Fast Easy Veggie Dinners

51 seriously easy vegetarian dinners - a huge collection of my simplest dinner recipes. If you can barely fry an egg or toast a slice of bread, this is the place for you!

When I was first learning to cook, I would have loved a collection of recipes like this - easy vegetarian dinners that are pretty much impossible to get wrong. You can feel like you've cooked something a little bit special... without actually needing to have any skill whatsoever.

I'm sure a lot of you can cook beautifully, but I'm also sure that some of you are a little more lacking in your cooking abilities (that's why you've come to a website with the word 'Easy' in the title!). So if your cooking ability only stretches as far as frying an egg or toasting a slice of bread, these seriously easy vegetarian dinner recipes are just what you need. And even if you're an excellent cook, I'm sure you still want a super easy dinner once in a while.

Can manage. Since newbie cooks probably don't have a kitchen stocked with dozens of weird appliances, I've also tried to make sure that if you don't have any fancy equipment, you'll still find plenty here to cook.

A few of these recipes need a blender or food processor, and there are a few slow cooker recipes too, but most of the recipes in this collection use only the very basics - pans, baking trays, that sort of stuff.

“Made this for dinner tonight when a friend came over. Even my four-year-old loved it! He is not always into raw veggies, but upon the first bite, exclaimed, “I like this! Yeah, I love it!” and had a second helping. We did leave the cilantro on the side for him. Will be making this again very soon.” – Lea

“I never thought of lentils and marinara together, or lentils and pasta, but the combination is delightful! I used my go-to marinara recipe and will absolutely be making this dish again.
