Need lunch ideas for fishing trip

I'm taking a friend out fishing in a couple of days, and I'm bringing lunch. Buddy and his dad are muslim, so I need to make lunch halal. My buddy just texted me that his dad doesn't eat red meat of any kind either (and his dad is visiting from India). When I take people fishing, the meals I prep are an important part of the fun so I don't want to just dial it in, but most of this is outside my knowledge.

So, ideas for lunch that are:

  • vegetarian (which makes it halal automatically)
  • tasty and filling
  • easy for me to make
  • can be made the day before, and will travel for the day in a cooler
  • bonus if it's indian?
  • Easy to eat while travelling or in the boat.

There is an indian food store within driving distance, so I could make a trip in if there's sort of pre-made things that can be bought. I just don't really know where to start.

Help? please :).

new vegetarian subreddit

hello! we just created a new subreddit for vegetarians because we noticed there aren’t many spaces dedicated to vegetarians that are actually run by vegetarians. many existing communities are wonderful, but they’re often centered around vegan perspectives. we wanted to create a cozy community for us!

whether you want to share your latest meal, swap recipes, ask for advice, or just chat with other vegetarians, you’re welcome! the community is still brand new, so anyone who joins will be one of our first ever members

Chickpea coconut curry with red curry paste

My go-to when I need to meal prep something relatively quick & mindless that I'll look forward to during the week.

Onions, red & orange peppers, carrots, broccoli, peas, roasted corn, spinach, coconut milk, chickpeas, fire roasted diced tomatoes, and chickpeas. Added chili garlic oil and red curry paste. Served over rice 🍚

Easy straightforward meal plan book? (Like this book but vegan)

I just found this community and am loving it, and I was hoping you might be able to help with a very specific problem.

I found this book at the library (“Cook Once Ear All Week) and it is PERFECT for what I need… except completely meat-focused and therefore unusable.

Basically, every week she chooses a grain, a vegetable, and a protein and designs a whole meal plan around those (with some add-ons, of course!) It is EXACTLY what I want in terms of straightforward, simple, and streamlined. Unfortunately, EVERY single protein is meat :(

Does anything like this exist for vegans?? I want it to have a simple grocery list (not too many items) and reusable ingredients that can be saved for the next meal without a ton of work for each separate dish.

Thank you in advance!!

Veggie prep ideas/advice wanted!

Hello everyone!

I'm looking for some inspiration for some mealprepped vegetables to keep in the fridge to add into quick meals! I've been doing broccoli/cauliflower , zucchini, eggplant, but that's getting a bit old!

The catch is that I want my spouse, who's got quite a few dietary difficulties, to be able to enjoy them too. They're trying to eat more vegetables, and don't have a lot of time to cook during their lunch break so ideally I'm searching for something that's pretty neutral, keeps a few days, and can easily be thrown on top of potatoes/rice/pasta whatever.

The general parameters:

  • They don't like orange vegetables. Carrots, sweet potato, pumpkin, etc.
  • They're sensitive to garlic and onion (Infused olive oil is fine, I also have a low FODMAP garlic powder I can use) and chilli, and kale/cabbage/sprouts.
  • Most legumes are out. Green peas are fine, edamame is fine, small amounts of chickpeas and black beans are ok but not ideal.
  • It can have moderate amounts of fat, but anything too greasy will make them feel ill.
  • Lacto-ovo vegetarian

Vegetables they tolerate well:

  • Zucchini and other squash
  • Capsicums/Bell peppers
  • Celery
  • Tomatillos
  • Fennel
  • Corn
  • Eggplant
  • Asian greens (Gai lan, bok choy, choy sum, etc)
  • Tomatoes
  • Spinach and Silverbeet/Chard
  • All leafy herbs (Dill, cilantro, parsley, mint, the tops of green onions, etc)
  • Lettuce
  • Asparagus

Plenty of others too. Basically as long as it's not garlic/onion/chilli or particularly cabbagey.

They love acidic flavors like vinegar and lime juice, and we frequently make stir fry, but that isn't the most neutral in flavor.

I've been sauteing capsicums/bell peppers with lime and oregano and salt, roasting fennel and eggplant and zucchini with parmesan and lemon, roasting broccolini, even making a salsa they can tolerate, but I wanna branch out! Please share your best veggie meal prep ideas!

Thank you!
