We've been busy with the move and a family reunion in Colorado and all that. Which means our weekly meal plan has gone more to the wayside than I'd like to admit. Well, my brother and sister in law are in town for my cousin's wedding on Tuesday, and my Father in law and his wife were coming through town yesterday, as well as Jake's sister Brea and her husband. We wanted to have everyone over to see the house and join us for dinner. At first I was concerned- Sunday is one of our no meat days....
Then I decided that our eating plan needed to stay on track. After all- we eat good on vegetarian days- surely our guests could enjoy it too. But what could I make that would feed a large crowd and be enjoyed by all? I decided on a fajita/taco bar. Since vegetarian food is all about enjoying flavor- I made sure to have lots of flavorful toppings. I sauteed peppers, onions and mushrooms in a little olive oil and taco seasoning. I warmed refried beans in a mini-crock. I cooked fresh tortillas (the raw Costco ones I love). Then I made home made salsa and Cafe Rio dressing. We also had lettuce, cheese, brown rice and sour cream. For sides we had grapes and corn on the cob. I let everyone stack/build them how they like. DELISH! Lots of compliments. Everyone was full and happy.
So see- you can even feed a crowd vegetarian with no complaints.
