Can I have a few veggie meal ideas please for a party please.?!
I'm planning to throw a bit of a bash for the hopefully victorious rugby team my husband plays for in a couple of weeks time!. I know a few of the people who will be invited are vegetarians so I'd like to have a few interesting dishes for them too!. It'll either be a casual buffet style job or a bbq or both depending on the weather!. Any ideas would be much appreciated!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

SMOKED HAZELNUT BURGERS
These can be prepared well in advance!.
In fact, the longer the mixture is left to chill in the refrigerator, the easier it is to shape the burgers!.

2tbsp fresh herbs, finely chopped
dsp tahini
dash of shoyu
pinch of cayenne pepper
salt
extra olive oil for brushing on the barbecue
wholemeal buns, shredded iceberg lettuce, sliced tomatoes and mayonnaise to serve
1 Blend the nuts and chickpeas in a food processor!.
2 Fry the onion, carrot and garlic in the olive oil until soft, then remove from the heat!.
3Add all the remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly until the mixture binds together!. Chill!.

I'm sure many vegetarians will appreciate veggie burgers/veggie sausages for a BBQ!. It depends what type of vegetarian you are catering for!. Some veggieburgers contain egg & milk derivatives!.
For a buffet, you could have some hummus, rice, couscous, vegetable batons and crackers!. For vegetarians that eat dairy, you could offer cheese & tomato salad sandwiches, or be a little more adventurous with hummus and grated carrot sandwiches!. (Hummus and carrot complement each other very well)!.Roast vegetable skewers are really tasty!.
[edit] Personally I get a little bored of pasta!. It's nice but I love couscous with roast vegetables so much more!. =)
Have fun at the BBQ/party! =)Www@FoodAQ@Com
