    65+ Vegetarian Dishes

    Whether you are a strict vegetarian or trying to include more plant-based meals in your diet, this collection of tried and tested, easy vegetarian recipes will help you find foods you will love.ย 

    I personally enjoy vegetarian meals as they are faster to cook and I love adding colorful seasonal produce to my family meals. My children love these delicious vegetarian recipes that are perfectly spiced and simply delicious. One of our family favorites for busy weeknights and for entertaining is the Instant Pot Vegetable & Paneer Biryani.

    So if you are struggling with getting your kids to eat their greens or simply looking for more vegetarian options that do not just include salads, you will find plenty of options appealing to all ages. Best of all, many of these vegetarian recipes are also vegan and if not I have given easy substitutes to make them vegan.

    From my favorite Indian Curries like Easy Dum Aloo and 15-minute Palak Paneer to the protein-packed Mixed Lentils & Vegetables Khichdi and delicious Madras Lentils, you will find many of your Indian restaurant favorite dishes right here.

    And if you are like my family who cannot eat the same cuisine for more than two meals in a row, check out the better-than-restaurant Penne Alla Vodka, Aloo Gobhi, Pasta Fagioli Soup, and Spinach Artichoke Macaroni and Cheese that are perfect for dinner!

    Welcome!

    Hi, I'm Archana: a former software engineer, now a full-time blogger. I am a mother of two boys who share my love for food and cooking. Words I love to hear are, โ€œMom, whatโ€™s for dinner?โ€ The same words I say to my mom every time we speak. I live in the greater New York City Area with my husband and sons.
