Vegan toddler birthday party

Hello. I've got 4 toddlers and their mums needing a birthday lunch - what do you think of this menu - we are not vegan and have a child who will eat anything so I'm struggling a bit.

  • mushroom 'sausage' rolls
  • cut up veg sticks, peppers, cucumber and hummus
  • guacamole and crisps
  • vegan bread rolls and margarine
  • red lentil soup?
  • cucumber crocodile with cherry tomatoes and olives stuck in on toothpicks
  • fruit on sticks/chopped up
  • cupcakes
  • birthday cake

I'm also in charge of entertaining the kids whilst their mums drink tea before lunch so it must be all prepped and ready to go. Whip off clingfilm/heat in pot and serve.

Our kid will eat the soup but its not party food. I can't think of anything else though. Any ideas?

Awww, that looks fab! Thank you for the pics! Hungry now! just baked a vegan chocolate cake for a dinner with friends later too!

That's kind of you.
So those things that look like sausage rolls, are they ssg rolls?
DS would have eaten jam sandwiches (I think), if you had them. Oreos & party rings. Nothing else. Isn't there a specific brand of crisps that are vegan?

I'd be delighted to tuck into peppers & olives to reduce the food waste :).

Just so you know OP, pizza swirls freeze excellently and make great lunchbox snacks, they defrost by the time lunchtime arrives if you pop them in frozen. Wink
