I am slightly upset with the rude answrs here. I was genuinely wanting to find out info so that my vegetarian friend would have something to eat that would not be against her beliefs. I know that she eats eggs so that means potato salad is ok but come on, potato salad isn't a meal. I have heard of some vegetarians eating fish and poultry but I am not sure where my friend stands on this and I respect her so I don't wnat to do anything to disrespect her. It's that simple!

Several of you missed a teaching opportunity here. Instead of talking down to me, maybe you could have actually tried just plain talking.

Many thanks to those of you have have responded to my question with respect and tring to teach me what a vegetarian is.

think of it like this...
meat=flesh or products made from animals that have flesh.
fish is flesh.

Sorry, that really isn't much help.
If you know you are catering to vegetarians and are conscious about it, that is very nice of you to consider and go out of your way to respect someone elses beliefs. The world could use a little more of that.
If you are careful it wouldn't be hard to make something to cater to both. Try something like a pasta primavera, but be conscious of what you put in it. This is something that you can consider as a meal for either a meat eater or vegetarian because you can cook the chicken and place it in a seperate bowl for those who wish to have chicken pasta primavera. Just think of things like that and make it easier on yourself. There is no reason it has to be made more difficult. That is what turns alot of people off about having to cook for a vegetarian... it's extra. But with a little thinking and no more work... it doesn't have to be.
Good luck and bless you.
