HELP... NEED REALLY GOOD NON-MEAT RECIPE.

[KAMA]

my sil is coming for dinner and she doesn't eat meat. she does eat fish but i'm not in the mood. does anyone have a really tasty recipe for an entree &/or side that i can make? i'd really appreciate it. i had gotten some mid-east takeout with huumus, babaganoush and some lentil dish with caramelized onions the last time as side dishes and she loved it but it was expensive to buy ready made. if you know any of these recipes, they'd be greatly appreciated also. even veg lasagna.(don't forget recipe for sauce. thanks again for any help

ANYTHING WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Does she like pizza? Easy to make with no meat. Here is a great recipe for homemade pizza in a hurry.......

No Rise Pizza Dough

3 cups flour,

1 1/3 cup water,

2 tbsp oil,

2 packages (or 2 Tbsp) yeast,

1 tsp salt,

basil & oregano, sauce and toppings

DO NOT PREHEAT YOUR OVEN!!! Dissolve yeast with 1/3 cup of the warm water. Add 1 cup of the flour and mix (I use my Kitchenaid). Add oil, salt, 1 cup water, and a pinch of oregano and basil (your choice). Mix. Add 2 cups flour and mix. Knead dough for 2 minutes (I add flour if it's really sticky, you don't want it sticky.) Grease a cookie sheet with oil (or use a baking stone) and spread dough, add toppings.

Place in a COLD oven and turn on to 450 degrees. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until crust is golden.

Here are quite a few different vegetarian lasagnas. Even I love vegetarian lasagna!! Yummmmy

How about eggplant parm or a lazagna? You could also do a stir fry with the veggies you have with a little olive oil, soy sauce & pepper, served over rice. The following website has lots of recipes...do a search for vegetarian and see what comes up...

baked spagetti is grrrrrreat without the meat....lots of veggies in it too.......

Kama,

I have no recipes, cause I never measure anything! just dump stuff together! But Tortillla stacks are easy

tortillas, beans, cheese and keep stacking then bake.
sprinkle with more cheese and serve with guacamole, sour cream and hot sauce.

Like I said Never use recipes LOLOL....the kids love these things though.

Don't forget a really easy dish is pasta with pesto sauce. You can buy a small container of ready made sauce and it goes a long way.

Kama,

Soooooooo........what did you make and did you like it??? LOL!
