    Salads are probably the quickest and easiest meal options. Vegetables with hummus or a veggie/hummus wrap. Tofu scramble. Quinoa with roasted veggies.

    If you prep in advance, you can cook a lot at one time and freeze it in individual portions so all you have to do for lunch and dinner is defrost a serving of food. The crockpot isn't quick but it is very easy and if you start it in the morning, it will be ready for dinner. Chili is super good in the crockpot, as well as dried beans and then for dinner all you have to do is cook up some quinoa or brown rice to go with it.

    Quick Fix Vegan is also a good cookbook that has a lot of recipes that can be prepared in less than 30 minutes.

    I like Eggplant parmigiana for dinners sometimes, sweet potato and black bean burritos, homemade hummus and veggies for lunch, spinach stuffed shells, avocado on toast, gluten free pasta with alfredo sauce and peas...
    I recommend using pinterest for searching, you can google of course, all recipes and if you want very low calorie delicious veg/vegan desserts go to chocolatecoveredkatie.com she also has some dinner options and breakfast too!

    I'm a vegetarian too, and a BIG food lover. Some of my fave low-cal "recipes" (I'm one of those improvisational cookers so I don't really follow recipes):

    - baked sweet potato with black bean salsa
    - Kale and mushroom stroganoff
    - Tofu and veggie stir fry with sweet chili sauce
    - Any type of stuffed squash
    - Spaghetti squash with meatless balls
    - Quiche/ egg casseroles with veggies
    - Black bean enchiladas

    Lazy, yes. But, really prepping your food on Sunday afternoon makes cooking vegetarian SO much easier.
