Is there a vegetarian in the house? This hearty lima bean and multiple vegetable soup is so filling, that once you try it, you'll keep the recipe handy so you can make it over and over again. Your meat-eaters won't even miss the meat! You can sure serve it as a side dish, as well, but I really think all it needs is some crusty bread!
