Hi Anne; re: dilemma??????

i know i am getting here late on this and you

likely had many wonderful suggestions already, but... *lol*

First off i wanted to say how very kind it is of

you to offer to take meals to your injured friend.

i have done this in the past as well, and it is always

in need and very much appreciated.

 

As a vegetarian taking meals to an omnivore family,

i have found Italian dishes quite forgiving. i often take

stuffed shells, or spinach lasagne rolls, or a rich baked

ziti. i always supply a loaf of garlic bread, a tossed

salad, and a dessert; like a cake or some cookies, or a pie.

With a full meal like this, nobody ever missed the meat

or felt cheated or weirded out by unusual foods.

Even some simple macaroni and cheese with a vegetable

side dish, rolls, and dessert, etc. Can't go wrong with

simple and basic meatless meals.

 

i would also vote against the pizza hut certificates,

unless you give them for use on a night when nobody

could fix them a meal. They will likely use that sort of

thing enough during her recovery so as to get sick of

take-out. No substitute for a delicious, lovingly prepared

home-cooked meal.

I think I will try my stuffed shells recipe with a marinara sauce.

kids suggested my homemade breadsticks so they may help me with it

this weekend. I really like your idea--simple yet very appealing : ).

now to decide on dessert since that is my specialty : ). I'm thinking

something lemon or chocolate........thanks for the idea--I forget I

can easily make some old family favs really veg-friendly : ). take

care : )...........
