If you have a particular recipe in mind that you would really like to make, and this recipe includes meat, don't hesitate to make it. There will probably be other things that she can eat.

If however, you don't have anything in particular that you are dying to make, why not come up with something that she would be able to eat? It is a simple act of thoughtfulness, and that way she will have at least one more choice. There are a ton of things that you could bring that don't include meat.

It sucks to go to a potluck and, because of diet restrictions, only be able to eat like one or two things.

Why wouldn't you want everyone to be able to enjoy what you bring?

If you can't think of anything to make that would be vegetarian than maybe this isn't the right time to learn or try a new dish, but really, wouldn't you rather bring something everyone can enjoy?

You can do whatever you please and should make whatever you want too without shame, but if you are capable of being kind to your co-worker and considering her needs, why wouldn't you?
