Let's share a list of vegan recipes I would love to do this Christmas.
People usually love Christmas because it's one of the rare occasions to see everyone in the family. As an expat, I spent the last decade celebrating Christmas with friends, colleagues or sometimes with my partner only and I love it. To me, Christmas means sharing food, tasting lot of flavours and a nice wine of course but never the same meals every year. It's a great opportunity to be creative in the kitchen, trying new ingredients but also to veganize traditional Christmas meals.
At the end of the post, you will find a list of online stores which offer great vegan food - it would be wise to keep stuff in the freezer in case we get stuck at home due to the pandemic or just too lazy to cook anything.
