Need some ideas

I've told my house mates I'll cook dinner for them tonight, one is a veggie and the other 2 of us will eat anything.
So I'm looking for some ideas for some decent veggie food to cook rather than the usual meat dish but with quorn substituted in.
Cheers for any help

Chinese stir fry!

Inexpensive and probably the quickest and easiest meal that comes to mind. You could also cook some chicken once finished with the veg, noodles etc.. and only add that to the meat eaters dishes.

Cheers for the ideas guys, stir frys a good shout I hadn't thought of that. I was also thinking about roasting up some Mediterranean style veg, throwing in a tin of toms and then tossing that through some fresh pasta. Maybe with some quorn.

Ratatouille on pasta, basically

nice. Break some chunks of feta on top and put back in the oven for 10 mins, don't bother with quorn

Pretty much! The non cooks in the house think it sounds impressive, little do they know it's about as simple as it gets

This sounds nice. I've never done it like this but think I might try it some time

Vegetarian fajitas are always good.
You can always have some chicken cooked separately as well in case the others prefer it with some meat.
