10 Easy Meatless Dinners That Everyone Will Love

January is a time of new beginnings and resolutions. One thing about making New Year's resolutions is that it's hard to stick to them perfectly. So why not try a perfectly imperfect resolution? If you want to cut back on your meat consumption, simply resolve to add a few more meatless meals to your weekly menu.

These 10 recipes will get you started. Some are vegetarian. Some are vegan. Pick a few and resolve to take part in Meatless Monday or perhaps even Veganuary. Not only will you cut down on your meat consumption, but you'll also discover some tasty new recipes that you can add to your repertoire for the whole year.

Vegetarian Biscuits and Gravy

Rather than crumbled sausage, the gravy for these biscuits contains rich mushrooms seasoned with crushed red pepper flakes, fennel, and fresh thyme. It goes over quick and easy cream biscuits for a comforting meal.

Stacked Enchiladas with Corn and Black Beans

Think of these as deconstructed enchiladas. Instead of the time-consuming task of filling and rolling each corn tortilla, dip the tortillas in enchilada sauce and create stacks with a filling of onion, corn, and black beans. Hot tip: save yourself time and use store-bought enchilada sauce.

Vegetarian Meatloaf

Plant-based meatless grounds have improved over the years, and now they're perfectly good substitutes for ground beef in a classic meatloaf.

Easy Vegetarian Chili

Kidney beans, bulgar wheat, and mushrooms create the hearty "meat" for this chili. Combine them with cooked mushrooms and veggies, spices, and brown sugar, and simmer. It's a meatless chili that's so incredibly flavorful and ready for toppings such as sliced avocado and red onion.

Mushroom Toast With Fried Egg

Quickly sauté sliced mushrooms and serve over toast with a runny-yolk egg. Brinner was never so easy or healthy.

Pressure Cooker Saag Tofu

Frozen spinach and canned tomatoes make up the bulk of this Indian-style vegan meal, with tofu standing in for the paneer. It's so fast in an Instant Pot.

Slow Cooker Chickpea Curry With Sweet Potatoes and Red Peppers

This crockpot dump virtually recipe cooks itself. Pile all ingredients—onions, dried chickpeas, sweet potatoes, bell peppers, canned tomatoes, coconut milk plus seasonings—in your slow cooker. Serve over top of chopped spinach with a side of optional cooked rice.

Vegan Mac and Cheese

The cashew-based sauce for this dairy-free mac and cheese comes together quickly in a blender. It's faster than making the traditional kind, and it's every bit as creamy.

Lentil Sloppy Joes

Affordable lentils cook fast on the stovetop in a classic sweet and tomatoey sloppy Joe sauce. A great pantry recipe.

Black Bean and Egg Bake

The egg bake is delicious straight out of the oven, scooped up with warmed tortillas, tostadas, or tortilla chips. To make it even better, add some cheese and greenery on top—my favorites are crumbled cotija and fresh chopped cilantro.
