First, ask her if there is anything that she doesn't care for. That way if she hates mushrooms you won't make anything with mushrooms. But check out this web site. Lots of recipes for a Healthy Pregnancy and you can pick what you feel comfortable making

I would not make anything with heavy garlic or onions. Any recipe that may give heartburn like red sauce, spicy.


On the otherhand, I knew one woman who ate nothing but spicy and red sauce, she had heartburn, but wanted to live it up anyway.
Greek Salad


Ingredients:





1/2 head romaine lettuce, washed and patted dry, cut into 2-inch pieces


3 c. fresh spinach, torn into 1-inch pieces


18 kalamata olives or Greek olives, pitted


1 large cucumber, chopped


2 large tomatoes, chopped


1 green bell pepper, chopped


1 c. red onion, chopped


1/2 lb. firm tofu, rinsed and patted dry, cut into 1-inch cubes


Marinade and dressing:





4 tbsp. olive oil


1 tsp. dried oregano


1 lemon, juiced


salt and black pepper to taste


Directions:





Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper. Place tofu cubes and marinade in a sealable plastic bag and marinate for 2 to 3 hours in the refrigerator.


Wash all fresh vegetables well since they will not be cooked. This is important for removing bacteria from the surface of raw vegetables to prevent illness.


In a large salad bowl, combine lettuce, spinach, olives, cucumber, tomato, bell pepper, and onion.


Add tofu and marinade to the bowl and toss.
