Ok, so my family is vegetarian and for my birthday party we decided to serve vegetarian dishes for all those invited, whether they are veggie or not.

I need your help - tell me if you find these appealing, even if you're not a veggie, look at these dishes... which should I serve?

  1. All look great except the Spinach Pasta w/Avacado Pesto -- too much green for me.  But I eat vegetarian all the time.  


  2. all look good it is your party meat does not need to be served they are there for you not the food

  3. The pics are nice, but I would do a Veggie Chili and cheese quesadillas- with all the trimmings, diced onions, cheddar and monterey jack cheese, sour cream, and chopped cilantro-



    1/2 cup texturized vegetable protein (TVP) - mornigstar farms is good

    1 cup water

    2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil

    1 onion, chopped

    6 cloves garlic, minced

    1 teaspoon salt

    1 teaspoon ground black pepper

    2 teaspoons chili powder

    2 teaspoons ground cumin

    2 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper

    1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

    1 tablespoon honey

    2 (12 ounce) cans kidney beans with liquid

    2 (12 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with juice

    1 green bell pepper, chopped

    2 carrots, finely chopped

    1 bunch green onions, chopped

    1 bunch cilantro, chopped

    Place the textured vegetable protein (TVP) in water, and soak 30 minutes. Press to drain.

    Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat, and saute TVP, onion, and garlic until onion is tender and TVP is evenly browned. Season with salt, pepper, 1/2 the chili powder, 1/2 the cumin, 1/2 the cayenne pepper, and cinnamon. Mix in honey, beans, tomatoes, green bell pepper, and carrots. Cook, stirring, occasionally, 45 minutes.

    Season the chili with remaining chili powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper, and continue cooking 15 minutes. To serve, divide into bowls, garnish with green onions and cilantro, and top with dollops of sour cream.
