[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok I'll play. I'm a vegetarian and the cook of the family, but DH cooks meat. Most recent gathering was for pretty picky eaters (nothing spicy or strong flavors).

-Grilled sliced steak
-Roasted farm stand tomato, eggplant, garlic, mixed with white beans with homemade pesto on the side
-quinoa with caramelized onions
-home made focaccia, some plain, some with roasted onions[/quote]

And for the record, I'm also the OP of the chicken salad thread, which is bringing me endless joy today. [/quote]

What were you planning to serve with the chicken salad?[/quote]

I never finalized a menu for it because I'm not making it, but when I do a simple meal like that it's usually some kind of hearty chopped salad, and a bean or a veggie patty (like a zucchini fritter, falafel style patty, or mini black bean burgers with a sauce that goes with it like a tzatziki or chipotle mayo - since I'm veg I try to work in beans into the salad or fritter). Whatever bakery bread looks good. Homemade cookies or fruit cobbler. Fresh iced tea or lemonade. [/quote]

NP. Soooo your husband asked you to make chicken salad but you’re a vegetarian? Burying the lede there.

What will you be serving the colleague guest?[/quote]

Bean patties. OP is obviously trolling.[/quote]

Falafel or black bean burgers are offensive, as a side dish to a meat main, when the host is veg? [/quote]

In OPs list what was the meat main? Can't see it. I see salad and bean/veggie patty.

OP was asking "what are you planning to serve with the chicken salad"?  Chicken salad is the meat main in that context.  [/quote]

I mean OP was asked. [/quote]

That's not how I read it at all. She gave a menu for a simple meal "like that". Not in addition to.[/quote]
