Cholent (made by Ashkenazi Jews) and hamim or adafinia (made by Sephardic Jews) is dish started on Friday just before sunset and cooked overnight for lunch on Saturday. Usually a mix of beans, eggs, potatoes, meat and vegetables, there are also vegetarian versions, with and without boosts of soy protein in some form.
You could take a regular (meat) version and just omit the meat, as many people do. http://toriavey.com/toris-kitchen/2016/04/cholent/
Or make one of these, designed as vegetarian from the start
