Italian seasoning in the paneer when you are making balls/koftas out of them. Amazing taste.

Adding: I'd do that if I was specifically after protein. If I wanted to just round out the dish, I'd do those mushroom meatballs.

Cheese and/or toasted walnuts. Chickpeas and lentils with pasta doesn’t sound good at all.

Pasta with chickpeas.

Best with orecchiette or small shell pasta, you are essentially making a sauce out of pureed chick peas or white beans.

Cover bottom of large skillet with olive oil and sautee 3 cloves of minced garlic and dried rosemary, then turn off heat and mix in one can of whole, rinsed chick peas.

Puree two cans of rinsed chick peas (add water as needed) to create thick liquid sauce - add to pan with oil and whole beans. Simmer on low flame about 10 minutes or so, stirring often, add cooked pasted and simmer a few more minutes, add salt to taste.

Zucchini is not a protein.

I used oven-roasted tofu once in lieu of meat in my spaghetti with red sauce. It was surprisingly good and very easy.
