+ christmas leftovers: a vegan feast +

I am such a bad blogger. I had planned to share all my holiday cooking on here, but I was so caught up in everything else (not including making and wrapping presents) that I didn't share anything. Our main dish turned out so well that I'm not even ashamed to show it to you so late. We've been eating leftovers for three days, but it still tastes good. The only downside is that it is a little bit higher in sodium than our usual meals, only because I wanted my family to try vegan dishes and actually enjoy them. The truth is, our cooking and eating habits are so far from the norm that I did not want to risk making them turn away from healthy, cruelty-free foods for good. My entire family came over on Christmas day and I was prepared with all kinds of goodies to fill up their tummies. We had sushi rolls, whole wheat veggie pizza, raw carrot cake bites and orange flavored chocolate balls. I also wanted something more traditional, so I made mashed potatoes, mini no-meat balls made from pulses, steamed red cabbage and a yummy red wine gravy. Here's a teaser:
