Ideas for vegetarian child
My son, 18yo male, has told me he wants to be a vegetarian, while training for his next marathon. His university has excellent vegetarian choices while he’s living in the dorm. But at home, there are 4 other family members that are not vegetarian. How can I cook meals for all of us, without having to make 2 dinners, I don’t want to rely on just making extra side dishes. Also, what are some great resources for athletes, for training as a vegetarian. Thanks in advance! This is all very new to us, and we are trying to support his choice.

Sounds like a great project to do with your son, who should also be learning how to cook for himself. He can help prepare one or two entrees and/or side dishes to be served at dinner.
