| Hi all, | |
| I'm having a small New Years party with savory and sweet | |
| nibbles. One attendee mostly eats plant-based food. Does anyone | |
| one have any great and easy plant-based appetizers or sweets? | |
| So far I have hummus, veggie plate, fruit plate, bruschetta and | |
| fruit tartlets. Does anyone have any suggestions for | |

| That's a really nice selection already. I think they would be | |
| delighted. | |
| If you want to add to your options, the only other things that | |
| come to mind could be a cheese spread (linked), maybe canned | |
| dolmas, which are usually stuffed with rice and no meat, or a | |
| vegan pate. Sorry I don't have a recipe, but usually they are | |
| based on lentils and walnuts or mushrooms and walnuts. | |
| Have fun! | |

| Your suggestions made me smile because I had dolmas and a white | |
| bean pate and a mushroom pate at my wedding reception (which I | |
| made all the food for.) Love all 3 of them. | |
| And to nsw11 - your menu sounds wonderful! | |

| I don't have a specific recipe for you, but perhaps stuffed | |
| mushrooms would make a nice appetizer. | |
| When I make regular stuffed mushrooms, I sautee the stems, | |
| onions, garlic, herbs and mix them with bread crumbs. I believe | |
| you can find vegan bread crumbs, or use rice instead. Wild rice, | |
| multi-grain rice such as Royal Blend's mix. You can make them in | |
| advance then pop them in the oven to heat up. | |
| You can get the Royal Blend rice in many stores, but here's what | |
| it looks like. | |

| Haven't tried these, but did a little google search and they | |
| looked good. | |

| It sounds like you've got the savory stuff covered. For sweets, | |
| it's easy to veganize anything that isn't chocolate/ice cream | |
| based. Country crock plant butter is available most places and | |
| subs in well for butter. There are a couple brands of vegan | |
| cream cheese around, as well as fake eggs and fake cream (that's | |
| what we call them in our house with dairy allergies and | |
| vegan-aspirers.) If you wanted to make something with chocolate | |
| chips, my store usually has vegan chocolate chips. Other | |
| chocolate can be tricky. | |
| A couple suggestions from my dairy-allergic kid: label things | |
| clearly, so your friend knows what they can eat, and let them | |
| know you will have vegan options, so they don't feel like they | |
| need to eat ahead of time. | |
| It's kind of you to accommodate them! I am sure you're party | |
| will be great! | |
| One more idea: samosas! I don't know how hard they are to make | |
| from scratch, but you could buy them frozen or get them from a | |
| local indian place. For the locals, Pooja Grocers in Columbia | |
| Heights has great samosas for $1 each. | |

| I don't have a recipe to link to, but we discovered these really | |
| tasty grilled Mitake mushrooms at my reunion. I say grilled | |
| because that's what it looked like to me. They could have been | |
| saut�ed for all I know. But I just can't tell you how tasty they | |
| were. Mr looked them up and got some from Amazon. And a recipe. | |

| Agreeing with [member=229]Sahmtoo[/member] about labeling | |
| ingredients on everything. | |
| I always do that since I have a couple of significant food | |
| issues and won't eat anything not labeled. | |
| Also pointing out that there are olives, nuts and nut | |
| mixes/spiced nuts if you are looking for things like that. I | |
| have a great recipe for a spicy chex mix and will post it if | |
| anyone wishes. | |
| Have a great time! Your party sounds great! | |

| Many brands of puff pastry are vegan, and the filling options | |
| are nearly endless. | |
