Lots man. You should be able to make good veggy dishes as a cook. I love pepper salad, roast veggies, tomato with salt and pepper in the oven, cabbage anything.

>>21864905
No

>>21864948
ah, you know that's bs
there are plenty of vegetarian foods that go great with meat

>>21864940
>> veggie stir fry, particularly the spicy eggplant dish from PF Changs
I went there recently and I don't remember seeing that on the menu, what name is it listed under?

>>21865203
Well shit, it looks like they discontinued it in 2024 :(
The copycat I’ve used is this one: https://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/recs/494/PF-Changs-Stir-Fried-Spicy-122604.shtml
Fair warning, the food.com copycat looks like garbage! Picture isn’t even appetizing.
Also, none of them suggest sweating the eggplant before frying but i know that’s what i did because I always do that. It helps reduce the potential for soggy texture.

For me, it's a falafel plate.

>>21864905
Marco’s vegetable lasagne isn’t bad.

>>21865554

well made falafel is incredible
there's also a choolaah near me that makes a nice paneer wrap

Make those meat dishes with vegetables instead is different than a portobello burger or using weird soy crumbles. They are their own dish

The texture of soy crumbles or lentils is gross and not like beef! Eating a portobello between two pieces of bread is also bad texture and not like meat, it is not a good dish.
Eggplant Parmesan is goood, it’s a good use of that vegetable. Vegetarian lasagna would just use tomato sauce and not bolognese, are you an Italian with a stick up your ass about your mid dishes though?
Is that your real problem lmao

Layered tofu skin stuffed with mushrooms, typically pan fried. Great hot or cold.

Eggplant parm was the original dish. Chicken parm came later and is also worse.

>>21864905

Other way around, friend.
Chicken Parm replaced eggplant with chicken and does it badly. The original is eggplant.

I've run outta space : (

It's not a "dish", vegetarian ex would make a bagel sandwich with dijonnaise, meunster cheese, romaine, and roma tomato. Have that once in a while, or add bacon

>>21864905
Made an Afghani bean curry that was pretty fire

it’s really not all it’s cracked up to be. ever wonder why there’s a Waffle House but no Falafel House?

>>21866566
When I was in Japan I went to a place called Falafel Brothers in Shibuya Parco (though I'm told their original location is in Roppongi). I had one of the best slices of vegan pizza there that I'd had in a while.

>>21865871
What happens if you add a 16th bean?

>>21865856
That's a lot of vegetarian dishes… that only use, like, four vegetables between them lol

Cauliflower-cheese
Broccoli in cheese sauce
simple old boiled cabbage with butter on it
Brussels sprouts in butter sauce
split pea soup, especially with big chunks of ham in it but it's good even without so it counts
roasted butternut squash or acorn squash with butter and brown sugar

There are lots of good things made with vegetables. "vegan" food isn't.

>>21865538
Hummus.
>>21866566
There's a Pita Inn which has falafel as well as shawarma, oh, and great hummus too.

Good chain, I hope it grows and spreads. It's about a 40 mile round trip for me to go there, so I only go when I have to get some computer parts from the Microcenter that is sorta "near" it, like about 75% of the way to it.

>>21866704
Sounds good. At least there are some other good Middle Eastern places near me. There's one right near the house where I grew up, and I've loved their veggie combo since I was a kid, though now I have to ask them to substitute tahini for the tzatziki since I'm vegan. They also have something called a hummus shake, which is better than it sounds.

Well-simmered and spicy Calaloo

>>21866590
>16th bean
We don't talk about that.

A small serving of rice, beans, and corn is a great snack.

>>21864940
You can easily mimic the flavor and texture of meat with vegetarian cooking.

>You can easily mimic the flavor and texture of meat with vegetarian cooking.
No you can't, stop being so delusional.

>>21866801
It depends on the meat.

>>21865694
that is fowl

>>21866801
I don’t agree and I’m not even a big fan of meat. Just particular about textures.

>>21865813
this nigga gets it

Cucumber salad is a good one, just seedless cucumbers, red onion, garlic, dill, vinegar and a little salt and pepper. Has basically no calories but a ton of flavor so you can eat with impunity.

baked pasta with tons of cheese (ricotta inside, mozzarella on top)
fried potatoes and eggs
quesadillas
chips and refried beans

>>21867367

This. I am quite happy with a falafel plate. A lil scoop of silky and slightly smoky baba ghanouj eggplant dip with it, too.

One of my favorite pizzas is the Argentine-Italian creation of "Fugazzetta" with that hint of fresh oregano and all the oven-charred, impossibly thin shaved onions, and buttery cheeses. I have only had this in Miami.
