Hey everyone!

My mom's birthday is monday, so we're going to make a buffet style dinner on Sunday afternoon. I am the only vegan in the family. I need to make 3 dishes for this party (I'm also in charge of the dessert).

Does anybody have some great vegan ideas for a yummy dish everyone will enjoy other than salad? I scoured the recipe section and didn't see anything that would go over real well with them. I told my sister I would make vegan dishes because the rest of the food they are planning have meat in them, or cheese, lots and lots of cheese.

TY!

That Tofu looks AMAZING! (the second link). I think I'll make that there
I am also going to do a vegan lasagna. I am debating on using soy cheese or not in the lasagna. For dessert I am doing a berry cobbler. It has milk in it, and some butter. So I probably won't be eating it. It smells and tastes soooooo good though!

Why not make the cobbler with Earth Balance (vegan margarine) and soy milk? It'll taste just the same and turn out FINE. And you can eat it.

How about a macaroni salad using vegan mayo? Macaroni, black olives, onions maybe, peas, whatever sounds good... I think there's a recipe in the recipe sectio, if not, I have one in my blog... I promise, No one will taste the difference.

If not a mayo based salad, how about a pasta salad with oil-and-vinegar dressing... artichoke hearts, olives, sundried tomatoes...

Or scalloped potatoes. TONS of vegan recipes out there, just google, and no one can tell the diff. I promise.

Or Asian sesame noodles. Or spaghetti with marinara or pesto.

Or potato salad (again with a vegan mayo dressing) or stuffed mushrooms (recipes here or on my blog, they are ALWAYS crowd pleasers).

I am surprised you didn't find anything in the recipe section, what sort of thing were you liiking for? There's even vegan cake!
