SO wants to be on a vegetarian diet and I need help... I'm a good cook but I need more ideas. Honestly I could cook vegetables much more often than I do. I hate them.

Stir-fried bean sprouts. This recipe is simple. Basically, you just need to saute garlic and onions. Add sliced green beans, carrot strips, red bell pepper strips, cabbage strips and bean sprouts. Sprinkle ground black pepper and liquid seasoning. Stir-fry for 3 minutes until done.

We love this one: http://vegfrugalhousewife.com/2008/0...n-noodle-soup/

I make a simpler version by just doing the carrots, celery, tofu, and noodles. You can add any veggies like she says. SO good.

Good thing about vegetarian is you can make almost anything and just take out the meat or make it on the side for the meat eaters. DH eats meat and I don't.
I love to make black bean burgers and DH loves them too.
I make pasta bakes a lot as well just no meat. Last night I made shells with cheese asparagus and tomato sauce and it was great.
