The holidays are hard for vegetarians. When turkey, ham, corned beef, and pork roast are highlights of the holiday dinner, what do vegetarians eat?
It can be especially difficult for new vegetarians, or for parents cooking for their veg-head children.
In fact, I wished someone who is newly vegetarian a “Happy Thanksgiving” recently, and his reply said it all:
"Happy No-Turkey Day!" he said. "Only sides for me!"
This was his first holiday as a vegetarian, so I understood that the prospect of abstaining from turkey at a meal that celebrates a bird as its centerpiece, was feeling pretty real.
It can be downright scary to face the holidays as a vegetarian....
