Cooking ideas this Easter?

[thefatelephant]

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could help. I am having some friends over for Easter so I thought it would be a good idea to cook for them and stay in for the first half of Easter Sunday.

The problem is 2 of them (a couple) are strict vegetarians so what do I do in this case?

Do I tell them to bring their own? or have water instead? (just kidding...)

The best I could think of is a vegetarian pie perhaps and boiled spinach salad and/or various salads. A salad bar could be cool and then everyone could help themselves.

Any ideas?

Thanks!!

you could shoot them problem solved and the meat eaters wont go hungry ..lol
a salad bar is a good idea..then every body can take when they want..a load of food always looks really good and its a more relaxed way of eating..
when i have a BBQ i make cheese and onion sausages for the vegies.
1 large egg
3 or 4 slices of bread (crummed)
1/4 of an medium onion finely chopped
and about a hadfull of grated strong cheese
bit of tabasco is nice too
mix it all up and shape..
fry in oil
taste even better cold with dips

You and your dips !!!!!!!! LOL
I agree, when you go to a dinner party, its nice and different to walk in to a table with all different type of food on it!!
You can cater for all then, and it looks so inviting!!!
Its a good way to lift there mood as soon as they see the delights on offer

i find its the best way to cater for everybodys taste and not single anybody out...
get a good supply of drinks and the meal is sorted
