I like to do this for Motze Tisha B'av.
And with the hardboiled egg right before zman, I don't want to serve eggs for supper as well. More ideas needed.

Well, fish and anything too cheesy is out- because of the thirst factor.

What about soup?

For the after fast I do soup, fish and mashed potatoes.

I used to believe that about fish but experience has taught me that it isn't true. It's actually helpful to have filling lean protein. Make a recipe with the right ingredients.

Refried beans with all the trimmings. We find it's lite but filling and we have it every year.

(Anon because everyone irl knows that this is what we do-and it's kind of unique 😜)

I have no idea what we have every year. No matter what I eat or drink I am super hungry and thirsty the next day, but I guess that's the point

It's really quite easy (about 15 min from start to table, depending on how long it takes to prep toppings), and works for a variety of 'diets' from picky eater to gluten or dairy free (because each person can add whatever they like).

Chop an onion and sauté till translucent. Drain and Mash (I use a hand blender) beans- reserve the liquid (I use cans of black beans, but other kinds work, too- you can cook your own beans, but it does take longer that way). Add beans and salt to onion and cook till heated through (you can add black pepper or even red pepper, too, to taste) use liquid, as needed to prevent burning or drying out.

Now comes the fun part. Serve with an assortment of 'breads' and toppings. We do : laffa, pita, tacos, corn tortillas (choices depending on everyone's mood- heat them slightly). Shredded cheese, lettuce (shredded), tomatoes (diced), avocado (diced or guacamole), salsa, sour cream. you can also do olives (slices), scallions, hot peppers, corn or anything else you can imagine.

Put everything out on the table and Everyone puts together there own 'sandwich' with whichever toppings they like. (And, yes, I have one DD who just eats laffa with cheese, but that's fine with me- at least she's eating the supper I made)

I read in the ArtScroll Tisha B'av book that you can only serve one cooked dish for the seudas hamafsekes before Tisha B'av, and one may not serve fish (Orach Chaim 552). Have others learned opinions which hold differently?

supper is not the same as seudas hamafsekes which is bread, eggs and ashes.

That's if you actually eat the bread, eggs, or ashes -- I can't stand hard-boiled eggs so I don't and it's only a minhag. I had never heard of this halacha before I read it so I was wondering if women who will not eat another seuda after supper are makpid to only eat one cooked dish then and no fish.

I would look at it not like supper became your seuda hamafsekes but rather, this is supper and I'm not eating a seuda hamafsekes. I imagine, from the way you said it, that you serve a seuda hamafsekes (to DH etc) but you don't eat it. If that's not the case then it might be something to discuss with your LOR.
