Vegan Easter Menu (Recipes)
Vegan Easter Menu (Recipes) will cover your fabulous vegan Sunday fare. I am a total sucker for all things holiday. I decorate like crazy, celebrate like crazy, and eat like crazy. Everything is fucking crazy – and I love it.
I remember my mom making my Easter dresses when I was a kid. What a lost art! No one sews their kid’s clothes anymore, then again, most mothers now work FT, and many of us never got the “old trades” like sewing, knitting, quilting etc passed down to us. Kinda sad. It is my quest to get a sewing machine over the summer and start sewing again. I learned from my mother when I was little, and then again in my fashion class in HS. My grandma used to teach me to sew stuffed dolls and small quilts. I want to make G-dog cute lil’ Halloween costumes, dapper holiday attire, and some sweet fitted dresses for moi! … Shit!… that literally just reminded me of an Easter memory. The year was about 1990, and my mother held an egg hunt (she was a decorate-the-fuck-outta-every-holiday kinda gal, too) at our house for the neighbors. She made me dress up like a gigantic bunny and stand on my front lawn – like a window display. It was hot, I was mortified that the “love of my life” next-door-neighbor would see me and give me shit for life, and… damn! I wanted to hunt for some fucking eggs, too! It sucked being the oldest.
Anyway, back to Easter 2019. Chef up these Easter recipes, celebrate like crazy, don’t dress your kid up in an Easter bunny costume – especially in front of the neighbor boy, and remember your youth. Happy “Hippity Hop” Day! 😉 -FGG
PS- You know me, Led Zeppelin anything & everything! “Celebration Day” – hell yeah.

Vegan Easter Bunny Waffles!
Vegan Easter Bunny Waffles! were SO fun to make with my little dude this morning! It’s my spring break (woo-hoo!!!) and today G didn’t go to his nanny’s. We declared it a day of Easter fun! Easter bunny waffles, egg dying, and nail painting… was totally awesome! These waffles were super easy to make and crazy cute! They were almost too cute to eat! As you all know, I’m a sucker for any kind of holiday/event decor, so the food styling for this post was incredibly fun. I’ve also included the link and picture to last year’s Easter Bunny cake, and pics of my table’s decor (and my new and fabulous plants). I’m gonna keep this post short and sweet because the little man and I are headed to the Audubon Society for a suh-weet hike! Happy early Easter! Love, FGG
PS- Beware! Picture heavy post! 😉
- Waffle mix (I used Krusteaz)
- 1/4 C coconut milk
- 1 egg substitute (I used Follow Your Heart OR you can use apple sauce)
- Food coloring (colors of your choice)
- 3 jelly beans
- 6 chocolate chips
- Fruit leather cut into 6 thin strips
- 2 Tbl shredded coconut
- 2 chocolate circle (I used Choco-nono's -vegan)
- Follow the waffle directions to make 3 Belgian waffles - sub out egg for substitute and instead of 2/3 water - replace a 1/4 of it with coconut milk - mix all ingredients required for your box mix
- Using 3 bowls, divide the waffle mix evenly into each bowl and dye each bowl your preferred colors
- Cook waffles and design them like the picture! You will have a remaining colored waffle
- Done!
