I'm vegetarian (but will eat cheese and eggs, or even seafood- I don't want to be TOO serious about it!) and would love to hear any good soup, main dish or side dish recipes which contain no meat. I've been a very lackadaisical cook during my 45 years, but suddenly find myself interested in learning more. I have veg cookbooks, but I'd like to find things that please both the vegs and the carnovores. We're having thanksgiving here this year, and while my husband enjoys cooking a turkey (he has a great BBQ recipe I ought to post), I would like to make an alternative dish that everyone might like.

Hey Bess, Hi ya!! If you can follow any of my recipes for soups, (I'm bad, I just throw it in and never measure) but all of those are no meat. There is beef boullion but it's basically salt. I am almost a total vegan too!! I'll eat the meat, only if I cook it.... I never eat meat, out, only a chicken BBQ.. I don't 'consider that meat, I mean red meat!
Any of the, I think I did 3 soups, have no meat.... I do lasgna for me with just cheese... I do make it with meat for the rest of the house, but my side has just cheeses and sauce and noodles. At Easter I do a ham and a 3 way lasnga......... And each year, I have to make the cheese side bigger, because a couple other family members like it now too!
Would you like main meals or side dishes or both?

Either main or side dishes, Weez. Basically, I'm looking for meatless things I can make that the carnivores won't snub as "rabbit food". Maybe something the veggos can have as a main dish and the meat-eaters can try on the side. I had this rather nice recipe a long time ago for some kind of casserole with rice and cheese and vegetables and maybe eggs, too. Something like that?
