While a boiled steak would certainly taste terrible, as a strictly salt, pepper, ripping hot cast iron, steak enjoyer, steak tastes just fine by itself. Well by itself with the Maillard reaction.

Oblige him and serve him rare, unseasoned and unbreaded steak. Show him how much of "steak’'s flavor is just herbs and spices (plants).

Imma be honest with you chief, you’re gonna have a hard time converting a non vegan into a vegan especially if he has a basic palate. What you need to do is make those dishes with meat to gradually ease him into it or don’t cook at all.
I love healthy food but I’m not vegan and I would also be upset if someone cooked for me like this all week long. I’d love the dishes but I’d want some meat in them by day 3.
I’m a hypocrite too because I’m very opposed to the conditions in the meat industry but have yet to find ethically raised poultry and cattle. I don’t think killing animals to eat is wrong but I do think that they deserve a place of honor in our society for giving their life to nourish and sustain us.

You’re feeding him the food his food eats. He wants his food.

Your palette needs to adjust to be able to taste healthy food again, in my experience.
If you are eating a lot of fried and processed food you don’t notice the subtle flavors of vegetables and other healthy food at first.
