3 Fast Vegetarian Dinners for Busy Weeknights

Advertisement Feature

We’ve been testing some tasty new products from Goodlife Foods and creating quick, easy vegetarian dinners that are full of flavour and simple to prepare.

Vegetarian Posh Dogs

We used Goodlife French Bean and Spinach Sausages with Wensleydale to make these elevated “posh dogs.” The sausages bake in just 15 minutes, so dinner comes together quickly.

Serve them in buttery brioche rolls with crisp salad and a spoonful of tomato salsa for a satisfying weeknight meal.

Tuck the sausages into soft rolls and add fresh crunchy salad—simple, tasty and family-friendly.

Vegetarian Kiev with Sweet Potato Mash

Bake Goodlife Mushroom and Spinach Kievs and pair them with creamy sweet potato mash. The Kievs cook in about 22 minutes, which gives you time to mash the sweet potatoes. Add a simple watercress salad and a squeeze of lemon for a nutritious, wholesome vegetarian dinner.

Falafel with Quick Mint Raita and Tomato Salsa

For a relaxed midweek meal try Goodlife falafel with a simple mint raita and fresh tomato salsa. While the falafel cooks, dice cucumber and mix it with a tablespoon of Greek yogurt and a teaspoon of jarred mint sauce for a quick raita. Serve with microwave rice or toasted pitta if you like.

Overall, these products earn a big thumbs up. They’re convenient to keep in the freezer and are ideal for busy nights when you need a tasty meal fast.

The French Bean and Spinach sausages are flavourful with a chunky texture, and the Wensleydale adds a pleasant creamy note.

The Mushroom and Spinach Kiev has a satisfying crunch from whole seeds in the coating, and the garlicky filling stays creamy inside until you cut into it.

The falafel tastes very close to homemade, with a warm cumin and coriander flavour and a sturdy texture that holds up well during cooking.
