Vegetarian food ideas, not fried?!
I have been cooking for myself for quite a while now, but to much of cooking is fried, so i need some ideas that i can boil, steam, bake, and maybe ferment (i don't like this idea!.!.!.!.)
i like it spicy, and i hate to wait (hence why i stir fry a lot!!!) and to clean (one pan or less is nice!!!) tofu is perfered, tempeh i have not tried to cook or eat!. i am also cheap, i can cook my lunch and dinner for a day for less then $4 and i don't want to go to far from that!.
i am well versed in cooking so there is nothing you can think of that i couldn't cook, but i might not cook any way becuase as stated, lazy and impatient (not going to let something simmer for 4 hours!!!!)
i am cooking for one, but need two servings (lunch and dinner!) and needs to reheat well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you have a non-stick skillet you can cook most things in water, soy sauce, teriyaki, etc!. You don't have to use oil to fry!.

You could combine lentils, rice, and steamed veggies and put some soy sauce on top!. It is really cheap, fast, tasty, and you can reheat it!Www@FoodAQ@Com
I wrote this as answers to some other questions, but it applies here too!
Morning Star Farms makes great stuff! It comes in a green box in the frozen food section! My favorite are the chicken nuggets, chicken tenders, and chicken patties! It is called "chicken", but everything is soy meat!. It just doesn't sound as appetizing if you say soy tenders! They taste amazing in the oven (or microwave), especially with ketchup!!! They also have stuff like sausage links (soy sausage links), some sort of sesame ginger rice patty, tomato basil burgers, buffalo wings (still soy), and a lot more! People who are not even vegetarian eat this stuff because it tastes great, contain so much less fat, and it is not expensive! These links show you what the boxes look like!

Remember! Everything is 100% vegetarian!
This stuff tastes better than any other brand!! Try the sausage links with ketchup or one box of something else to see if you like it! I have not met anyone who doesn't like at least 90% of their products! *They turn out better in the oven though!
