For Christmas every year my family gets together and instead of having a whole big meal we just have appetizers and desserts. Being a meat eating family most of the dishes are meat oriented (meat balls, chicken wings...pretty much anything to do with bacon
).
Since I don't have much of a taste for meat anymore and I'm chickening out on telling my family that I'm not really eating meat I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions for appetizers that are not meat oriented but also not "too veggie" ie: no tofu sticks with lima bean sauce
.
I'm thinking maybe stuffed mushroom caps? A creamcheese dip with veggies? Something that incorporates a meat substitue so that a meat eater wouldn't notice it would also be great too...for a laugh
Thanks,
Casey
