Slightly ambiguous title!

Basically, I've realised that I don't eat enough veg so I'm planning to ensure that my even meal has a day's worth of veg in it.

I usually either just roast veg or boil it and have it with meat and whilst I've got some good cookery books I'm after something fairly simple (obviously willing to put some effort in though).

So, does anyone have any relatively quick and easy veg-based meals to have for dinner? Ruling out stirfrys because I don't eat much rice and only sweet potatoes. I hear beetroot is a wonder-food so have some of that but not sure what to do with it.

Thanks!

Creamed spinach is fantastic.
It's healthy, and oh so terribly unhealthy at the same time!

Being healthy is quite a high priority but certainly something to try. :)

Soups are a very easy way to cram loads of vegetables into your diet.

Ah, didn't think of soup! The only problem I would prefer not to have any bread in my diet. Could always plonk some meat in the soup though, I guess that would become a stew though?
 
Great stuff, keep it coming. :)

I guess if you put enough veg in the soup it will be filling enough, I think we even have a soup recipe book somewhere.

I do normally roast veg but it can take quite a while so am after quicker recipes for weeknights, could always try to time it better though, I guess. :)
 
All sorts of win there.

Right, stew will be cooked on Sunday and should leave enough for Monday too.

Soup for Tues/Weds.

Stir fry for Thurs.

Maybe boiled/steamed veg on Fri.

Will pickle some beetroot in prep for a nice salad too.

Sounds good to me. :cool:
