If you’re vegan, vegetarian, or just trying to fit more fruits and veggies into your diet, you need to snag a copy of Vegan for the Holidays!
My boyfriend’s parents, Zel and Reuben Allen, run a fantastic vegan blog (started before the word “blog” even existed!) called Vegetarians in Paradise. Zel has written two cookbooks: The Nut Gourmet and Vegan for the Holidays. I’m not veg or vegan, but I have tried many of these recipes and I love them! Gregg and I made the Tempeh Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms for Thanksgiving last year and OMG it was so good! I had to stop myself from eating them all before we made it to Zel’s house.
Here’s what Rory Freedman, author of Skinny Bitch, had to say, ” Zel’s imaginative recipes bring elegance and flavor to the festive table. Vegan for the Holidays, with its delicious creations all garnished to the max, makes Thanksgiving through New Year’s joyfully memorable. This is the go-to holiday cookbook not only for savvy vegans, but also for everyone with a desire to eat healthier.”
And just because these are “holiday” recipes, doesn’t mean you can’t make them year-round! They are great for dinners at home with the family or as bring-alongs for parties of any type!

Wow, I’ve been vegan over 20 years now, and I remember their blog from way back! I checked this out on Amazon, and there are so many delicious sounding recipes. I’m a nut for autumn, so the Thanksgiving Phyllo Pie and the Pomegranate-Apple Salad with Ginger and Mint both sound amazing!!
I’ve been vegan for quite some time and now my husband is vegan also! We are hosting the holidays at are new home this year and I need all the recipes in this book to show all the non veg’s how good food can be for vegans. They have no idea what we eat. Not a clue, and there is so much out there to eat. I NEED THIS BOOK!
The Tempeh Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms. Mushrooms are so good for your immune system.
I would so love you vegan cook book. I can’t eat a lot of food do to allergies. I get so tierd of trying to figure out what to eat anymore. It takes me for ever to read all the labels in the stores,Awh! Thank you for the chance to win! Johanna
Orange gingered glazed carrots sound almost too good to eat! Wow, this book looks fantastic! I love that there are so many unique and creative recipes. THAT is what I need! 🙂
Sweet Potato Puffs look great!
Oh man, I’m torn between the stuffed mushrooms and sweet potato puffs…but really, everything looks so tasty!! Thanks for the giveaway!
I totally want to try the carrot wreath. Not only does it sound yummy, but I love the 60’s kitch appeal of food shaped in a Jello mold! 🙂
The Tempeh Bacon Stuffed Mushroom
I like the Williamsburg Pumpkin pie, the Tempeh Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms, the Cranberry and Pear Compote, Roasted Orange and Purple Sweet Potatoes, and Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Carrots with Balsamic Glaze
The Thanksgiving Philo Pie sounds delicious and filling; I adore mushrooms! 🙂
The Stuffed Mushrooms look redonk!! 😀
At the holidays I have to feed non-vegans yummy food — without them knowing how healthy they are eating! This cookbook looks perfect, providing recipes that even the most carnivorous will love!
I’m a brand new vegan and I would LOVE this cookbook!
We serve stuffed mushrooms at the restaurant I work out, but they’re not vegan! I’d love to try these ones!
The Tempeh Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms look delicious!!
Most in my immediate family don’t eat meat but some do and great recipes that make them all happy, in my opinion, just encourage those who eat meat that not eating it is not “disgusting” and is actually quite good and fulfilling!!
The cranberry-pear relish looks wonderful! I also liked the 2-tone pate.
The stuffed mushrooms looks delicious!
I was a VIP-er even before I was vegan. I love their HUGE website! All the recipes look yummy, but the Thanksgiving Phyllo Pie and Curried Pumpkin-Peanut Soup both sound amazing!
Those St. Nick Wicked Walnut cookies look awesome. I made so many cookies at Christmas, I love trying out new cookies on my guests.
My vegetarian teen would LOVE for me to pull off a vegan Thanksgiving, and get the whole family eating healthy! I hope I win so I know how to do it. Ya think I can work in some green smoothies, too (my favorite)?
I’d love to try some new recipes. Chocolate Truffle Mousse with Cranberry Splash sounds delish.
I have never even heard of a Vegan Christmas cookbook until this one. It is about time! Thank you for putting up this contest My Beauty Bunny! I would probably most want to try the Cinnamon Peanut Butter Torte and wash it down with the Pumpkin Apple Nog! I love to bake and the Torte sounds like a perfect idea. I would probably find a way to make it a little more Christmas-y. Perhaps some Christmas shaped sprinkles? 🙂
Would love to try the Sicilian Chili. Looks yummy!
Not only does it sound yummy, but I love the 60’s kitch appeal Highly recommend your blog to everyone. Especially this post was quite detailed, and upto the mark. I just stopped by to tell you that it is pretty well written. Keep going.
Very well articulated indeed. Looking Forward to more brilliant stuff from you.
