I’m rounding up 20 completely dairy-free recipes for Shavuot! In just a couple of days, Jews will be celebrating Shavuot, a Jewish holiday celebrating the giving of the Torah (Old Testament) on Mount Sinai. During Shavuot, its a custom to eat TONS of dairy food. I’m talking cheesy pastas, pastries, cheese cakes, cheese dips and everything you can imagine.
Sounds heavenly, doesn’t it? Lactaid sales are probably thriving during this time.
While it all sounds delicious, people who don’t eat dairy or can’t tolerate it as well deserve to enjoy delicious food with their families. This round up includes 20 dairy-free and gluten-free recipes, including mains, sides and desserts!
Each recipe is linked within the post! Enjoy, friends 🙂
