5 More days until Christmas! Truth be told, I have been a bit naughty and opened up one of my presents before Christmas. Here’s to hoping that I don’t get a lump of coal on Christmas day! For those of you who, like me, are still scrambling for recipe inspiration for your holiday gatherings, here’s one fantastic list of vegan dishes to consider. These are recipes from Finding Vegan contributors, including yours truly. If you’ve never heard of Finding Vegan before, it is a wonderful recipe gallery filled with, you guessed it, vegan recipes! Kathy, the founder of Finding Vegan put together a delicious round-up of vegan holiday dishes for you. You’ll find my Peppermint Bark Popcorn with Toasted Coconut, Butternut Squash, Hummus & Guacamole Dip, and so much more. Hope you enjoy this! Vegan Link Round-up! There are some amazing vegan recipes, books, features and more out there on the internet, but it can be challenging to track down great content sometimes! That is where FindingVegan.com comes in. FV features recipes and more from the best vegan-friendly bloggers on the web! And this year, we FV asked some of its contributors to share their best content in a MEGA-amazing vegan round-up! Check out all that is going on in the vegan community!..
