Check out www.vegcooking.com for hundreds of great, kitchen-tested vegetarian recipes - incredible dishes like faux chicken pot pie, meatless shepherd's pie, seitan (wheat meat) in a lemon picatta (sp?) sauce, and so on.

I don't know what you have at home to know what you can whip together quickly. If you have some pasta and tomato sauce, you'd be good to go in 20 minutes. You can roast veggies (potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, carrots, parsnips, etc.) with garlic and Italian spices (just chop the veggies so they're bite-sized, add the minced garlic & spices, and roast in the oven at around 400 for about 20 minutes. You can add whatever veggies you like - asparagus, green beans, brussels sprouts, etc.
If you have canned beans, you can cook them with a can of diced tomatoes; add cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, and salt and mash up for quick refried beans. We often have refrieds with guacamole and chips - a great quick meal. We also keep veggie dogs and veggie burgers in our freezer for a super-quick meal. I often make dishes in large quantities (chili, curries, etc.) and freeze them, so when I'm in a hurry, I just have to heat the food up.

Good luck and happy chowing!

Go through you kitchen and see what you have. Experiment with combinations of foods that you wouldn't put together right away, like zucchini and apples.
Take the things that you think will taste good together throw them all in a saute pan and cook some rice or tofu to go with it.

Or you could tale the lazy way out and have spaghetti.

I make a quick bean salad, just mix together 3 small tins of beans, (chick peas, kidney beans, butter beans or choose your own combo) and make a dressing with extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and cracked black pepper, its delicious and very filling. You could also make a vegetable soup just make sure you add lots of beans at the end to fill you up.
