Vegetarian BBQ - what do you cook for them?

Vegetarians are a pain to cook for

Gripe from a meat eater

Okay, this isn't meant to be mean to vegetarians, but it has to be said that when they turn up to a BBQ it can be a right royal pain catering for them. Part of the problem is that the veggie stuff just falls though the grill.



Vegetarians and vegans, when they turn up for lunch it can be a right pain trying to figure out what to feed them, especially when they turn up to a BBQ. What to you give them, the salad bowl?

21-10-2007It's morally right to slaughter animals for food. There's naught wrong with slaughtering those which have been specially herded for this purpose.

The only thing you mentioned that I wouldn't touch would be the couscous. I'm sorry - but that stuff just tastes like sawdust to me.Snoopy
