Veg.
I'm suddenly a vegeterian, 2 days ago in the mail I got this magazine and a cd from PETA which is apart of goveg.com. Everytime I think about trying to eat meat, I keep getting the images from what I saw on the DVD stuck in my head.
Does anyone know any good vegeterian meals. I'm don't like peppers and onions and almost every premade meal such as veggie burgers have them in it.

Well theres always things like salads without peppers and onions or pastas or fish and chicken...vegeterians can eat meats that are chicken and fish and they will still be known as vegeterians.Trust me!

My husband is a vegetarian. He still eats eggs and milk, and some fish.
He also doesn't like a lot of vegetables like peppers. Here are some of the things that we tend to eat. This list includes animal-derived products like milk and eggs:
~PASTAS~
Macaroni & Cheese
Spaghetti with cheese sauce or other spaghetti sauce, or just plain with butter.
Lasagna made with spaghetti sauce and cheeses.
Boxed pasta mixes like angel-hair parmesan. (when buying boxed pasta mixes read the ingredient lists, some of them have chicken broth in them)
~RICE~
We have a cheap $14 rice cooker and have rice-based meals 2-3 times a week. Examples:
Cooked rice topped with cream of celery soup (made with 2/3's can of milk per can of soup), shredded cheese, chopped celery, and chow mien noodles.
Or rice topped with vegetarian chili and cheese (the chili has peppers and onions cooked in it, though but he still likes it.)
Or one we haven't tried yet, but almost did today, rice topped with a can of vegetarian re-fried beans, cheese, and sour cream.
~BEANS & MEXICAN~
As someone mentioned, there are a lot of good vegetarian Mexican dishes.
You can get vegetarian re-fried beans and do a ton of things with those.
The obvious one is to get flour tortillas and fill them with the beans and other things like cheese, sour cream (onions for people who like them) salsa or whatever, and make bean burritos.
You can also get plain nacho chips and top them with re-fried beans, cheese, and whatever else you like on nachos.
A fun one that hubby likes occasionally is to take some tater tots and top them with re-fried beans, cheese, and sour cream.
Besides re-fried beans there are also plenty of bean soup dishes out there. Sometimes we have just plain old "soup beans" as they are known in the south. It's just a soup made from a bag of pinto beans, water and salt. But it's good. :-)
There are also vegetarian baked beans, but those usually have onions in them.
~MISC~
Cheese sandwiches made how you like them, are always an option, as is grilled cheese.
Mashed potatoes. Instant potatoes. Baked potatoes. Fried potatoes.
Frozen french fries or tater tots. Frozen bean burritos. Frozen cheese pizzas. Frozen corn-dogs (Morningstar Farms vegetarian. I love these with mustard.) Frozen fish sticks (if you eat fish). Frozen fish patty sandwiches.
Tomato soup, vegetarian vegetable soup, lentil soup, minestrone, "Oriental" flavored Ramen Noodles.
Tuna salad sandwiches. Fried Egg sandwiches. Hard-boiled egg sandwiches (aka egg salad sandwiches). Peanut butter sandwiches.
Premade salad-in-a-bag with your favorite dressing.
Canned or frozen veggies like corn, peas, spinach, green beans, etc.
Cottage cheese, potato salad, macaroni salad.
Lots of different breads and cheeses.
Nuts of all kinds. Popcorn (not microwaved).
And of course, whatever kinds of raw fruits and veggies you like from the produce section.

I'm sure you could add plenty more to this list because this is just a quick list of things we eat. And he doesn't like a lot of things like mushrooms or cabbage, so I don't have things like that listed.
I noticed the Google Ads on this page have a few links listed for vegetarian meals. If they are still there, you could try checking those out, or doing your own search in Google:
Good luck.

You know why that dvd is stuck in your head?
It's a nice little thing we like to call propaganda. It's meant to brainwash you.
That's not to say that what they are saying are lies, by any means. They just overexaggerate everything, try to show the worst of it, and overall just want to convince you to think like they do. Try to protect yourself from being impressionable to propaganda in the future; it can get dangerous.
But that's not what you were asking! .. Lots of Mexican food seems to have vegetarian dishes. There are a million different types of pastas you can eat and salads can be good. Try googling "vegetarian meals" and see what comes up.
