Vegetarian quick meals

As a vegetarian, getting enough protein is a daily struggle. I can't seem to find quick vegetarian meals with a decent amount of protein. I'm beginning to think they don't exist. If they're quick they're usually not healthy or lack protein. If they have protein, they take hours to prepare. Any ideas on genuinely quick, healthy and tasty veggie meals?

This is technically a dip, but I eat it as a small meal 😂 lentils are great for protein - so you could swap out rice for lentils on your usual dishes, or do a lentil curry with fish!

There’s a middle eastern lentil + rice dish I’d recommend too

I would totally recommend finding a Vegetarian or Vegan community here on Whisk! I’m not sure if they have one specifically for 30-minute vegetarian/vegan meals, but they definitely have lots of recipe ideas!!

As Alesia said, you can try to find some Vegetarian communities here, and here are some suggestions: There is a vegetarian community here which you can join using this link: ( https://whi.sk/U3osC ) and another one here ( https://whi.sk/QbtuQ ) or whether you are a student or not, you may want the Vegan/Vegetarian Student Meals community as it might help find quick meals? Here's the link for that community: ( https://whi.sk/rs2ow ) These are just a few of the many vegetarian communities here on Whisk, but I hoped it helped!

Aren't beans popular for having protein as well as fiber? You could also try getting vegan meats, or get stuff that vegan meats are generally made of such as Faba beans and red Seaweed sushi as the kind used to wrap sushi roles.

I love Forks over Knives, they have a meal planning app and recipe app. They also sell their cookbooks on website. Follow on FB for great recipes.
