Your favorite meals with only veggies? i really need to eat better but dont really know what to do

Or a Britard joke

1 cup of chickpeas/beans
1 small onion diced
2 tomtoes chopped small
1/4 of a leafy cabbage cut into very fine strips
then mix and add seasoning of your choice
>optional improvement
add a small pear or an apple diced to the dish
eat
wa la. healthy bean salad

What makes veggies good eating is having a nice sauce or gravy. I simply steam the veggies, then add some sauce and I'm practically licking my plate clean later.

I don't have a good recipe at hand, because I usually just make shit up as I go and it's still a lot of hit and miss. Yet even when it misses, it's usually good enough for me to finish it all.

And restaurants make money when their food is tasty. Not quite so much when it's good for you.

Stir fry. It's probably not going to be only veggies but you can make a primarily veggie based stir fry. With brocolli, cabbage, carrot, onion, rice/rice-noodles etc... Add tofu or chicken or something for protein.

Ramen. I don't care for bok choy in my ramen, but I love leeks in it. Shredded carrot, onion, frozen peas/corn, and mushrooms. I also make batches of fried rice, but I put the same type of vegetables in it.

Lol

Minestrone

Vichyssoise, but it's a cream soup so idk if that qualifies as "eating better".

I love veggies, man. Made this the other day. Roasted sweet potatoes, sautéed zucchini, spinach, peas and green beans. Seasoned with garlic, salt, oregano and cayenne pepper. I posted this because I like to combine veggies for different nutrient combos, which I think this plate illustrates.

Then I flip it. Tomorrow, I'm planning on eating beets, carrots, asparagus, and artichoke, along with an avocado. Every day, rotate the nutrient intake. For example, the day after I might go chickpea kale salad (tomatoes, alfafa sprouts, broccoli), with a Greek yogurt tzatziki. Keep rotating.

This is just me fucking around food-wise, but I've been getting into mixing raw ginger and serrano peppers with a Sambal Oelek base...looking for that +1 heat...

crisps

Veggie soup is the best. it doesn't really taste like vegetables. tastes like salt and seasoning.

>spinach, peas, and green beans look perfectly green without a hint of yellowing

nice mate

Found this on youtube one day a few years ago. It's one of my weekly go-to's now. It's a lentil and vegetable curry.

Make Kimchi.

Shakshuka

2 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, diced
large handful of sliced mushrooms
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1 cup diced red bell peppers
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and sliced
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
28-oz can (about 3 cups) crushed San Marzano tomatoes, or other high-quality plum tomatoes. Of course you can use fresh tomatoes in season.
1/2 cup water or broth, or as needed
6 large eggs (or as many as you can fit in you pan)
crumbled feta cheese and fresh parsley to finish

>so good even non-vegetarians like it

boil your whole dinner, nagger

and avoid carbs

If OP wanted to ask Veeky Forums, they would go there.

Steaming tastes better than boiling and doesn't lose as many nutrients.

>Boiling anything other then rice and pasta
How disgusting can you be?

I like to eat a vegetarian lentil soup that I make sometimes
actually I usually put some meat in it but if I don't have any then I do it without and it still tastes good

1 cup of dried lentils and 1 cup of dried beans and 1/2 cup of rice

sometimes I put a cup of hominy in it too. hominy is some weirdass type of corn that tastes way better than normal corn. and I always put either spinach or cabbage in it. onions too if I got em. you can throw anything in there really

add water to it, several cups. I don't got an exact number I just wing it at this part, depends on what you put in it

I spice it with 1 tablespoon of garlic powder and 1 tablespoon of chili powder and 1 tablespoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of oregano and 1/2 tablespoon of cumin and 4 or 5 good squirts of sriracha sauce, and a little bit of balsamic vinegar

bring it to a boil and then turn the heat down to low so it's just simmering, then let it cook for an hour

it's ready to eat right away, but the beans might be a little stiff but edible. after it soaks overnight the beans will absorb the juices and be softer, but you might need to add a little more water to it then. don't soak your beans overnight before you cook with them, that shit is for chumps. it makes the beans tasteless. I'm willing to put up with slightly stiff beans if it means they won't taste like shit

hey, i made this thread over here Is this steaming rule only for certain types of vegetables?

Baked potatoes and brussel sprouts

I forgot to mention you need to put some olive oil in it, like a few tablespoons worth

this will last me 3 feeds, eating night 2 right now

oh yeah, eat with rice too

>pehtaters

Just a bunch of roasted vegetables.

Not a full meal, more like side dish, but I have a couple you can make together:

Slice an eggplant lenghtwise half a centimeter thick
Brush or drizzle each slice with olive oil, add a bit of salt and garnish with parsley
Broil it in the oven on high heat until it softens or until it gets brown and crispy, both are delicious

Slice a carrot and a zucchini lengthwise very thinly, like with a vegetable peeler, so it looks like tagliatelle
Put the slices on aluminium foil, add a couple slices of tomato, put some salt and other spices to taste, then drizzle some olive oil
Close the aluminium foil to form a watertight papillote and in the oven it goes.
(Usually I put a salmon filet in there with some whole pink pepper so cooking time is adapted to the fish)
