Not everything in life is turkey or loin. Enjoy Christmas dinner with these vegetarian recipes.
Sweet and sour cauliflower
This is a very tasty dish, easy to prepare, and does not contain a gram of animal protein. We recommend preparing the recipe in advance, as this is one of the dishes that tastes better when the ingredients rest for a while.
Vegan carrot tacos
The filling for these tacos is very simple to make but has an incredible flavor. The secret is in the combination of tomato, ancho chili, and garlic. If you want to give a different texture to the filling, add some hibiscus flowers while cooking the carrot.
Vegan chorizo tostadas
This version of the traditional Mexican snack is perfect for those who have decided to reduce their meat consumption or eliminate it altogether. To give it a texture more similar to chorizo, make sure not to overmix the ingredients in the processor.
Vegan stuffed mushrooms
These stuffed mushrooms are a great option for snacking at the Christmas dinner. They are really easy to prepare. To save time and serve them right after cooking, have all the ingredients ready in advance.
Nopales tinga tostada
In addition to being a delicious recipe, it is very nutritious. Nopales make it a healthier option without losing flavor. Cook the nopales with baking soda to reduce their typical texture.
Jicama ceviche tostadas
If your Christmas is not filled with snow or low temperatures, maybe a fresher dish is a good option. For example, jicama ceviche tostadas (without fish or seafood) can be the star dish of your Christmas dinner.
Cauliflower al pastor tacos
Enjoy all the flavor of the famous al pastor tacos without having to eat meat. Before blending the achiote, dilute it in a little vinegar. This will make it easier for all the ingredients to incorporate.
Vegetable mixiote
An important step in this recipe is roasting the spices, as this intensifies their flavor. Place the ingredients in a comal or pan and roast them over low heat to avoid burning.
