Got a new girlfriend and she's a pescetarian.

I'm pretty much only used to cooking meat-based meals. What are some good ideas for vegetarian or fish based meals to impress her?

I know plenty of pescetarians and vegetarians who are pretty relaxed about their diets and their views on animal rights and shit.

Very few pleasant vegans though.

No one dislikes the taste of every meat except for the most potent tasting of meats on the planet. Fish is a palate smasher taste. Also, the risk of mercury poisoning is very real when consuming so much fish.

That is only a USA/Japan issue.
Fish caught in the glorious Adriatic sea is as healthy as it can be. No mercury here.
As for you OP, if she is as cool about meat as you state she is you are free to eat meat whenever you want and cook some veggies for her. There are bunch of recipes online. Grilled vegetables is the most common one, because honestly there isn't much you can do with vegetables and maintain the nutrients.
And as far as actual recipes are concerned, you might do prawns, or shrimps if you want to surprise her and excite her. Stir fry shrimp with rice or some veggies. Fish is just really straightforward.
If you have any more questions shoot, I'm also here.

Buying farmed fish is more ethical than buying wild ones. Wild fishing is significantly reducing the population of a lot of species, especially tuna.

U wot m8 ? If she is a normal person then you eat whatever you want. Just like I stated, I eat whatever I want and even cook meat for myself while the side dish is the same for both. And most restaurants who are worth something serve vegetarian food, so it's basically the same to me.
>>6934695
But it's more healthy. And wild fishing isn't reducing anything. It's people who fish above the quotas. For instance you're allowed to fish X amount of fish per month for yourself. People fish X times 10 that and there is nobody to control them.

My girlfriend is productive, gets straight 90's+ on tests in university, and maintains a full time job, but she had a traumatic experience when she was younger and has to take some hardcore sleeping pills to even get to sleep at night, see a psychiatrist, etc. Still love her, I don't mind taking care of her.

One day when you're a man, you'll understand how retarded you are saying shit like thus OP. Guaranteed this isn't the woman you'll marry, she's going to lie to you, do evil shit to you and make you feel badly at some point in the near future.

Vaginas aren't a reason to kiss someones arse, or even speak well of them when they're not around. I'm starting to think the OP is a shut-in style feminist dork that no one speaks to on campus and ends up having to socialize on /ck/ of all places because culinary school wouldn't let her in...so now she's studying arts.

This isn't your blog nigger. If you aren't the female in question i'd be astounded. If you're willing to take on someone with such obvious baggage you're even more pathetic than she is.

Food isn't supposed to be complicated, it's intended to nourish our bodies and enrich our lives. If you come across people who can complicate something as simple as food (something microscopic organisms manage not to fuck up) you leave them where they are to wallow in their own arrogance and self-pity.

This woman will destroy your life, you've been warned.

I still think you are the train wreck bitch we're speaking about though.

>traumatic experience when she was younger
True story. Some dumb cunt I went to high school with claimed to have PTSD because of some shit her parents did to her when she was younger. Everyone thought she got raped or something.


It turned out, she was a fat little piggy when she was younger and her parents would make her eat her vegetables. They would put some ketchup on them to try and get her to fucking eat healthy. Some kids threw a piece of brocoli covered in ketchup on her plate and she started screaming bloody murder like she was being stabbed.

I'm not even fucking kidding, you can't make this up. She claimed that her parents abused her as a child because they made her fucking eat vegetables.

>tl;dr
When a cunt said something traumatic happened in her past, she's full of shit.

I watched my next door neighbor get stabbed to death by her crazy husband in third grade and I turned out perfectly fine

make real fallafel like those. If they fall apart while frying, complete the dough with one egg and 2 spoons flour

sauce: tahini with lemon juice (copious) and parsley

if you can make pita bread, it's cool. Otherwise, buy some

then with shredded red cabbage and carrots and lebanese tabbouleh make sandwiches

she'll give you the old lickaroo

Why does /ck/ think they're experts on women ? There are functional adult people who have their own reason to be vegetarian, that doesn't mean they'll stuff their choice into your throat.

Food isn't complicated, even newborns know to latch onto thr teat. What is wrong with your woman that she has an aversion to survival food? The smell of meat makes my 5mo son salivate, literally cries for food when he smells it.

She is just a girl/woman. Not better or worse than any other I've had or will have. If we breakup we breakup, no hard feelings. I'm not scared of that, I just enjoy life and food.
I don't know why she doesn't like meat. It's not important to me. It's so trivial that I don't even think about it except in rare cases like this.
