Vegetarians, click here.

My favorite VEGETARIAN FAST FOOD is a bean burger. I put a little bit of oil with drained canned beans and onions and fry them just a little bit. Then I mashed them and make a burger,then I put the burger in a pan an let it cook for a couple of minutes each side. It takes less than 15 minutes... then the usual, bread, mustard or whatever you like in burger

My husband travels and has the same problem sometimes. If you want more restaurant options, ethnic restaurants are almost always a good choice, especially Indian, Thai, Chinese, Japanese. They almost always have veg dishes. A lot of chain restaurants will sub a veggie burger or portabello mushroom for their meat burgers. I know Red Robin, Denny's, Ruby Tuesday, and several others in our area do this, and we're not exactly in a veg friendly area. Sometimes you have to ask because it isn't always listed on the menu. Lots of places will simply leave the meat out of a dish too, all you have to do is ask. I do this a lot with pasta dishes, salads, and other things that have bacon or chicken on them. Some simple foods don't require heating or cooling - single serving packets of nut butters on bread, bagel, crackers, fruit slices, etc.; raw fruit; dried fruit; trail mix; cereal; nutrition bars. You can buy lunch at a local grocery store or health food with a deli instead of a restaurant. I get things like guacamole or salsa and chips, hummus and crackers or veggies, cheese and bread, salads from the deli, or yogurt and cereal. Some of the grocery stores and health food stores even have microwaves if I want to heat up a frozen entree.

One thing I really like to do is to get some nice tofu at the super market, and then just slice it up into cubes. Add some nice finely cut ginger and green onions! A little soy sauce makes it perfect!
