Check out my yummy vegan Christmas dinner
It is Christmas Eve and I am very excited as my husband David has piled up 4 presents under the tree. I can’t wait to give him his. Plus we have gifts for Charlie the dog, Dylan the cat and Pea and Mingles the gorgeous rats. Tomorrow is a busy family day, so we will open our presents later tonight.
More important than gifts is the compassionate meaning of Christmas and I think it is the perfect time for us to consider those less fortunate, especially the millions of abused animals currently suffering in slaughter houses, factory farms, circuses, puppy farms and testing laboratories. Consider giving a tax deductible donation to your favorite charity. Even if it is just $5, it will help.
If you are surrounded by meat eaters on Christmas Day (as we will be) consider bringing a tasty vegan dish with you. Not only will it ensure you eat well, but spreading compassion through delicious food is one of the best ways to get people thinking and enjoying vegan food.
It can be challenging for animal lovers at Christmas. As much as we love to spend time with family, we can’t help but feel angered by the animal carcasses spread out on the table.I am lucky in that my husband is also vegan, so we can support each other.
I hope you all have a wonderful cruelty free Christmas!
