I've looked over all my best recipes and they all contain tomato. The host does not eat tomato.

Pulled pork/roast pork
White lasagna
Enchiladas verdes

Can you give more parameters? Is there a theme, is it a thanksgiving potluck, etc?

I've had it at dinner parties and cooked it for dinner parties and people lose their minds. Delicious.

Saffron chicken and rice.
I cook this WITHOUT tomatoes and peppers, the asparagus is just garnish.

Is it an allergy so all nightshades maybe off the table, or is it a preference?

Thanks all! the no tomato is a preference.

It's for about 10 people, small casual potluck, no particular theme! The only restriction is I don't have a lot of time to make it. Some of these suggestions look great!

Did she say "bring a dish with no tomato, I don't like it"? that's rude, it's not all about her.
