Traveling for the holidays? I was honored to write a guest post for Rosey Rebecca on vegan travel strategies. Be sure to check it out for very simple tips to help make your travel a bit easier.
Going to four a holiday party? I have two perfect, easy holiday treats to take to the numerous gatherings I will be attending over the next few weeks. My thanks to The Global Vegan and Hungry Hungry Hippie, who I started reading during Vegan MoFo, for these super-quick, super-good treats!
The Cashew Cookie
The Global Vegan recently posted these Bite-Sized Pistachio Cookies and I knew I must try them! My modifications: I used cashews instead of pistachios and I sprinkled Sucanat on each cookie.
So yummy!
Carob-Covered Almonds
I posted about these previously but it’s worth repeating! You must try Hungry Hungry Hippie’s delicious Salty Cocoa Roasted Almonds.
My modifications: I tripled the recipe, used carob powder instead of cocoa, 3 pinches of Sucanat instead of Stevia, 1 and 1/2 t of salt and mixed in a bowl (instead of shake and bake).
I love these!
A vegan red wine, cozy in a stocking cap and scarf (not wool, crocheted by my Mom), and a jar of carob-covered almonds make a delightful, vegan hostess gift!
What are you taking to holiday parties?
