I am cooking dinner for my heavily pregnant friend soon. I am terrified of giving her food poisoning or something :D Are there any vegan foods that should be avoided for pregnant woman?

I tend to cook everything, and serve it hot, when I'm worried about poisoning someone. The only food scares I've heard of that are associated with vegan food tend to involve things like imperfectly cooled rice and contaminated salads.
