Hi

Looking for new ideas for vegetarian meals for 1. Tend to make the same things over and over again mainly sweet potato, chickpea and spinach curry and roasted buttersquash risotto (amongst other things).
Anyone got any suggestions?

Pasta (of any type) with a homemade tomato sauce.

How veggie are you? Lacto? Vegan?

I'll eat anything apart from meat and fish!
Although not so keen on mushrooms, celery and aubergines.

Root vegetable and veggie sausage stew
Bean burritos or fajitas
Lentil Dal
Jacket Potatoes with whatever filling you like
Pitta Pizza
Pasta with roasted vegetables
Ratatouille
Peanut Soup
Beans and rice

They're all the quick meals I do quite regularly

And I was going to suggest a mushroom risotto

- Macaroni cheese
- Vegetable kebabs (peppers, tomatoes, onions, courgette, erm, mushrooms )
- Stir fry
- Stuffed peppers
- Butternut squash curry?

How about Nutburgers ?

6 slices of brown bread
1 onion finely chopped
1 oz grated cheese
1 oz melted butter
1 egg
4 ozs chopped mixed nuts of your choice
salt and pepper
Tear bread into pieces, and place in a large food processor with everything else. Blitz for a few seconds, just to combine. Taste for seasoning. Shape into patties and fry in a little oil, 3-4 mins. each side. Nice hot or cold.

A lovely dish I have often is chickpeas in a tomato based sauce (I use salsa or make my own) with melted cheese on top. It's lovely.
I also like to mix a little bit of pepper sauce in with pasta. It sounds odd but it's really nice with peas, peppers etc.

If you look at the 'What's for Dinner' thread, there's a few vegetarians who post in there so you might some ideas.

Buy a copy of Madhur Jaffrey's World Vegetarian Cookbook.

You'll never be short of ideas ever again.

Although im not a veggie, I often make all vegetable meals due to it being cheaper. Some of my favorite are;

Bean & veg chilli with sour cream & tortilla chips
Bean & pepper fajitas, tacos, enchiladas etc
Veg curry
Broccoli & potatoe cheese
Vegetable stir fry (baby sweetcorn, fine beans, bean shoots, peppers etc)

Really simple. Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a pan. Fry 2 cloves garlic, one onion - chopped, 1 cup broccoli florets, 1 cup cauliflower florets, a dash of cayenne pepper and 1/2 tbsp minced ginger. Add 1 pint of vegetable stock, 6 tbsp of peanut butter and 1 tin of chopped tomatoes. Simmer for 10-15 minutes and serve.

It's really good with rice stirred in too.

One of my fav veg recipies is Curried Nut Roast with a home-made fresh tomato sauce, served with roast potatoes and Veg, very filling and feels like a full roast dinner.
