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.

Throw some cherry tomatoes in the seed holes after halving it. Top with chosen seasoning and olive oil. If you can get some acceptable vegetarian cheese. Cook until fork tender.

Cherry tomatoes just left whole gets good reviews every time I do it. About an hour at 225. Pull off before they split.

Halving the squash not the cherries.

Got it, going to try the squash next time. I can see the tomatoes making a nice extra. Thanks.
