Vegetarian Christmas Dinner

Options
I have 14 people to lunch on Christmas day and I am not worried about 13 of them - but the 14th is a vegetarian! my 10 yr old granddaughter. Now, she is lovely and would sit and eat a plate of vegetables without complaint - but I want her Christmas dinner to be special too!
I remember having a Nut Roast somewhere and it was gorgeous - very nutty, sagey and delicious - I would like to make similar for her - and spent the last couple of days searching recipes online. only none of them sound the least like what this person made (it was a bring a plate type of buffet and I don't know who made it).
The best way I can describe it is sort of like a nut meatloaf which tasted like sage and onion stuffing but even more savoury? anyone got ANY idea of a recipe like this?

the other thing is that I want to serve braised red cabbage - now I normally just braise it in veg stock - but had the most delish red cabbage in a local hotel ..........I could tell that there was apple in there, but there was a tartness there too? Lemon? I couldn't smell lemon - only the cabbage and apple. any ideas there?

I KNOW that someone will know! and be kind enough to give me some pointers (recipes) before Christmas eve in case I have to go buy an ingredient!
