Told me* some things never change

asian food

you're welcome

Falafel / tabbouleh / hummus bowls

a nice vegan pad thai (rice noodles)

>>16441385
this, vegan stir fry
and some other asian dish with meat but no shrooms or popeye

lentil dal with a side of rice

burrito bowl with corn chips. pic related, has grilled vegetables for more flavor. you could get some spanish rice in the mix. get some of that soyrizo sausage that's everywhere now if you want a "meaty" addition, it tastes good.

>>16441364
Ice cubes with water sauce and a side of ice crush

Speak English spastic

Don't bother

tacos (corn tortillas = no gluten). get some fried potatoes in there, some beans, some guacamole, some salsa, some vegetables, meat substitutes if you like.

you can do it like a build-your-own taco situation if they're that picky

a nice potato soup?
https://elavegan.com/vegan-german-potato-soup/
this recipe uses a dairy-free milk/cream substitute but sometimes those have a weird flavor so up to you. a potato soup can be thick enough just by the starchiness of the potatoes especially if you're pureeing it

some king of bean stew

he's probably drunk again was my theory

you could make some kind of hearty bean soup, OP. it tastes better with bread but your mom can have rice cakes or something

https://12tomatoes.com/hearty-roasted-tomato-and-white-bean-stew/

learn how to make injera flatbread and maybe some of the non-meat ethiopian dishes that go with it

it looks like a lot of work but it's about as hard as a pancake and your mom can have fresh bread without gluten. it's a nice treat.

Haitian dirt cookies

I'd make something with eggplant like Egyptian moussaka with some home fries or something. Maybe some kind of root veggie soup or something. Or you could tell your family to go fuck themselves for being difficult shits.

Bulger has gluten senpai

Make steak and eggs. During dinner just fuck your sister in the back room

Beans. Lots of beans.

Mexican rice
>Dice and saute onion until it starts to brown
>Add 2 cups of pre rinsed Basmati
>Toss to coat rice in oil (may need to add more oil)
>Toast until rice starts to turn golden
>Add chopped garlic and jalapenos
>Fry until garlic is fragrant
>Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander
>Pour over a can of tomatoes that's been blended smooth
>Pour over vegetable stock (you want 4 cups of liquid, measure the tomatoes then make up the rest with vegetable stock)
>Stir through then simmer with lid on until liquid evaporates
>Remove from the heat and sit for 5 - 10 minutes
>Stir through lime juice, chopped coriander, corn kernels, black beans, and diced capsicum
Serve that however. In a burrito with hot sauce, avocado, lettuce, with fried eggs on top, eat it as is, have it as a side, whatever.

>Bulger has gluten senpai
Damn. Guess he could make fake couscous tabbouleh or something but it isn’t essential, falafels and everything else is a meal on its own

>>16442616
>couscous
I meant quinoa, but mostly nevermind

>my mom can’t have dairy or gluten (it’s in her head but I can’t fix it)
If it's not a legitimate health issue then just lie. "Oh don't worry mom this is almond milk/vegan cheese and I brought gluten-free [item]." Bring your shit in an unlabeled tupperware, and if it comes down to it then grab a cheap thing of almond milk, empty its contents and fill it with real milk.

Also zoomer vegans need to be punished rather than catered to. Make a god-tier meal for the normal people and bring her a fucking Wal-mart salad. If you feed in to her """veganism""" she's just going to expect that the entire world caters to her bullshit. Make her understand that it's her fucking problem.

lying to family members is very good and normal behavior. it builds trust and harmony.

>>16441596
Yeah, I was pretty blasted. Thanks for all the meal suggestions guys. I wanted to do something nice for the family and these are really going to help in the long run.

no excuse to be on 4chan if you aren't drunk honestly. especially on a board like /ck/ where you can pass out and come back to a whole three replies 10 hours later

>>16442849
daaaaaammmmmmmn bro, angry much? you givin me those incely vibes pal, if op wants to cook for his stupid family then he should cook what they want to eat not what he wants, else he can stay at home and cook whatever he wants to

You are in no position to be ridiculing your family for being retarded dirty hillbillies, bub.

>>16443268
Having a fictious disease for attention means you deserve it when people won't cater to you.

>>16441364
>I’m at a loss.
Give up. They don't deserve a nice meal if they're going to be picky assholes. It's not worth it OP. You'll never get the validation you desire.

>>16441364
I woiuld not cater to the vegan idiot child. They need to get used to their restrictions by learning how to do their diet on their own. Maybe it will become boring enough to quit that nonsense for them.
Just make something enjoyable for your parents. And, the child can skip the main meat.
I like to do a Mediterranean/Greek sort of themed dinner sometimes when I do a grill night. I'll do some greak or zaatar seasoned chicken. Breasts, kebobs or spatchcock, nice lemony yogurt marinade, lots of herbs. To the grill, I'll marinate in some balsamic and olive oil, thick slabs of grilled aggplant, grilled zucchini planks, red bell pepper, red onion, and thing in season, a mixed grilled veggie platter. For the starch, you can do roast baby potatoes, a rice pilaf, couscous, or nice salad. Buy some naan or thick pitas and finish them on the grill buttery and browned, or do it from scratch. Grate some cucumber into some tzatziki, or make some yogurt dressed diced cucumbers with dill.
Very similar dinner for me, also on the grill, is skirt steak, argentinean or other sausages, all those planks of veggies, portobellos, and a heated pourover of some chimmichurri. Garlic bread, whatever starch, could be rice.
As long as you have at least 2 veggies and the starch and bread, you don't have to do mom's dairy or disappoint the vegan.
