Meat eaters believe that vegetarians cannot have fun, they’re simply limited for choice when it comes to party food. Haha, they’re so ill educated, it makes me 😂 laugh. I love a good giggle 🤭 and one of the best tricks I play is to cater a party in such a way that the meat eaters are totally unaware of the fact that they’re not eating meat. Haha
So here’s my go to menu
Shopping
Charcuterie boards
I make a variety of boards and serve each one with skewers, toothpicks, crackers and bread so that people can put the snack together in any way they please.
Cheese board
_Mature cheddar
_Brie
_Camembert
_Fried Haloumi
_Parmigiano reggiano
_Emmethaler
_Blue cheese
_Cream cheese
_A few herbed and plain varieties of feta
_Figs
Salad
_Cherry tomatoes
_Mini cucumbers
_Mini bell peppers
_Japepenos
_A variety of pickles
_Olives
_Sprouts
_A variety of salad leaves
_Croutons
_Pumpkin and sunflower seeds
Cold “meats”
A variety of vegan cold meat sliced
Bread and crackers
A variety of fancy breads, crackers and rolls
Fruit and cake
A selection of diced and sliced fruit to add to your skewers
Cheese cake slices
Carrot cake slices
Fresh cream
Lots of wine, sodas and bottled water. Lots of crisps. No beer, you’d have to bring your own.
I live in South Africa and and no party is complete without a braai! So for the coals I’d do vegetarian boerewors, hot dogs, chipolatas with potatoes baked over the coals.
I promise that the meat eaters would be totally unaware of the fact that they’ve been cheated.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DREEMPORT
