Although festive table spreads are notorious for displays of meaty roasts and Christmas classics, a vegan table spread is just as tasty and, best of all, cruelty-free. Make sure you have plenty of plant-based deliciousness with these vegan Christmas recipes.
Vegan Cauliflower Wellington with Vegetable Jus
This vegan-friendly version of the Classic Wellington is the perfect hearty roast as a Christmas main dish sans meat. The cauliflower is lightly roasted and then wrapped with a mushroom duxelles, a lentil crepe and then covered with a vegan-friendly pastry. It’s also served with a meaty yet meat-free veggie jus.

Sides
Your vegan Cauliflower Wellington is going to need some tasty sides. We love both of these dishes, which each bring their own unique flavour. Enjoy the roasted notes of maple-glazed butternut and sweet potatoes topped with nuts – they are full of festive flavour. The green salad is packed with nutrients and garlicky flavour. If raw garlic makes you nervous, try roasting it before, this will balance out the flavour.
Maple Roasted Hasselback Sweet Potatoes and Butternut
