Hollow out some green peppers and stuff them with rice and whatever else you want (tomatoes, diced peppers, onions, cheese, garlic, mushrooms, etc). Top them with cheese and breadcrumbs and roast them in the oven.
Portobello Mushroom Burgers
Grill or pan fry some portobello mushroom caps and treat them just like a hamburger.
Potatoes Au Gratin
Peel and thinly slice potatoes. Layer them in a casserole dish. Boil some milk, butter and flour and pour over the potatoes. Top with cheese and herbs and bake.

Thanks, oojay! It's funny, I really enjoy cooking but I seem to have mental block on this one.... I've made eggplant parm, but neither daughter cared for that. I think the texture turned them off to it. I think the stuffed peppers would go over well. I've made them in the past (with ground beef, prior to my daughter's conversion) and we all enjoyed that. I can cook the ground beef seperately and add it to my older daughter's and mine (or just disregard the beef altogether). None of us care for mushrooms, so that won't fly. lol And I know we can't go wrong with any potato dish! Again, thanks for the help!
