[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think what you’ve outlined is just fine. You could add a vegan “ice cream” like tofuti to the apple pie filling if you want to dress it up. For the dishes you’re altering, vegan butter works well and tastes pretty good. [/quote]

What brand of vegan butter can you recommend?[/quote]

Miyokos is a tasty vegan butter. Their regular one is cashew based but they also make an oat milk one. Be sure to read the label jic. Earth Balance is another solid option.  Both are usually available at regular grocery stores and definitely at Whole Foods, sometimes Trader Joe’s, Target. [/quote]

Thank you.[/quote]

No problem. We also use the So Delicious  plain UNSWEETENED coconut yogurt (the green label) as a substitute when making things like mashed potatoes. It is a little creamier than plant-based milks and it gives it a nice flavor. It’s good for sauces and curries and I sub it for some of the wet ingredients in baking.

We have dairy, nut, and gluten allergies in our home - though not all same person, so cooking is creative. I was vegetarian when younger and found it helped me with cooking flexibility. You orient from a different place and learn how to substitute with ease.

Oh. Also while it’s not exactly Boursin  there is a follow your heart version of Boursin you can get it Wegmans that is amazing. Like a herbed cream cheese. If you got that and some crackers or sliced veggies it would be such a treat. A good pre-meal nosh for vegan guests. [/quote]

Don’t say or type “nosh.” Ever.[/quote]
