Should we just decline the invation to Christmas dinner because we can't afford 75.00 per person.?
One family member is a vegetarian. This family member throws a hissy fit if non vegetarian food is put on the same table as vegetarian food. Because of the Drama last year no one wants to cook for Christmas this year and the majority wants to go out to eat at a fancy restaurant. Me and my hubby are the only family with children...we have 3. At 75.00 a head that's 375.00 plus tip plus tax... not to mention the 2.5 hr drive to get there. I do not want to put Christmas dinner on a credit card, this year we were really proud not to have put anything on credit and I don't feel that 1 dinner is worth 375.00. I will not cook or have them at my home because of the Drama that happened last year because someone put deviled eggs on the vegetarian food table. And I'm talking clean food off the wall drama.
6 AnswersChristmas9 years agoI need a simple vegitarian reciepe for 1 person that I can serve as thier main course at Thanksgiving?
Only one person in our family is a vegitarian. Last time I cooked a tofurkey they ate 1 small piece. No one else would touch it nor the other vegitarian food that was brought. I couldn't even get the vegitarian to take the food home with them because they had to drive 3 hours home, so it was all thrown away. I hate to waste food, so I need a reciepe that is not too much but will satisfy a vegitarian, the way a turkey or ham would satisfy a non-vegitarian.
6 AnswersVegetarian & Vegan10 years agoShould I prepare Vegitarian Tofurkey at Thanksgiving ?
There is one family member who is vegitarian out of 78 that are invited to thanksgiving dinner. My Hubby seems to thing aside from the 2 turkeys, 2 hams and 1 Turduchen I'm preparing I should make some sort of Tufu thing for this 1 person. Seems like it would be more appropriate for me to ask this one person to bring a tufu dish. The last time I made a Tufurkey this person was the only one to eat any of it and I had to throw the rest away it was over 25.00 for a tiny little thing the size of a softball. I was told I'm being thoughtless and it would be rude to ask this person to bring thier own main dish.
