Tips for Surviving the Holidays as a Vegan

The holidays can be hard for some vegans. Luckily, these handy survival tips can help make it your best vegan Christmas yet:

Host the celebration

Take the holiday into your own hands by hosting it at your house. It’s the best excuse to serve as many vegan dishes as you’d like! With this Mushroom Wellington, Vegan Sausage Rolls, and Chocolate Mint Brownies on the menu, no one will be missing the meat or dairy.

Or, bring a few dishes to dinner

If you’re unable to host, show up to Christmas dinner with two or three homemade vegan dishes instead to ensure you don’t go hungry and have something delicious to share with family and friends.

Be ready for questions

It doesn’t matter how long we’ve been vegan; one or two family members usually ask us all about it at the Christmas get-together! If the questions are silly or if you don’t know the answer, try to be empathetic and have some common answers queued in your mind just in case.

Be present and have fun

It’s the holidays, so try to soak up the Christmas spirit and have plenty of vegan goodies to share with everyone. Besides, no one can say no to a Vegan Shortbread Cookie or Peppermint Pattie!
