I used to be a Vegetarian, so I found a lot of yummy recipes without meat. Here's a couple I made a lot :)
Veggie Curry
5 cloves garlic
One 3-inch chunk peeled, fresh ginger
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon whole cumin seeds
1/4 heaping teaspoon whole cloves
10 cardamom pods
8 whole allspice
One 3 inch long cinnamon stick, broken in half
1 bay leaf
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/2 jalapeno, or more to taste, in one piece
1/2 cup whole, peeled tomatoes (with puree) roughly chopped
1/2 cup whole milk yogurt
2 1/2 cups water
2 teaspoons kosher salt
6 small red new potatoes (about 10 ounces), quartered
1 1/2 heaping cups small cauliflower florets
4 ounces fresh green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained
Serving suggestion: Basmati rice and chutney
In a small food processor (mini-chopper), combine the garlic and ginger and puree into a paste. Set aside.
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the cumin seeds, cloves, cardamom, allspice, cinnamon stick, and bay leaf and cook, stirring constantly, until toasted and fragrant and the cinnamon stick unfurls, about 30 seconds. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic-ginger paste, curry powder, and jalapeno and cook, stirring, until lightly browned and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato and yogurt and cook, stirring, until they separate from the oil and there is a distinctive sizzling sound, as the sauce "fries" in the oil, about 7 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring, for about 1 minute more.
Add the water, salt, and potatoes and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the cauliflower, green beans, and chickpeas, bring to a boil, and cook, uncovered, until the vegetables are tender and the liquid has thickened, about 5 minutes more. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve with rice and chutney.
Cook's Note: You may add or substitute any number of vegetables as you like in this recipe. Okra or any sort of sturdy green, such as kale, would be welcome additions.

I made up a stew that tastes like bolognese but with mushrooms instead. it goes like this:
Ingredients:
2 handfuls mushrooms
1 red onion
1 red pepper
1 tin tomato puree
1 tin tomatoes
2 vegetable stock
peanuts
allspice
thyme
salt
liquid seasoning
nandos Peri Peri marinade (or hot pepper sauce, but the marinade is better)
garlic granules
Method:
1. Wash mushrooms thoroughly and place in a pot.
2. Cut onion in half and dice one half. Put into the pot.
3. Crumble one vegetable stock cube into the pot.
4. Fill pot halfway with water. Add some oil.
5. Add Peri Peri marinade, few drops liquid seasoning and salt.
6. Cover with lid and cook for 15 minutes. (keep checking on it so the water doesn't flow onto the range.)
7. Cut half onion into half again and put into a blender.
8. Add tomato puree and tinned tomato to the blender.
9. Cut pepper in half, remove seeds and add to blender.
10. Add peanuts, allspice, salt, thyme and second vegetable stock to the blender.
11. Blend until smooth.
12. Pour into the pot and add one cup of water.
13. Stir and simmer for 10 mins.
Serve with rice, bread or whatever you want it with! :)

Fillet of Vegetarian/Vegan served rare with a good salad and chips. If with hot vegetables, then courgettes and mushrooms sauteed in butter and garlic. Good home made chips are of-course a must!

i loveee vegan tacos! we make home made tortillas, spanish rice, beans, salsa, guacamole, and put cut up lettuce, jalapenos and black olives on top of it all. mmmm tacos :) i also love spaghetti squash in (vegan) pesto sauce or (vegan) pasta sauce. hmm i have a lot. i just love food! there are so many dishes that can be converted into veg*n meals. i like the dishes i listed above because they are healthy, vegan (of course) and they dont make me feel like an odd ball when i eat with the rest of my omni family.

Vegetarian Pad Thai.
Now that I think about it, I think that's what I am going to have for lunch. Thanks for the suggestion.
(I'm not veggie/vegan, but the veg. version is better because, well, you get more vegetables! And they are SO good!)
