I'm the only total vegetarian in our home. (well, I'm lacto-ovo vegetarian.....but just barely since I hardly eat eggs/dairy but I can't claim being a strict vegetarian)

Anyway, when it is cooked in our house, it is meatless. My dh and children will order meat when we eat out, which is only when we travel or for a special occasion like a birthday.

Seitan is a excellent "meat" like substitute. It is actually wheat gluten. My dh loves Seitan as a fajita. We also use Seitan in chili, soups etc.......there are also many recipes out there for using Seitan.

Tofu is another one but it does not compare to being "meat-like" the way Seitan does.
