Have any veggie lovers that you need to buy gifts for? Awesome! Being a vegetarian is not what defines of course but being a veggie lover amidst a sea of carnivores does make us different. We have to plan our social outings much more carefully and also hone our cooking skills and repertoire to keep things fresh and interesting in the kitchen. We love new cooking gadgets that make meal preparation faster and new cookbooks are always welcome to. Here are some ideas:
A Sprouting System – If your veggie lover is not sprouting yet, they should be! It can be really pricey to buy sprouts at the store and they are very nourishing component of a traditional veggie based diet. This Sprouting Kit has 3 three sprouting jars with lids and lots of seeds… Alfalfa, Brocolli, Radish, Clover, Lentil, Mung Bean, Buckwheat, and Bean Salad Mix.
Spice Box – Spices are like the right hand of any good vegetarian cook. Ideally spices (and herbs) are bought in bulk or loose from natural/organic grocers but where to store them? This beautiful Indian, stainless steel spice box (above) is perfect! It has seven individual spice containers and a spoon. Another idea? Gift the spice box with a copy of Classic Indian Vegetarian and Grain Cooking.
A Vegetarian Magazine Subscription – Many people love magazines but unless you go the subscription route you can go broke! Giving the gift of a magazine subscription is practical and enjoyable. Try Vegetarian Times and Vegnews.
Vegetable Cookie Cutters – Cute! This set of Vegetables Dough Cutters are perfect for veggie lovers. Now they can spread the veggie love to their desserts and rock the next vegetarian or vegan potluck with adorable cookies. Set of 12 assorted vegetable shapes, including carrot, celery, tomato, pepper, and asparagus.
A Veggie Inspired Tee – Its not just a lifestyle, it is a statement. Vegetarians usually love apparel that reflects their values so you can’t go wrong with vegetarian themed clothing. Try the Go Veg! Organic Cotton T-Shirt or the Goodie Two Sleeves Vegetarian Dinosaur Hoodie.
A Vegetarian Cookbook – Chances are your veggie lover has lots of cookbooks so your best bet is likely going to be a broad cookbook such as World Vegetarian: More Than 650 Meatless Recipes from Around the World or a specific cuisine such as The Greek Vegetarian.
A Vegetarian Gift Basket – These actually aren’t that hard to find. Your giftee will get products they know they can use and many of them may be ones they have not tried before. Try the Vegetarian Delight Healthy Gift Basket.
