My 10 year old daughter has decided she wants to try vegetarian. I couldn't do it myself, don't like enough veges lol. But I want to help her as much as possible and happy for her to give it a go. Can anyone recommend some basic recipes particularly for dinner and lunch etc! Thanks in advance.

Just bumped the vegetarian thread for you. I make a pumpkin fetticine. 500g pumpkin cut into ½ inch dice 1 onion finely chopped 2 cloves garlic crushed 3Tbso Olive oil 4-6 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley pinch ground nutmeg 250 mls chicken or vegetable stock Optional 115g Ham Parma finely chopped (I use bacon) 250g of dried pasta eg fetticine 150mls standard cream salt and pepper freshly grated parmesan ( I use tasty cheese).
heat oil in pan and cook over a low heat for 3 mins the onion and garlic and bacon if using (not the parma ham though). The add ½ the parsley and fry 1 min. Add the pumpkin and cook 2-3 mins and sseason to taste with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add halk the stock and bring to boil, simmer for 10 mins, adding more stock if needed. Add Parma ham and cook for a further 2 mins. Lastly stir the cream through, heat well and pour over your cooked pasta.

you can also make vege rolls out of those rice paper rounds you buy from Chinese shops.They're really nice, my kids love them :)
Try and get a copy of meals without meat by alison holst, that is a really good book with easy recipes,and ingredients that are easy to find.
