This sounds interesting but is it very peanutty? Dh doesn’t like
Peanut butter either
When I make it I actually use sunbutter because of an allergy but I don't find it too strong.

2. Black bean and sweet potato tacos or quesadillas
What's the low carb person going to eat? Salad and steamed broccoli?

12yo doesn’t eat any meat or fish
I cannot have soy so fake meats are out
I typically try to do 1-2 vegetarian meals for us all and then have something dd can eat alongside the side dishes of meals with meat.
For vegetarian friendly meals - what about adding subbing in
instead of rice, quinoa (or half quinoa/half rice)
instead of pasta, chickpea pasta
You get the idea... Just adding in more protein where possible. Rice/quinoa and pasta are go tos because you can add whatever you want on top.
Quinoa is surprisingly high carb.
The DH doesn't have to eat it. I mean to add a bit more protein for the vegetarian and for the carbeaters.

Sounds like her DH won't eat that. I don't have the answer but I'm in a similar situation with a picky DH. I just started cooking for me and the kids and letting DH eat what we do or eat cereal.

Cook them separately and heat the sauce. DH can eat veggies and chicken with sauce, DD can leave out the chicken.
rice, steamed broccoli and curry sauce is not enough protein for a growing vegetarian child.

Pasta sauce with meatballs on the side, add the spaghetti squash or zucchini for the no carb person. This is what I do in my home.
