I totally agree that the idea of “not feeling full” after a veg meal is either mental, or due to carb content 🙂

Like I mentioned earlier, I would make some more protein-centered items… Eggplant, veggie stew, etc are all delicious but lack protein. Incorporate beans, eggs, broccoli, even sneakily-disguised tofu/tempeh in there (prepared really well, like in a Thai stir-fry, it can be delicious even to carnivores).

Meat eaters need a “centerpiece” to think of something as a meal.  I find that when I serve veggie dishes to meat eaters, they feel like they are eating nothing but sides–and hence, it’s not enough food (even when it is).  For that purpose, I think the lasagna or baked ziti make more of a “this is the main course” sort of statement, and would probably go over better.
