[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a vegetarian and I don’t love this menu. It feels very light and appetizer-y. There is a delicious lentil bolognese on Rainbow Plant Life that is very filling and feeds a crowd. I’d also consider a salad that has nuts in it (if no one’s allergic) as well some sweetness. If you wanted to do a soup, you could do a lentil soup topped with a creamy/cheesy broiled polenta. For dessert perhaps something with dairy and something with fruit.  [/quote]

So interesting.  OP here, and I love all the things you mention—made a lentil stroganoff just tonight, for instance.  But I always assume that the heavy bean and nut dishes are more challenging for the meat eaters.  I thought the other options (e.g. butternut squash soup or pasta) were more accessible to a wider range of palates.  I’d gladly make a lentil “meatloaf,” but I figured that was more of an acquired taste.

Also, it’s funny that you say it seems too light because it feels like my middle aged mom friends never eat anything, so I was trying to put together a bird-like menu, but maybe I went too far?[/quote]
