The Simple Way to Add Vegetarian Options to Your Catering Menu

As more Americans choose a plant-based diet, you want your catering business to be ready to meet modern trends. Culinary Specialties can help by providing delicious food that is simple to heat and serve in the prep areas provided by most event venues. Here are just a few of our vegetarian entrée options.

  • Roasted Root Vegetable Wellington – We’ve taken all the classiness of a beef Wellington and converted it into a vegetarian option by using root vegetables instead of meat.
  • Parmesan and Ricotta Manicotti Shells – We start with large manicotti shells, and then we stuff them with the perfect blend of ricotta, spinach, parmesan, and seasonings. It’s all breaded by hand with Italian breadcrumbs and makes a stunning vegetarian entrée for clients who love Italian food but want to keep it vegetarian.
  • Eggplant Rollatini – We start by marinating and roasting the eggplant slices. Then, we fill them with an incredible mix of yellow squash, onions, tomatoes, garlic, herbs, and seasonings. This entrée is a triple threat. Not only is it vegetarian, but it is also gluten free and lactose free, so it’s perfect for clients who have guests with common food allergies. In fact, soy is the only major allergen in this dish.
