Yes, it’s that time of the year again! When most of us play Christmas tunes, decorate everything and go crazy over buying gifts and preparing for the big Christmas feast.
I personally don’t celebrate Christmas that much now that I’m an adult as my family isn’t into buying gifts for each other as we aren’t big on consumerism. Maybe this year try doing something a little different, make something instead of buying gifts or buy them an experience! Enjoy a fantastic vegan feast with family and friends.
For those of you that do the big Christmas feast, I have compiled a list of great vegan recipes for you to bookmark and prepare for the special day. They are all vegan (of course), mostly gluten-free and refined sugar-free. Hope you enjoy them!
Also, thank you to the blogging community for contributing your fabulous recipes. I couldn’t have put this together without you.

These look amazing! We have our eye on those tater tots:) Thanks for including our Hot Chocolate in this amazing round up.
Thanks for being a part of it Sarah! 🙂
What a delicious festive round up! The only problem is that I just don’t know which to choose first 🙂
I feel really honoured to see my Seed Loaf Roast featured. Kind thanks x
Haha it’s a bit like that isn’t it? Hope you can make a decision!! Thanks so much for creating a beautiful recipe 🙂
Hi, great recipe roundup, however they seem to be mostly ideas for cooler weather. Most years I hope for a warm/hot Christmas Day and make lunch using some of the wonderful summer veggies and fruit currently at the market – asparagus, cherries and melon being a great starting point. I find this approach helps us to eat simple but delicious food.
Hi Jill, I totally see what you’re saying! Majority of the contributors to this post are US and Europe based so this is why it’s mainly the cooler climate recipes. I will have a wonderful summer trifle on the blog this week so keep an eye out for that one!!
What wonderful Vegan Christmas Recipes! Thanks so much for including my sweet potato salad 🙂
Hi Vanessa, thanks so much for sharing it with us! 🙂
Wow! This roundup looks delicious!! I love how it is all vegan and gluten free! Happy Holidays!
Thanks! Happy holidays to you too! 🙂
Thank you for these recipes. I’m newly gluten free due to Celiac’s disease and have been looking for some decent alternatives to everything I used to eat. Almost a full vegetarian now with occasional fish and eggs but looking to go vegan as I despise animal cruelty. Thank you for the recipes!
Hi Amie, you are so welcome! Enjoy them and good luck on your journey to veganism 🙂
Beautiful roundup! Thank you for the idea and for sharing one of my recipes. Wishing you happy holidays! *** Joana
Hi Joana, thank YOU! Happy holidays to you too! 🙂
I found your website too late for this Christmas but as a new vegan this is going to be GREAT for next year!! It’d be nice to surprise my family with a tasty feast (especially as they all thing vegan=rabbit food).
Thank you for SUCH an inspiring website xx
Hi Amanda, thanks so much for your sweet message 🙂 Glad to hear you have next year already planned out! Let us know how you go.
Well, I clearly missed the boat on enjoying all these goodies over Christmas :S I hope I’m allowed to make up for it throughout the year 😉
Beautiful round up! Thank you ♥
Haha of course! Or save it for this years Christmas 🙂
Just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your emails, it’s a part of my routine on a Sunday morning, so much so that my heart missed a beat when I read M&M signing off!
Well done on an always interesting informative email. I look forward to hearing from you next year!
Regards, Kelly – New Zealand 🙂
Thanks so much Kelly! That means a lot 🙂 We’re really glad to hear that you enjoy them.
See you in your inbox in the new year x Maša
Oh you are making me hungry!
I am planning on making a Stuffed Butternut Pumpkin with Sage, Chestnuts and Cranberries for Christmas Lunch. So excited! I also have my eye on your vegan tiramisu there, something I was addicted too before becoming vegan.
Thank you for the great list!
Oh that sounds delicious! The tiramisu would be the perfect addition, if I can say so myself 😉
hmmm yummy! I’m getting hungry just by looking at those photos! Thanks for sharing all these. I wish I’m a better cook 😛
Haha it will have that effect on you! Hope you give some of them a go. Practice will help 😉
