vegetarian at outback steakhouse!!

So I’ve been roped into going to Outback Steakhouse for a friend’s birthday. I’m a vegetarian and I try to eat vegan as much as possible. I’ll eat a little bit of dairy but would feel like absolute *kitten* if I ate an alfredo pasta (the only vegetarian entree menu I’ve found). I’m maintaining on 1600-2000 calories kcal per day so I’d like to not have a meal over 1000 calories. All of the salads seem sad. Right now I’m leaning towards just getting sides, a plain sweet potato, broccoli and green beans plus some appetizer bread for around 700 kcal. I’ll settle for it but it seems boring and I don’t want to look like some type of vegetable freak. Anyone have any ideas??

I think what you are suggesting is about all you can do. Yes, bit boring but it's one meal and your options are limited.
Do they have desserts - if you don't mind more calories, you could make the experience less boring by adding dessert?
Too bad if anyone sees you as a ' vegetable freak' - I would just do it without any fuss and if anyone says anything just say you are vegetarian.
Which you are, so no problem just saying so.1 -
Salad snd baked potato.
If you see an older man destroying a full rack of baby back BBQ ribs, that’s me, wave and say hello.2
