DH doesn't like vego food! Help me!

[Ahurani]

You serious? Meat and 3 veg the whole way lol DP would hate me doing that lol

[ss_storm]

I've got a recipe for vegetarian spaghetti which is quite nice, let me know if you'd like me to dig it out for you
Pasta bake with lots of vegies...aaand I'm all out..lol. I think most of our dinners have some sort of meat in them

[Little Chicken]

spinach and ricotta lasagne is good and you can chuck extra veggies in the tomato sauce.

oooh heck, he wouldn't survive here...we have one meat free for every meat night.

Masaman curry based on potatoes and pumpkin
lasagne made with mashed sweet potato and bottled pasta sauce
vegie stirfrys with nuts (left out for the tinies) and rice
soup and bread
fried rice made with grated cauliflower (yes you read right - it's beautiful)

Ooh muminalice you just jogged my memory

what about cannelloni? There are heaps of nice recipes that don't involve meat. I've made spinach & ricotta cannelloni before and a couple of weeks ago we had pumpkin & ricotta which was really yummy! DD loved it too!

fried rice made with grated cauliflower (yes you read right - it's beautiful)

My DH hates vego food too (I only used to eat meat twice a week before we lived together so it was tricky to find some middle ground!) I find curries and other really flavoursome foods are the best way to disguise the lack of meat, now he happily eats whatever I shove in front of him.

Green curry with potatoes, baby corn, zucchini, red capsicum and eggplant (and tofu if you're partial to that?)
Spinach and ricotta triangles (google luke mangan's recipe, it's a little different but very yum!)
Baby spinach, pinenut, sultana and creamy pesto fettuccine
Chickpea and cauliflower soup
Pretty much any curry...you can sub meat for pumpkin and potato or pulses, for stodge and then any other vegies you like

Here you go Kate. This is a basic recipe. I got the idea from Rouge (cos she is a genius) and I just use whatever I've got on hand.

Ingredients
500 grams cauliflower. (I use about 1/2 head for 2 or a full head for all of us)
1 tablespoon olive oil.
2 cloves garlic, crushed
100 g chopped onion
3 rashers Bacon
1 tablespoon soy sauce

2 free range eggs (for egg roll)

Method:
1. Grate the cauliflower, including the core.
2. Break the eggs scramble, fry in pan and form into egg roll, cut into small pieces and set aside.
3. Heat the olive oil in a wok, add garlic, onion and Bacon. Fry until golden colour.
4. Add the cauliflower & soy sauce (add whatever greens you want also)
5. Stir Fry for about 5 - 8 minutes.
6. Add in egg

Except you would leave out the bacon for a meat free option

My DP eats all vegetarian at home because I don't cook meat in the house. So he only eats it when he is out or during the day if he buys lunch - he doesn't seem to miss it at all. Some of our faves are

- Home made veg pizzas
- bean burritos
- red lentil and tomato soup
- eggplant curry
- potato and chickpea curry
- Stir fry noodles or rice
- Moroccan vegetable tagine with cous cous
- Baked potatoes
- Cheesy pasta bake
- Canneloni
- Pasta with kidney bean sauce
- Pumpkin soup with cannelini beans
