Christmas centre pieces

[Citygirlrurallife]

(NB in case anyone misses it, this is the vegan section!)

what are you all doing as your Christmas centre pieces this year? I’m officially doing the vegan one for 4 of us but we all know the carnivores will inevitably want some of it too. Previously I’ve made my own tofu “roast” (can’t remember exactly what but mixed up and rolled out tofu stuffed with a veggie mix and rolled up again), nut roasts etc but want to try something new. Not a fan of welllingtons just because I don’t want pastry on top of potatoes and Yorkshire puddings, and def want there to be protein in it.

currently toying with this stuffed butternut squash recipe (will replace vegan sausages with marinated tofu or tempeh) https://www.veganfoodandliving.com/vegan-recipes/vegan-butternut-squash-wellington/?fbclid=IwY2xjawG64t9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHUi-irj7wq3Ee7glZT7Il4VmFL3GkJW0mypcoPr-LhWv_NdqLUj5zs4Wuw_aem_Yz7aSzqkeWfBr_VkCdk6zA

but would love to see your ideas!

Making this for the vegans and veggies.

I’ve done the nut roast posted above and it’s a good’un!

If you want a great stuffed butternut recipe and don’t mind using vegan cheese, this is excellent and fairly simple https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/stuffedbutternuttsquash42990 Violife Greek cheese is good.

This year I’m doing Hasselback butternut https://www.ocado.com/webshop/recipe/Hasselback-Butternut-Squash-with-Chestnuts-Pecans-and-Green-Sauce/245406?selectedCategories=222247

All these look delish!🤤 I’m thinking of doing a Rose Elliot yuletide ring; it has three different coloured layers and my friend who recommended it reckons it’s not too much of a faff. It’s from RE’s Vegetarian Christmas.

Thanks everyone. Think I’ll still go for the stuffed butternut squash
