Got a vegan guest soon. Do any of you have suggestions for two breakfasts? I need a sweet and a savory. She'll be here two mornings. I've been thinking about a couple of choices, but wondered if I might be overlooking something tried and true.
This works best here too. When I get the request, I'll say this is what I can offer as an alternate to our hot entree (oatmeal/cereal in this case), if there are any special foods you'll need we have a fridge where you can keep them. Most people are happy to have the fresh fruit cut for them, or if they specify a type of yogurt I will get an individual container for them. But I'm not a restaurant or a specialty foods store, I don't want to spend tons of money on this specialty stuff and they eat only a little bit and then it goes to waste. This goes for all the gluten free people too, the majority of them that we get are diet choice, not true allergy. But even if it IS an allergy I can't bend over backwards.If you stick with fruits, veggies, nuts and tofu you'll probably be ok. Just remember that 'vegan' is a choice and not driven by an illness. They won't be able to eat totally vegan at lunch and dinner unless you've got places like that near you.
Avoid anything that came from anything that once had a face. (And check to see if they're wearing leather shoes or their car has a leather interior. Just to make your blood boil that you're going to lengths they don't go to themselves.)
The other option is to email the guest and say you know nothing about vegan diets and what does she eat. I find it's better for me to push the problem back on the owner than to jump thru hoops in the dark..
