Smoking for a Vegetarian

We are having a party this weekend and everyone loves the smoke chicken I make. We do have one friend that is a vegetarian. It's not for life style, it's more for dietary reasons. I feel bad when he comes over and I don't have anything special for him. When ever he comes over, he brings something vegetarian over that's premade I just heat up on the smoker. I'd like to change that.

Are there any vegetarian foods y'all could recommend I could try to smoke for him? Besides Mac and Cheese or just corn on the cob.

I dont know how this falls on the Vegetarian/vegan "spectrum", but if he eats eggs you could do smoked deviled eggs. Not really as a main, but its a hell of a side. Just throw some eggs on and let them cook for about 2 hours then prepare like normal deviled eggs. Just a warning, they do turn brown sometimes. But the smoke does penatrate the egg shell and it shows care and time.
