Vegetarian Holiday Appetizers and Side Dishes

Vegetarian Holiday Appetizers and Side Dishes

I love the holiday season because it is designed for spending time with family, giving thanks to God, and acting with compassion to those we love and those in need. But let’s face it, many of us also love the holiday season because of the food! I have been a vegetarian for most of the last 9 years and I find that people often just do not know what to make for me when I come over to share Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner with them. I typically bring my own dish or just pick around the meat in their dishes. But the truth is, there are many delicious vegetarian appetizers and side dishes that will satisfy both the meat-eaters and the vegetarians at your holiday table.

To help you out this holiday season I am sharing this list of vegetarian appetizers and side dishes. Check them all out and you will likely find something for your family’s gathering. There are several recipes here that I cannot wait to try. Feel free to pin this page so you can come back to this list anytime. Thanks and enjoy!
