If you haven’t had a black bean burger, you really haven’t lived! Beans are an inexpensive and filling staple in the meatless diet. Experiment with black beans, kidney beans, chickpeas and even black-eyed peas.

4. Mushrooms
Saute them. Grill them. Bake them. Mushrooms are rich in flavor and can be substituted in almost any meat recipe. Portobello mushrooms are commonly used for burgers.

5. Lentils
Lentil soup is delicious, but for something more filling, lentils are a great go-to replacement for ground beef. Lentils are inexpensive and they cook fast. The next time you have “Taco Night,” swap your favorite ground meat with lentils.
