Menu Help!

[ElizabethN]

I am hosting a girl's night tomorrow and need a quick, easy menu. I had been planning on just going to the deli and getting a chicken, potato salad and some fruit when I remembered one of my friends is vegan. I would like to have enough sides for her to eat a decent meal but because I am 8-1/2 months pregnant and it is 1000 degrees outside, I would rather not have to cook something. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!!

You could get a veggie tray, hummus, fruit, chips and salsa.

If you happen to be extremely close to a Whole Foods, you could stick to your original plan (most locations I've been to sell vegan potato salad in the deli section). While you're there you could pick up a Sunshine veggie burger for your friend and a chicken for everyone else.

Ialways make avocado soup which is just 3 avocados in a food processor with almond or soy milk and a bunch of fresh dill. Really refreshing.

Dont know if your friend eats cheese but we often combine fresh figs, feta cheese and spinach in a salad with light dressing I make from citrus, olive oil and flavored vinegar.

My 3 year old granddaughter prefers banana soup( I think she just likes to stick them in the food processor) She adds coconut milk and curry powder. Also nice on a hot day.

have fun!
