I made mine as tiny little sausage pizzas but you could put whatever you wanted in them. Just cook ingredients, spoon them in, use water to seal the wrapper in a triangle and bake at 350 for 10 minutes, and then freeze... could do spinach &amp; cheese, beans &amp; rice, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-a-friend-w-new-baby-a-meal-need-a-vegetarian-idea#post-750410 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 11:55:05 +0000 skipper2010 750410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about a loaf of banana bread or some homemade muffins?

Some dairy, but not a lot. I also make a sweet potato, black bean and quinoa chili, but I don't know if it's too warm for that where you are. You could also make up a bunch of veggie burgers or something that they can have in the freezer and pull out later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-a-friend-w-new-baby-a-meal-need-a-vegetarian-idea#post-749909 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 09:06:31 +0000 nana87 749909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>bean and roasted vegetable enchiladas maybe? or tofu as the filling. you could make it without any or much cheese, and that's a good thing that can be heated up or frozen easily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-a-friend-w-new-baby-a-meal-need-a-vegetarian-idea#post-749908 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 09:05:29 +0000 looch 749908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh wait, vegetarian/vegan.

I make a few edits to the recipe but I know people I've shared it with like it both ways (original and with my edits). <a href="http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/recipefinder/winter-vegetable-chili-2165" rel="nofollow">http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/recipefinder/winter-vegetable-chili-2165</a></p> <p>My edits: switch butternut squash to sweet potatoes. switch black beans to red kidney beans. leave out cilantro. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-a-friend-w-new-baby-a-meal-need-a-vegetarian-idea#post-749885 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 08:59:31 +0000 Boheme 749885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend had her baby over the weekend, and I'm signed up to take her a meal in the next two weeks. They are not strictly vegetarian or vegan, but I know that is more their preference for health reasons. I'm at a loss as to what to bring her. I'm looking for a meal that is vegetarian, preferably low or no dairy, and not pasta. Everyone else has signed up to bring her a pasta dish! Any ideas? I'm stumped! </p>
