Editorial Reviews

“Vegans, rejoice!. . . . Thanks to Atlas, vegan versions of traditional holiday foods can be incorporated for everyone to enjoy.” —Epicurious.com
 
“Happily, those of us who like to eat and party well need not suffer. . . . Atlas shows Thanksgiving can be bountiful indeed and not a turkey harmed. Beloved winter holiday hits go meatless, including vegan holiday cookies spiced with cinnamon and ginger, mock chopped liver (cashew, onion and mushroom pate) and 'vegg' nog, thick and rich with almond milk and cashew butter, liberally spiked with rum. The spirit of the season remains but anything animal is excised.” —Huffington Post
 
Recipes reprinted in the New York Times “Diner's Journal” and Washington Post.

From the Publisher

In her latest, well-known vegetarian and vegan cookbook author Atlas (Vegan Express) seeks to make holiday entertaining a festive, stress-free experience for hosts and guests alike. She offers festive, easy-to-make recipes along with practical tips on etiquette, healthy eating, and time-saving techniques. She also clearly identifies gluten-, soy-, and nut-free dishes. Some recipes are adapted from the previously published Vegetarian Celebrations, but most are new. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Hanukkah are best represented, but ideas for Easter, summer entertaining, and brunches are also included. For other occasions, try Alicia C. Simpson's Quick & Easy Vegan Celebrations.
