    Vegetable soup with a piece of whole-grain toast
    Vegetable burger or falafel with (soy)cheese, mushrooms and tomato on whole-grain bread
    Pita bread filled with vegetables or peanut butter
    Chili with beans, textured vegetable protein and (soy)cheese.

Dinner

    Tofu stir-fry with brown rice
    Whole-grain pasta with tomato sauce plus vegetables (mushrooms, tomatoes, eggplant, peppers and onions)
    Tacos or burritos filled with beans, textured vegetable protein, tofu or tempe
    Pizza with or without cheese and topped with vegetables, tofu or meat substitute.

Snacks

    Dried fruits
    Trail mix
