Didn't mean to be mean.
Loads of good ideas for recipes on here (really helped me :)
Big-up for your relative and you for helping. -
Cool, will have a think and get back soon. No doubt others will have suggestions for you too. I’m sure your friend will appreciate your help like this.

No doubt they'll have access to lots of good spices and produce, so check out Middle Eastern recipes in general, as a lot of them are vegan by default. Pulses are important. And if even if they don't have access to wheat gluten, it's very possible to make seitan from normal flour, plenty of recipes around detailing how you knead and wash the starch off. Loads of protein in that.

Like Oliver already said, there’s protein in everything, so as long as she’s not on a calorie restricted diet, she will get the protein she needs.
I am a huge fan and supporter of http://www.nutritionfacts.org, and the good Dr. Greger has made an app called ‘the daily dozen’. It’s a pretty simple tool to keep track of what to eat in a day (optimally), and focuses both on macro nutrients (carbs, fat and protein) as well as micro and phytonutrients.
It really should be a checklist for everyone regardless of eating vegan, vegetarian or meat. After a while you know it by heart, and don’t need the app.For recipes, just look online, there are more recipes than what you could eat I a lifetime.
