That's a generous calorie allowance!

http://www.vegetariantimes.com/recipe/super-veggie-lentil-taco-meat/ I make this and have it in taco salad, with cheese, but you could make nachos, burritos ... anything with it.

http://cookieandkate.com/2013/west-african-peanut-soup/ This is so good. To give it less calories/more protein you can sub out some of the peanut butter with PB2 and serve it with Beyond Meat Chicken strips. I usually double the amount of greens called for.

http://www.simple-veganista.com/2012/11/the-ultimate-vegetable-lentil-loaf.html I've made this many times and love it to bits. I usually add more vegetables and serve with roasted broccoli or cauliflower.

http://www.food.com/recipe/easy-lentil-stew-191459 This is so easy to make. I use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and increase the veggies.

Taco soup - 1 can each of pinto beans, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, white beans, and navy beans. 1 can of tomato soup (those little 10-12 oz ones). 2 cans of corn. 1 can of stewed, chopped tomatoes. 1 onion (optional). 1-2 packets of taco seasoning (I preferred the spicy version). (can size is usually the 15-17 oz size or so. Doesn't have to be too accurate.

Chop and sauté onion in a little olive oil, put it in a bit pot. Dump in every single other ingredient (do NOT drain the cans - the liquid goes in too), mix together, and heat until the desired temp. That's it. Very big pot of soup, very tasty, good protein, and can adjust calorie size via portion size.
