    Festive dishes to make all season long

    Parties, getting together with friends for events, time with family all call for plant based holiday recipes.

    I can safely say the food plays a pretty big part of our holiday events. I love to plan the menus, try new recipes to serve alongside the classics I cannot do without.

    Like many things, half the fun is the planning. For more tips and tricks to planning a seamless holiday gathering, see our event planning tips.

    Having been a vegetarian for most of my life, I never cared for the main course. I was all about the appetizers, snacks, sides, and desserts. Even now as a vegan, I can still make a great dinner with a plate full of sides. This recipe collection does have a few delicious options for entrees.

    ...and that is what I am sharing with you today - my many years of vegan holiday recipes.

    Sides, snacks, breakfast, appetizers, desserts, and drinks - most are also gluten free.
