This World Vegan Day, check out these vegan dishes you can include in your wedding menu!
Veganism is a philosophy and way of life which involves dispensing any product derived wholly or partially from animals. This includes a variety of food items such as meat, milk, eggs, cheese, fish, honey and more. Since the spread of its awareness, veganism has gained a lot of followers including celebrities such as Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma, Akshay Kumar, Sonam Kapoor and others. People motivated against animal abuse, and towards animal protection turn vegan in order to save animals from abuse and overwork.ย
While many think that vegan dishes are bland in taste with no exciting flavours itโs actually the quite opposite. Vegan food is filled with a variety of flavours and can make for a fulfilling meal.
