Vegetarian Food Vegetarian Food Getting Started Easy Vegetarian Recipes Vegetarian Holidays From Jolinda Hackett, your Guide to Vegetarian Food Happy holidays, everyone! Celebrating Passover I went to my first vegetarian seder several years ago in college. We had vegetarian matzo ball soup and roasted beets amongst other vegetarian dishes. Instead of the traditional shank bone, the host had drawn a picture to represent the bone. I can't say it was the most traditional seder, because after the meal, we all sat around the piano and sang Beatles tunes. These days, many more people are hosting themed eco or social justice seders and incorporating readings and discussions relating to current social and environmental issues. If you'll be hosting one of these themed seders or you just want to be able to accommodate your vegetarian and vegan guests at your Passover table, here are some vegetarian Passover recipes that will do the trick.

Most people think of eating colored hard boiled eggs at Easter time, maybe with some ham for dinner. Not so for vegetarians and vegans! If you're planning on an Easter brunch as the main meal, you may want to try a vegetarian quiche or egg casserole. Or try a an eggless baked vegan quiche with tomatoes and soy cheese and a low-fat vegan coffee cake. For a fresh spring-themed Easter dinner, try a portobella and asparagus pasta dish with some artichoke mashed potatoes or a sauteed tofu and artichoke pasta. Round it all out with some fresh, light gingered carrot soup or a creamy asparagus and potato soup. For dessert? Carve up these gourmet raspberry mascarpone brownies. Or, plan your own Easter menu.
