Vegetarian Holidays



From Jolinda Hackett, your Guide to Vegetarian Food
When my neighbor stopped by with fresh homemade cookies last week, I suddenly realized how quickly the holidays are approaching! Enjoy the holidays, while they last, and if you need an excuse to bake up a batch of cookies, I'm sure your neighbors will enjoy some homemade treats as much as I did!

Stress-free last minute cookies
Under pressure but need some homemade cookies? Try some of my super quick stress-free no-bake cookies or, grab some cake mix, and make some cake mix cookies. Go ahead, you can still tell people they're homemade.

  • A few of my personal favorite vegan cookies
    Making homemade cookies was a weekly ritual in our house and it was the first thing I ever cooked. No wonder then, that above cakes, pies, brownies or anything else, cookies are still my favorite sweet treat. What's better than homemade cookies fresh out of the oven? Vegan artisan chocolate that helps third-world economies and preserves rare plant strains? Well, maybe, but I digress.

    Here's a few of my favorite vegan cookie recipes to try:
    Oatmeal cranberry cookies With nearly two dozen four and five star reviews, this is one of my most popular vegan cookie recipes. And with good reason! Pictured above, left
    Double chocolate vegan cookies These should always be soft, sweet and chewy and served with a tall glass of soy milk or almond milk. Pictured above, right
    Peanut butter and jelly cookies A simple thumbprint cookie topped off with a bit of jelly, and free of refined sugar. A fun one for kids.
    Lemon poppyseed cookies A delicate cookie perfect for afternoon tea time, or, according to the reviews, a "roomful of yogis", or a college vegan potluck.
    Pumpkin cake mix cookies This is one of those recipes that seems to be completely homemade, even though it's made from cake mix.


    Vegan fruitcake!
    I know fruit cake always gets a bad reputation - but I LOVE the stuff and look forward to eating it every Christmas! Why not make your own vegan fruit cake to share with friends and neighbors this holiday season? This easy vegan fruitcake recipe is made with egg replacer and flavored with allspice.
