vegan meatloaf recipes easy image

Answer
I have found two really good lentil recipes that I like a lot. One is for a vegetarian 'meatloaf' and the other is a broccoli lentil and rice casserole. There are many other recipes for lentil casseroles you can find on the internet. Indian dishes also often use lentils in curries, you can find these recipes by searching for Indian Daal recipes.
Lentils are also good for making veggie burgers or vegetarian sloppy joes.
Here is the link for the lentil loaf recipe:
http://www.food.com/recipe/really-good-vegetarian-meatloaf-really-33921
I usually add more tomato sauce than the recipe says. Sometimes I also sub the egg out with flaxseed (1TBS of ground flaxseed + 3 TBS of lukewarm water + mix until gooey= egg substitute for just about any recipe, including baking).
Also I like to spread ketchup over the top before I put it in the oven.
Here is the link for the casserole:

I am not vegan so I sometimes substitute parmesan or other cheese for the nutritional yeast and just use real butter. I've also made this recipe with asparagus instead of broccoli, or both together and it is very good. There are similar recipes on the internet but this is my favorite so far because it only takes one dish and is so easy to make, you don't have to precook anything, you just mix it all together and stick it in the oven.

Vegetarian meals made by (and for) a teen?
26242.
My mom is not supportive of my vegetarianism, so most of the time I'll have to cook my own meals. I need recipes for some simple meals with EVERYDAY INGREDIENTS.
I can handle breakfast on my own, but I'm desperate for lunch and dinner recipes. Lunch would have to be something pre-made and packable.
I'm an ovo-lacto vegetarian, so there's no need to substitute dairy or eggs.
Thank you so much!!
Answer
Hi, great choice to become a vegetarian. I am also a teen and have been a vegan for almost four years now. I am still the only one in the whole entire family of 100+ meat lovers, so as you can imagine I had to be extremely focused, determined and self motivated to pull it off. I remember my first days as a vegan asking around on-line and I never got any satisfactory answers, so I had to learn it the hard way. Through that experience I decided to help others and share my knowledge with you.
FYI WITH THE FOLLOWING RECIPIES YOU WILL GET ALL THE VITAMINS YOU NEED. HOWEVER YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE SOME VITAMINS AND PROTIEN POWDER ON THE SIDE! Don’t forget to regularly see the doctor.
