Veggie Christmas morning breakfasts
There’s no better way to start everyone’s day than with a decadent breakfast spread. Our panettone french toast is perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth. Another great sweet option is our mincemeat banana bread – it’s a brilliant bake that you can make ahead to avoid stress on the day, and it helps use up leftover mincemeat. For a savoury option, try our breakfast casserole with eggs, veggie sausages, peppers, red onions and cheese. It’s a great way to feed a crowd and keep them full until you’re ready for the main event.

Starters
Sit your guests down to a festive starter after the drinks and nibbles. Warm them up with a luxury soup like our aromatic spicy roasted parsnip soup. If you don’t want guests filling up before your showstopping main, then a light salad is a great starter, like our beetroot, pumpkin & carrot salad. Both these recipes showcase the best of seasonal winter vegetables, too. Or, for a stress-free, no-cook starter, these figs with goat’s cheese, pistachios & honey can be thrown together in just 10 minutes.

Adorn your holiday table with one of our stunning Christmas Day centrepieces. Our hasselback butternut squash is a colourful showstopper, spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg and topped with a citrus and herb gremolata. Whip up our veggie loaf by combining lentils, chestnut mushrooms, brown rice, and walnuts in just 10 minutes, leaving you more time to enjoy the festivities. Our mushroom bourguignon pithivier is a rich vegan offering, and by swapping the vegan puff pastry, stock and milk for their regular counterparts, you can transform it into a delectable vegetarian option, too.

Veggie side dishes
Say goodbye to uninspiring potatoes and bland sprouts. These side dishes are so outstanding they could easily steal the spotlight. Transform your roast carrots in our honeyed beetroot & carrot salad with feta & hazelnuts, enhanced with orange and lemon zest. Opt for a vegetarian twist on a classic with our halloumi pigs in blankets, encased in delicate charred courgette strips. And for a superior take on roast potatoes, try our garlic and rosemary hasselback roast potatoes.

Lastly, surprise your loved ones with our panettone cherry ice cream bombe, with cherry ice cream and a luscious warm chocolate sauce.
