Vegetarian and no cheese AND easy to do - help!

[Binkybix]

Hello

We have 8 people coming to dinner and one is vegetarian, another is cheese phobic. Does anyone have any recipe ideas for a very casual dinner party? Ideally I'd prep the night before too! I'm not a great cook either!

Thanks for reading :)

Veggie chilli plus a load of sides

Vegetable curry?

Bean chilli?

Selection of vegetarian and meaty curries and side dishes.

I've never heard of cheese phobic, how does it manifest itself?

Rose Elliot has a lot of delicious recipes that might help.
Otherwise I would go for a selection of Sri Lankan curries, most of which have the same base and can either be vegetarian or not, as well as being really easy to cook.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone - will check them out. I should have added that there's also someone with severe nut allergy so that tends to rule out some curries.

Spanish omelette? Could serve with other tapas dishes so that people could choose what they want?

How about mushroom wellington?

It looks fabulous, but it's easy to make.
