Welcome to the holiday vegan recipes for celebrations all throughout the year: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter! The recipes cover traditional plant-based dishes, ingenious meat-substituting main course entrees, and trendy vegan culinary creations. The holidays range from lesser-known days of observance or awareness, to high-profile festivals and feast days.
How does a vegan recipe get listed? It must meet the Progressive Graffiti home cooking criteria… not too many ingredients, nothing too weird, fairly affordable, and the easier the better! Should taste good, too. And… I think I’d like to prepare it myself, some day.
Since I save many more recipes than I’ll ever cook, “Vegan Holiday Recipes” is stored in several sections. Just follow the links. Any recipe I’ve tried, with success and pleasure, gets a✴!
This section outlines the major holidays and important awareness days. It also directs you to handy vegan tips and resources.

Mardi Gras or Fat-Tuesday – January 16, 2021 (Day before Ash Wednesday)
Mardi Gras is celebrated on the day before the Christian season of Lent begins. “Carnival” refers to the days of festivities leading up to Mardi Gras. There is no reason why people cannot revel in luscious holiday vegan recipes that are prepared for Mardi Gras! A plant-based menu is an epicurean delight, without the animal fat!
Mardi is the French word for Tuesday, and gras means “fat.” Traditionally, in the days leading up to Lent, merrymakers would binge on all the rich, fatty foods—meat, eggs, milk, lard and cheese—that remained in their homes, in anticipation of several weeks of eating only fish and different types of fasting.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day – January 18
A wonderful way to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is to invite some friends over for hearty cold-weather vegan comfort-food, and to talk about the fight for human rights and economic justice. After eating, plan a local grassroots action and paint protest posters.
[King] wasn’t vegan/vegetarian, but his wife, Coretta Scott King, was vegan for the last 10 years of her life. Dr. King’s son, Dexter King, has been a vegan and animal rights activist since the 1980s.
