This #MeatlessMonday we’re jumping head first into Chanukah in celebration of the Festival of Lights! Break out your dreidel and gelt, roll up your sleeves, and get to cookin’.
While you’re busy in the kitchen, don’t forget to whip up our Homemade Applesauce + Vegan Sour Cream. Let’s face it, is there any other way to enjoy latkes?
The truth is, it doesn’t have to be Chanukah to enjoy this tasty recipe. Serve it as a side dish with dinner or eat them for breakfast with a Tofu Scramble. Yum!
Word to the wise: make sure you have a heavy duty box grater for this one.
