If I had vegitarian or vegan friends I would not ever expect them to serve me meat in their home. I'd be totally fine with it.
I've never met a meat eater who doesn't eat chicken. It seems even the pickiest of the picky eats chicken. I have some kids who don't eat red meat of any kind, no pork, but will always eat the chicken.
it would be courteous for you to inform your guests of the menu so that they can make their own accomodations.
LOL I have heard this from a lot of people who don't eat beans regularly. We eat a lot of beans so we are used to them and it doesn't "affect" us.
Wendy,
I've noticed mushrooms are a thing for some people. It seems to be something people love or hate. I am going to use big slices of portabellas so people can easily pick around them if they want.
My absolute favorite website is http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/ I've yet to make a bad recipe from there.
This refried bean soup recipe is SO GOOD and quick.

The tortilla soup is another one I am considering, but we just had it a few nights ago!

Look around the website. Use the search engine and put in an ingredient you like and something will likely pop up.
I was a former vegetarian (for 10 years) who recently turned carnivore. I think your menu sounds filling and delicious and I wouldn't change a thing unless YOU felt comfortable doing so.
While I think your menu is fine (we eat meat, but not on a daily basis), I've never met a meat eater who doesn't eat chicken. It seems even the pickiest of the picky eats chicken. I have some kids who don't eat red meat of any kind, no pork, but will always eat the chicken.

Also if someone isn't used to a lot of fiber too many beans may give them loose stools so they may think something was wrong with the food. Just a little warning.
But would you feel obligated to serve vegan to them if you were the host?
