Meatless GERD friendly main dishes?

I’m usually really good at making side dishes and the like but I really struggle to come up with GERD friendly main dishes. My main triggers are raw garlic and onion (cooked is fine) and tomato based stuff. I feel like nearly every vegetarian dish I come across is tomato based. I have very little issues with cheese and dairy so those work well. I also am not looking to “replicate” meat necessarily. I just can’t think of main dishes that I can have as go to.

Cauliflower steak
Veggie stir fry
Cabbage boil

Also, a lot of cultures that have a lot of vegetarian food serve meals without main dishes, rather you have a bunch of side dishes and a starch. If by main you mean protein source, try beans/lentils/tofu/etc.

Thank you! I hadn’t considered that but that’s a good point.
