People have strange ideas as to what constitutes a suitable main course for a vegetarian. This is not an issue close to my heart. If I want a burger...I'll probably choose a Gardenburger. But anyway. I once heard of someone serving a vegetarian friend minted peas and carrots as an entrée. That was it. Minted peas and carrots. If someone served me mint-flavored peas and carrots, even as a side dish, I would like that person a little bit less. I might even hate them.
I went to a party in my early 20s where the host though a platter of macaroni salad, potato salad and coleslaw was suitable fare for any possible vegetarians. Actually, throw in some bread and that sounds pretty good right now.
I recently chose a vegetarian boxed lunch over turkey. For some reason turkey tastes like dead bird to me lately.My vegetarian lunch featured a slice of grilled zucchini and a slice of grilled yellow squash on a croissant with some sort of mayonaissey condiment. It was weirdly good, but still...
