I've got a very very nice lentil loaf recipe, if anyone wants that.
It's featured at numerous Christmas/roast dinners for family/friends, &
I almost invariably end up wishing I'd made more because all the damn
meat eaters go 'ooh, that smells nice' & insist on gromphing half of
it.  Tears, imprecations, & stabbing them *really hard* with my fork all
have no effect.  It tastes a bit like stuffing, I guess, but more solid
(primary ingredients: lentils, mushrooms, onion, assorted flavourings, &
cheese & egg for the non-vegan version).

What she said.  I'm usually entirely happy to just have the
accompaniment stuff (as long as it's accepted that I get *more* of the
accompaniments cos I'm not eating the meat).  

Especially if the accompaniments involve, say, roast potatoes.  Some of
you may have witnessed me eating roast potatoes.  You have to look
*very quickly* to see it, though, otherwise they're all gone & all that
remains is a slightly fatter me.
