Quiche is always a treat. Freezes well and so easy.

NP - I usually do quiche, fruit salad, a nice baguette, and cookies. Most vegetarians eat eggs; vegan is a different story.

Eating eggs varies. I eat eggs cooked in stuff but not plain eggs or quiche.

Israeli couscous with roasted vegetables (carrots/red onions), roasted chick peas, feta and a yogurt sauce.

These are friends I've eaten many meals with and I'm not bugging them in their current situation about the number of eggplant lovers in their home (I do remember having a pizza with fried eggplant with them but I don't think the kids had any). I might make myself an eggplant parm.

I think I'm going to do a vegetarian shepherd's pie (should that be called a sheep's pie?), broccoli cheddar soup and a loaf of bread.

Farmer's pie? You know, the one that "herds' the vegetables?

We love these: https://smittenkitchen.com/2020/09/tangy-braised-chickpeas/

I’m not even vegetarian, and we make them regularly.

Baked pasta with zucchini, onions, and eggplant. Skip the eggplant if they don't like it.

All food preferences vary. Right? But it’s perfectly reasonably to suggest quiche as a vegetarian meal option, since most vegetarians do eat eggs.

Vegetarian chili or vegetarian chili Mac
Zucchini lasagne

Chana masala, aloo gobi and naan - all freeze fine too!

Veggie lasagna, lentil soup or curry, barley soup, baked ziti (there’s one on NYT with ricotta that’s delicious and if you prepped it in two half pans could feed them twice with probably leftovers both times—add vegetarian sausage if desired), quiche freezes really well and is very adaptable to specific tastes.

agree. I do this with Trader Joe’s beefless beef crumbles.

If it’s post surgery watch the beans — gas isn’t fun after anesthesia, especially if it was abdominal.

I would do a red lentil soup (see Armenian lentil), some rice with fried scallions on top, and maybe a very mild potato and carrot curry (Ethiopian spices). Fresh fruit salad with citrus, apples, etc. A bunch of grapes. Oatmeal and dried cherry cookies. A box of tea. Basically light foods for recovery and munching along with the leftovers of what others bring.

As a vegetarian, I would just be so thankful at the kind gesture.
