Vegetarian Dinner Ideas Please?
I have a vegetarian friend coming over for dinner. She works in airports and doesn't get a lot of home cooked meals. I think she eats a lot of Subway. She's sick of bread & cheese.
What should I make? I'm not a vegetarian, but can make whatever. Looking for ideas.
I think I'm leaning toward the curry idea. I just realized that I had bought a jar or Coconut-Curry Gourmet Sauce last week. I had planned to put it over chicken but can use it with the tofu.
What veggies should I add....definintely onions & peas. Green pepper???

Vegetable curry with basmati rice. I made one for a vegan friend a while back and it was a real hit.
Source(s): I ad-lib with what veggies I use. generally carrots, potatoes, cauliflower, courgettes, onion, whatever. If you add a bit of desiccated coconut too, it's lovely, as are pieces of apple. - CheddarCheeseLv 71 decade ago

I went vegetarian for 2 weeks while my boyfriend was away for business and I cooked lots of veggie meals.

You can sub out extra veggies or extra firm tofu for chicken in most anything I made too.
Let me know if you try anything!
I reccommend Veggie Fajitas or curry!!!

Make Eggplant Parmesan. Get a rich tomato sauce and it should be real good. You can do a couscous or wild rice with it.
You can also get sauteed spinach with tomatoes over rice. Put lots of seasonings. Hope it helps.
