6 Ways To Make Your Vegetarian Dinner Guest Feel At Home
1. Find out what type of vegetarian they are. This will help guide you to your choice of recipe. A vegan is the strictest vegetarian. They eat no animal products at all so eggs and dairy are out. A lacto vegetarian will not eat eggs but is fine with dairy products while an ovo-lacto vegetarian is fine with both of theses. 2. Find out what they like to eat. Just by making a call to your guest you can quickly find out what their favourite foods are and then it’s just a matter of hitting the cook books or surfing the net for some recipe ideas. 3. Serve dinner buffet style This will avoid your vegetarian guest feeling the stick out like a sore thumb when they keep passing on the plates with the meat dishes on until the vegetarian option comes to them. Labelling the dishes is a great idea too. The name of the dish with a small “V” in the corner of the label will make it obvious it is the vegetarian option. In these days of food sensitivity labelling those foods which are low fat or low salt is also a great help to your other guests. 5. Have lots of side dishes Not just salad and fruit. Casseroles, curries and dishes that have a variety of seasoning are best. Vegetarians are generally open to trying new dishes, tastes and textures so are quite possibly easier to please. 6. Don’t knock yourself out. Nobody is going to expect you to cook a separate meal just for them. Not even the most fastidious of vegetarians would go that far. Just follow the tips, do your best and have a happy family meal.
