[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again.  Thanks for helping me brainstorm!!  Here's the current evolution in my thinking.  It will all be served family style and at the same time.

Two shared sourdough bread bowls--one with spinach-artichoke type dip and one with butternut squash hummus; served with cut up veggies

A new kind of soup (since there's now squash in the hummus)--maybe curried carrot or cauliflower?; Sourdough bread

Cannellini bean fritters--though I may need a better name for these; they are probably 4 inches in diameter and pan fried; they're more substantive than I think people are assuming

Roasted root vegetables

Dipping sauces (again, dill-horseradish and still thinking about the other)

Fennel-orange-arugula salad

Apple tartlets

I still haven't ruled out a lentil "meatloaf" or a savory tart.  I just really want to have sourdough bread and that seems absurd with a tart.  And I make lentil loaf for my kids all the time, so it just doesn't seem special enough for a dinner party.

I’m another lifelong vegetarian (and almost middle aged 😀), and this looks great to me. I agree that vegetarians are used to making meals out of several smaller dishes - sounds like the non-vegetarians posting aren’t used to that, though, and want a “main dish”.  If you want to go that route, I’d drop the fritters and do a quiche instead. [/quote]
