Sixteen Menu Ideas for a Vegan Easter ( Pascha ) (12 GF)

Kali Anastasi! Good Resurrection! (Icon from Kykkos Monastery)
Here are some ideas for what to serve at your upcoming Pascha meal - whether you're serving an all-Vegan feast, or serving a traditional Omnivore feast with some Vegan dishes for variety (or for guests).  

I don't know who all of my readers are, but I know of at least two groups: 1) dedicated full time Vegans and 2) Orthodox Christians who are looking for "fasting" recipes for Lenten Seasons, such as Great Lent, Advent, and Wednesdays and Fridays throughout the year, but when the big Christian Feast days hit, are not looking at my blog!

This post is for the first group, who may be looking for festive dishes to serve for their upcoming Pascha Feast ("Pascha" is the Orthodox Christian word for Easter) 

To the second group, I simply say "Kali Anastasi!" "Christos Anesti" - enjoy your (
very non Vegan ; ) Feast!

French Crepes  (GF)
 These are great if you like to serve a Pascha Brunch 



Grilled Mushroom Kabobs ( Manitarakia ) 
Serve with Pita & a Traditional Salad Dressed with Lemon Juice



 Greek Tahini Dip





Stuffed Eggplant




Zucchini Mock Crab Cakes







Rosemary Roast Potatoes ( Slow Cooker )





 Simply Asparagus








Veggies Vinaigrette



Carrot Raisin Salad without Mayonnaise





Fattoush




Lentil & Rice Salad



Orange Beet Salad

    Yum these dishes look wonderful. We aren't vegan, but I do like to have meatless meals every now and then. This is a nice roundup of some good options for us.

      Thank you so much for your kind words! I think probably most of my readers aren't Vegan - which pleases me. Everyone benefits from more plant based meals, even if they do eat other foods, too : ) So glad you visited!
