Even if you love a good hamburger, these 13 vegan appetizer recipes are a tasty way to make your vegan guests feel welcome at your party.
Wait…Did I seriously just post that title?
Me? The person who fawns over cheesy cornbread, ice cream cakes, and even ice cream bread?
Well, yes.
But don’t mistake this post for a sudden change of heart. The Husband and I aren’t going to give up our love for cheese or meat anytime soon.
The reality is that, as our regular guest list grows, so does the list of special dietary needs. From life-threatening food allergies, to special diets, we know someone who fits just about each and every category.
And as a good hostess, I do my best to accommodate each of those needs in one way or another.
So, when a close family member confided in me that parties and family holidays are the MOST difficult times to maintain her vegan diet, I knew that I wanted to support her as much as possible.
Luckily for me, I already love to serve buffet-style parties with LOTS of hors d’oevres. That makes it easy to serve a wide variety of foods that will fit just about any diet.
Below you’ll find 13 amazing vegan appetizer recipes that are perfect for all your guests, whether they are vegan or not. And if you’re looking for more inspiration, there are actually cookbooks filled with vegan recipes for parties. Talk about awesome!
