I was vegetarian for six anna half years, and I practically lived on the following (my carnivorous friends also were mad for the stuff):
Amarantha's Mountain of Nachos
for cooking: a couple of onions a couple of eggplants, or one really big one a few zucchini half a dozen large yellow chillies as many hot chillies as you like a large bag of mushrooms one or two tomatoes
for layering: corn chips salsa sour cream grated cheese
Heat some oil in a large pot. Chop and add vegetable ingredients in the order listed above, stirring with each addition. The eggplant especially should be chopped fairly thinly (half a centimetre-quarter inch slices) and may need more oil added with it. Once the tomatoes have been added to the pot it's pretty much ready - a horrible-looking grey muck that smells and tastes great. Get a plate, add a layer of corn chips, a few big serving spoons of vegies, a layer of salsa, a layer of sour cream and lots of cheese. Eat with fork and fingers.
Warning: this dish is deceptively large. I've had friends use a bread and butter plate so as not to get too much and even then, when they'd finished layering, they were alarmed at the amount of food they'd ended
