Does it have to be a main dish?  Carrot candy is period, and has
been well-received when I've brought it to events.  And it's
vegetarian (though not vegan, as it contains honey).  It's Spanish,
1599.  Grated carrots, honey, spices, and pinenuts.

(Incidently, does anyone have a copy of this recipe?  I know I've
posted it to the list, but can't find it in the Florilegium.  My copy
disappeared when my old computer died.)

Cheating is having someone else do the cooking for you.
