Well like I said starting small is really the best way. Try doing one vegetarian meal a week, which will give you the opportunity to try new recipes, so you can start learning new flavors, without being overwhelming trying to do it every night.
Italian or Chinese noodles would be a great place to start!
You can always do a pasta with veggies and marinara sauce. Even with just jarred sauce you can bulk it out a bunch by sauteing fresh onions, garlic, carrots, peppers, zucchinis, mushrooms in a pot, then add the sauce and simmer them for 10 minutes before adding the cooked pasta.
Chinese is also a good starting point. Many Chinese restaurants will have all the same sauces and veggie combos available with fried tofu instead of meat. Or at home you can buy bags of frozen stir fry vegetables. Stir fry with garlic and ginger and some chow mein noodles and finish with soy sauce for a super simple dish to make at home.
The beans/lentils are good for protein which is why they're so common if you're really going full vegetarian, but if you just want to try starting vegetarian cooking one night a week then don't worry about it, you'll get plenty of protein the rest of the week. If you want to some you can try a vegetarian bean chili for a familiar flavor profile (unless you're from Texas and find this to be blasphemy lol). Here's a recipe, this whole blog is all vegetarian recipes as well: https://cookieandkate.com/2015/vegetarian-chili-recipe/
If you want to you can try putting 1/2 cup of dried red lentils into the marinara and veggie sauce and simmering for 20 minutes. It will look a bit like a pseudo bolognese. Also if you want to start branching out and your grocery store doesn't have things you want to try, like bulk beans or spices or sauces, you can always order things off good ol' Amazon, such as https://www.amazon.com/Arrowhead-Mills-Organic-Lentils-Packaging/dp/B00CLATJMW/ref=sr_1_4_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1541553946&sr=8-4&keywords=red+lentils
