    Proper vegetarian curries tend to end up being vegan as well, as long as you substitute vegetable oil for ghee / butter.

            you should also be aware that most wines are non veggie, if she is a really strict vegan.

                  I worked at a petrol filling station with a vegan bloke. He used to tell me off for using the soap to wash my hands. We sold a variety of sweets and snacks; the only ones he could eat were spangles, which were soon discontinued. He wore leather shoes and said to me "I know what you're thinking" (he didn't) "......but I bought these before I became a vegan"

                    If you need to bother with odd meals, she's not worth the time or the effort.

                      Nut roast is a good 'un. No dairy or animal included. Cranks do a good recripe.

                      Don't forget to not cross contaminate utensils. Vegans won't eat anything you serv if you stick a meaty or dairy splashed spoon into the vegie soup to stir it. Take care of veggie stocks too. Some contain meat. Marmite is a good choice or Boullion.
