New Years eve is coming up and that may leave you wondering…. what should i make to eat? The last meal of 2019 – and the decade – it should be special right?
Well, of course it doesn’t have to be…. my recommendation is always to just go for your favourite foods or meals to end the year. Why make something complicated and gourmet if you won’t like it?
But of course, many end the year with a 3 course dinner and i thought i would give you some tips on what to cook or prepare…. or what to bring to the party to impress your non vegan friends. Because whether vegan or not, the majority of people can all enjoy a vegan meal! So why not end the year with a vegan 3 course meal….?
So i have gathered some recipes and ideas from the internet which i thought i would share with you. If you want to check out the recipe, click on the name and it will take you to the recipe.
Starters/appetizers:
Bruschetta with a tomato and basil mix on top (or 3 other topping ideas, HERE)
Different canapes such as “crostini” with tomato topping, or an olive mix on top.
Spinach, sundried tomato and olive puff pastry
Dumplings or bao buns with smoky tofu
Yorkshire puddings – These look so amazing i am tempted to give them a try myself
Smashed potatoes with gucamole, or a pea and avocado dip… or why not make a ranch dressing.
