One vegetarian in the household - how do you manage meals?

[BeanAround]

One of my DC has decided to be vegetarian. The other DC is a veg-refusing fussy eater, who likes things like plain chicken breasts, sausages etc.

i’ve tried making a list of meals I think both will eat and have ended up with: beans on toast, egg on toast, pizza and sausage and chips (and the last one still requires two different kinds of sausages). So far so uninspiring.

Please hit me with your tips for managing a veggie diet alongside a meat-eating one without having to spend twice as long in the kitchen making different meals!

I would tell your child that they csn be vegetarian when they are responsible for cooking their own food

My DD doesn't like sauces so if I'm ha I g curry, pasta etc then she will plain rice or pasta with a side of veg and protein (normally some form of chicken)

One veggie here, but omnivores are happy with daal or curry once or twice a week, carbonara (add bacon/veggie bacon in at the end, sausage casserole (add meat/ veg sausages in at the end),meat/veggie burgers, .

We make and freeze bean Kievs which are fab and easy to defrost singly.

Pasta pesto is the emergency standby.

OP can’t really say this when the child has seen their older sibling pandered to (as they will perceive it) over their dietary needs.
