Our neighbors' sondied in his sleep last night. He was 39yo and had been ill all of his life, having been born with spina bifida. His death was unexpected as in no one thought it was imminent. He did far outlive his prognosis, which was initially one year, then 20 years tops. Sweet guy with a hard life....

Anyway, their daughter and her boyfriend just drove down (6 hrs) to be with the parents. Neighbors are all rallying to support the family. I'm taking dinner to them tomorrow night and they requested a cheese-based entree as dd is vegetarian.

Any ideas for me? I'm going to make a large green salad with lots of veggies and cheese/nuts on the side and want to figure out the entree. Thank you!

UPDATE
Thanks for your suggestions. If you have time to weigh in, tell me what you think of this recipe I just found? Does it sound good to you? I'm thinking of adding some mushrooms to it, or making it as is.

My sympathies to your neighbors.

I like stuffed shells. Just don't cook up any meat for the sauce (or take them some italian sausages that they can warm up separately).

I make my mother's homemade mac & cheese. It's the old fashioned Better Homes and Gardens recipe from eons ago. Lasagne is a great option. I'm so sorry about your neighbor's son. May his memory be for a blessing.

I'd like to help you out. Which way did you come in?

That and you run the risk of making it watery... or waterier depending on what you do with the spinach.

I am a lover of all things mushroom and cheese - but for this recipe I would leave the mushrooms out. The recipe looks great. Not sure if it needs the pesto if you don't have it.
