I'm looking for good vegetarian recipes (or websites with recipes) that are pretty quick and easy (and good for you). Also, if you have a recipe or idea that I could make for myself (fast and easy) when the rest of my family is having meat, that would be helpful.
As for the restaurant part, I live around Arlington Heights/Buffalo Grove/Wheeling, IL.
Thanks!

One website I use is http://www.allrecipes.com It has reviews by people and you can do an advanced search and check 'vegetarian' or 'vegan' to find appropriate recipes. You can also check main dish, snack, etc… to further narrow your options. I have found many good veggie dishes from there.
For the restaurant try this one. It is closed until Feb 13 but is all veg…

If you are ever in the western suburbs in Bloomingdale/Glendale Heights try "Vegetarian Fast Food" which has fabulous fast food Indian all veg. Corner of Army Trail Rd and Bloomingdale Rd.
Vegetarian Empanada:

If the rest of your family are meat eaters, you could make a meat-filled one for them as well. And, empanada can be kept for a few days, so if you prepare a big one you can eat a piece whenever the rest of the family has dinner.
The best recipe site is http://www.vegweb.com/
To find restaurants go to http://www.happycow.net/
Also try looking up the website VegDining.com. Here's the link for Illinois:

If ever you're around Chicago, I'd recommend the Chicago Diner and Lake Side Cafe.
Good luck!
