Hosting NYE dinner for 6-8. I eat veggie/vegan 90% of the time but with my parents staying there's been a shit ton of meat around and I'm bored and sick of it.
Not telling family it's vegan because they'll make a cats bum face but they happily eat my vegan food normally if it's not "labelled". Friends coming know and love vegan food.
How does this sound and if not good any suggestions? Trying to avoid one pot stew style food, trying to make it a show stopper proper dinner party style nice meal!
starter: stacked vegan lasagna - individual stacks of aubergine, tomato, vegan ricotta
Main: stuffed individual mini pumpkins/squash, with quinoa and Mediterranean flavours (peppers, sweet corn, basil) with tatin of thinly sliced roasted veg (aubergine, courgette, tomato) in the side. Will do green salad as well I guess
Is it boring?! Have found a fun squashed stuffing receipe of pomegranate, pine nuts and sunflower seeds with more cumin/Ginger flavours, but then need more middle eastern style starter and side dish....maybe toasted mustard seed green beans as side and a soup or falafel and houmous as starter?
Mum is insisting on doing pudding which will def not be vegan
