Thanks again... [:)]

I checked on Friday night, and the vegetarian guest that we have 'doesn't eat meat because she doesn't like the taste and texture of meat' (so my frozen quorn mince stayed in the freezer...).

Instead I did a vegetable filling for a seperate Cottage Pie: so onions and garlic, finely chopped (food processed) suede & carrot, diced aubergine and mushrooms, tinned tomatos, tomato puree, fresh thyme, flat leafed parsley and seasoning. All simmered together, then with the same topping as the meat based cottage pie (buttery, cheesey mashed potato, a generous sprinkling of finely chopped leaks and then more grated cheese on top) before being baked. Served with simple brocoli. Followed by homemade bread & butter pudding.

Seemed to go down fairly well [:D]

Very much helped by your lateral thinking and advice on cooking for vegetarians [8D]

Ethical reasons for ignoring the food chain and the fact we have incisors? What could they possibly be? [:P]

So eating free range meat is ok ? Not questioning you, but just need to know just in case you guys make back over here.
