25 vegan Easter recipes everyone will love
Share
The Easter long weekend is upon us and I’m sure many of you have family gatherings and big meals to prepare. We’re planning for a day at my brother- and sister-in-law’s house, and I’m happy to report this year’s meal is going to be meat-free! (I’d like to think I was a small influence in that decision, since I’m the lone vegan in the family.)
I’m so excited, not only because of the plant-based focus but also because Easter means the big family holiday that ushers in spring, with fresh produce and handmade goodies from the farmer’s market, colourful spring appetizers, lively spring salads and light, fruity desserts—and chocolate, of course. Although there’s snow falling in southern Ontario (in April!), I’ve been happily dreaming up springtime dishes to take on Saturday. Here are some of the wonderful vegan recipes I have in mind.
