Corn cobs done on the barby are gorge *dribble*

And cheap burgers are mostly gristle anyway

Mmmmm, its a good point, I think I should probably allow for the meat eaters to have the non meat stuff as well.... or there'll be sudden conversions to veggy on the day (I have been to weddings, where when realising the meal is salmon, people have suddenly said 'oh actually I am vegetarian now')

No, don't misunderstand that... the meal for all was salmon, and some people not liking fish wanted to then try and blag a mushroom risotto.

that site has loads of ideas for you

50 friends???!!! Jingso.

Well done you for having a separate BBQ for queerveggiefolk. I've lost count of the number of times well meaning people have slapped a quorn burger on a corpse-fat covered BBQ and expect me to eat it. I always quietly slip away with a salad roll

Thank you everyone... thank you JOanne..

TartanVeggie.. A friend from way back was veggie... and I learned the rules back then! No meaty cross contamination!

(was also trained to check ingredients on everything, and to cross check anything listed as a alpha numeric code to check it was not once part of an animal!)

However, at bbq's she would just rock up with a pizza hut veggy pizza for one

Get minced quorn, mix with some chilli, diced peppers, diced onions, egg...make into burgers...yummy!

for ease, morrisons do meat free burgers and sausages. we usually have them for BBQs and veggie kebabs with peppers, red onion, courgette, mushroom etc.

The brand cauldron in most big supermarkets do veggie burgers - I love their mushroom burgers
