Vegan Holiday Kitchen: More than 200 Delicious, Festive Recipes for Special Occasions throughout the Year

By Nava Atlas

This recipe is delicious! So simple yet so much flavor. Although my family insists on calling it mushroom pate, not mock chopped liver. It was a welcome addition to our seder and tasted great on both matzo and lettuce leaves. This spread would also be great on sandwiches. I will certainly make this again!

Traditional Haroset : page 116

The flavors of this haroset were very nice. However, I found that it got very watery. Perhaps this is because of the type of apple I used (Fuji) or because I processed it too long in the food processor.

Vegan Matzo Balls : page 115

I made the gluten-free variation of this recipe using quinoa flakes in place of matzo meal. I was very happy with how these turned out and how they held up in soup. However, the flavor of the quinoa flakes is very strong and somewhat distracting. In the future, I may try making these using vegetable broth in place of the water. I may also try using the quinoa flakes in place of eggs but using a combination of mashed potatoes and potato starch in place of the matzo meal.
