Vegan-Friendly Corporate Catering

[plumtreeblossom]

Mad props to The Hampshire House for being happy to create great vegan options for a corporate catered event. I work with many restaurants for these events, and a lot of them think it's fine to offer lettuce on a bed of lettuce with a side of lettuce as the vegan option. We have some vegans here (hi seaweedgirle!) and I want them to have great meals when we have catered events. Hampshire House wants them to, too. How does this sound?

Organic Chantenay Carrot Soup with Ginger and Lime

Mesclun Greens and Seasonal Fresh Garden Vegetables with a Champagne Vinaigrette

Crisp Polenta Cakes on a Grilled Portobello Fan over Steamed Herbed Spinach and Vegetables on a Charred Tomato Coulis

Ripe Seasonal Berries in a Grand Marnier Reduction (am looking into sorbet for this, too.)



I would so totally order that myself. I won't be at the event, but I hope it's great. Plus, The Hampshire House always sends me a box of Godiva Chocolates every time I book and event there (keep that in mind, eclecticavatar.)

Total yum. Not only is it a filling meal for vegans, but it's also an attractive option for non-vegans. Wish *those* were the leftovers atop of our file cabinets instead of the same ol' lunch wraps.

Bravo to you for your efforts and to Hampshire House for being willing to accommodate!

That menu sounds great! (And I'm not vegan, but I'm a very fussy eater, out of necessity not choice.) Yum!!!

Sounds like you found yourself a winner--yum food *and* fine chocolate! How could you go wrong?

YUM! I am not a vegan, but I would LOVE that menu. In fact it is making me hungry!
