White pizza, with white sauce rather than tomato (use spinach or
veggies)
Meatloaf with a sauce they would like.
Spaghetti with a sauce other than tomato (there are thousands of those)
Macaroni cheese
Beef (or pork or lamb) stew
Salads with some protein (as in meat or cheese or beans)
Chile made without tomatoes
Any sort of roast, sliced with accompanying vegetables
Platter of sandwich meats, celery and carrot sticks and bread/rolls
It's a nice thing you are doing and good luck in her treatment!
