Vegetarian Christmas Dinner: 2 Delicious Ideas

Vegetarian Christmas dinner is healthy, delicious, and ethical. We have put together a few ideas for you.

1st delicious idea: Stuffed pumpkin as a vegetarian Christmas meal

Stuffed pumpkins are wonderfully suited to the season as a Christmas treat.

  • Pumpkin is very easy to fill.
  • To do this, cut your squash (e.g. butternut squash) in half.
  • Remove the pumpkin pulp, but don’t throw it away! You can add the pulp to the filling later.
  • Put the two pumpkin halves back together and wrap them with twine. Then fill in your filling.
  • The pumpkin bakes in the oven for about an hour.
  • A spinach-rice-chestnut mixture is suitable as a filling, for example.

2nd delicious idea: Mushroom and chestnut ragout as a vegetarian Christmas meal

Mushrooms and chestnuts go well together and also make a good Christmas dinner.

  • A sauce is first made from spices such as cloves, allspice, coriander, pepper, and sage together with onions, carrots, and celeriac.
  • Oil, tomato paste, and red wine are used as the basis for the sauce. Vegetable broth or simple salt can also be added to the sauce.
  • The mushrooms are fried separately with onions in oil. Then the chestnuts are added to the sauce.
  • The ragout can be served with boiled potatoes and parsley.
