Eating Together When You Don’t Eat the Same Thing

As a vegetarian married to a meat-eating husband, I get asked the same question a lot

“How in the world do you guys make dinner?”

I think most people totally over think it. They think of dinners like meatloaf or pork chops and wonder what in the world we do. So I thought I would write a little about how an herbivore and a carnivore dine together in peace. Make sure you read about how we make dinnertime less stressful. You should also take a listen to our podcast about how we survive and enjoy family dinner.

(Also, for those wondering, Mac is allowed to make her own choices in this area because we don’t make food a fight. She is offered some of everything and decides for herself what she wants to eat. But right now she is a picky eater, so we are just happy when she eats anything. Read about how we are dealing with picky eating.)

As a vegetarian married to a carnivore, I frequently get asked how we eat together. Here are the really easy ways we are able to eat dinner together every night. quirkyandthenerd.com
