For my vegetarian meal ideas for this week, we’re exploring all things comfort food! Here is everything I’m craving that’s totally meatless (and a lot of it can be made vegan too).
1. Oven Roasted Potatoes
Golden and irresistibly crispy on the outside with a soft, fluffy center, these oven-roasted potatoes are the ultimate comfort side dish or snack.

2. Birria Tacos
These vegetarian birria tacos are packed with bold, smoky flavors, tender king oyster mushroom-based filling, and served with a rich consommé for dipping. This is probably the of the #1 vegetarian meal ideas I recommend on a regular basis.
3. Mac and Cheese
Ultra-creamy, perfectly cheesy, and irresistibly indulgent, this extra cheesy mac and cheese is pure comfort in every bite.
4. Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese
Creamy tomato soup served alongside a perfectly crisp and cheesy sandwich—comfort food at its finest.
5. Cold Sesame Noodles
Cool, refreshing, and packed with nutty sesame flavor, these noodles are tossed with crisp cucumbers for the ultimate light and satisfying meal.
6. Oyster Mushroom Fried “Chicken”
Crispy, golden, and impossibly juicy, these fried oyster mushrooms are a vegetarian take on fried chicken that delivers on crunch and flavor.
