Vegetarian fare doesn’t have to be boring! Think past salads and grilled veggies – there is so much more to vegetarian meals than limp spinach and boiled potatoes.
Here are five delicious, healthy and veggie-packed dishes to put on your midweek dinner roster this month:
Cooking for vegetarians? This warm rice salad recipe is a hearty main that’s bursting with an array of colours, flavours and textures. Your leftover Greek-style yoghurt from this recipe can be used as a substitute for sour cream in cakes and sauces.
Everyone loves burgers, even vegetarians! This mushroom burger recipe is made extra delicious with the addition of rich and squeaky halloumi. For a lighter meal, go bunless – simply switch the bread rolls for lettuce ‘buns’ using leftover lettuce leaves.
On the table in 25 minutes, this chilli tofu stir-fry is perfect for Meat-Free Monday. It’s gluten-free, too. If you have rice noodles in the pantry, you can use them in this recipe instead of microwavable rice.
This hearty, healthy and easy vegetable soup uses the best of Winter produce and will nourish you from the inside out. This soup can be frozen for up to 4 months and reheated as a great last-minute light meal or lunch – kids can also take it to school in a vacuum flask to keep it warm.
This homemade, healthy baked-style beans recipe is full of flavour to fill you up in the morning; or cook the beans as a side to your dinner for a great tasting alternative to potatoes.
