Happy Halloween Vegetarian-friendly Folk!

by Sally Andersen

In celebration of the pumpkin day that is upon us, I’ve dug around the great wide Internet to find the best vegan recipes for your jack-o-lantern leftovers. So after you pick out your perfect pumpkin to carve, sit down with a hot cup of pumpkin java and browse these tempting, guilt-free, seasonal recipes.

* At a blog that truly is as yummy as it sounds - Vegan Cupcakes are Taking Over the World - find the perfect blend of chocolate-y sweetness and pumpkin bliss in the Pumpkin Pie Brownie recipe.

* Jolinda Hackett, vegetarian writer for About.com, encourages you to enter the kitchen and look Beyond Pumpkin Pie. Three of her more unique recipes are her pumpkin martini, pumpkin.jpgpumpkin risotto, and pumpkin coconut soup.

* Allrecipes has a great holiday drink idea - Vegan Pumpkin Nog! Who wants to drink an egg anyways?

* Compassion Over Killing has a fun Pumpkin Stew that you can serve in the pumpkin!

* Amy, who writes PETA’s VegCooking blog, whipped up a Pumpkin Bread recipe (read carefully, and you’ll see she also links to a few more pumpkin recipes!).

* If sweets aren’t really your thing, try Taste’s Pumpkin, Chickpea, and Zucchini Burger. To make this recipe vegan, sub-in egg replacement and soy yogurt, or anything else that would work to bind the ingredients together. If you’re not concerned about neatness, leave it out all together.

* Pumpkin spice coffee. I am addicted. Here’s how to get it vegan at your fave places: Starbucks: For a hot drink, order a soy pumpkin spice latte no whip. For cold, frappacinos cannot be made vegan so you should order an iced soy pumpkin spice latte no whip. Dunkin’ Donuts: They don’t carry soy milk, unfortunately (at least around me none do). Ask for plain pumpkin coffee, no cream, no latte, no milk products. If your local workers are like mine, you will have to repeat this, and then still return it when they put milk in it. Brew your own: Many companies are making pumpkin blends that you can brew at home. Try Millstone, Gevalia, Baronet, Bean Central, Green Mountain, and Buck Co. Some of these also have small, local stores.

And, of course, roast those seeds!
