Easy Vegan Hanukkah Menu, by Nava Atlas

With Hanukkah celebrations beginning this week, I am honored to share this easy vegan Hanukkah menu created by the amazing Nava Atlas! Featuring a light Middle Eastern-themed meal to accompany your plant-based latkes, along with a pair of yummy chocolate desserts, this menu makes an elegant presentation for your holiday table. Recently, Nava shared her expert vegan holiday tips on the podcast. Thank you Nava!

**Vegan Latkes for Hanukkah, Baked or Fried**: The secret to how these easy vegan latkes (potato pancakes) hold together is using cooked oatmeal or quinoa flakes instead of the traditional eggs.

**Baba Ghanouj**: An eggplant lover’s delight, this classic Middle Eastern dip, is delicious scooped up on wedges of pita or other flatbread.

**Homemade Hummus, 12 Easy & Delicious Ways**: Everyone loves hummus — or at least, everyone I know! Here’s an easy homemade hummus recipe, with 12 tasty variations.

**Israeli Salad with Pearl Couscous**: Adding pearl couscous (also known, fittingly, as Israeli couscous) to classic Israeli salad makes it more substantial.

**Chocolate-Dipped Figs**: Let’s dispense with the fried donuts, shall we, and opt for something simpler, lighter and chocolate-y, shall we? There are few desserts that are more sensuous than chocolate-dipped figs, according to Ilene Godofsky Moreno, who created this recipe. They take almost no time to make and need no baking.

**Cocoa-Date Energy Balls**: If you can’t find fresh figs, surely dried dates are easier to come by. They provide an appealing texture and sweetness to a truffle-like vegan treat.

If you do not have Nava’s cookbooks in your kitchen library, I highly recommend them! Nava is offering discounted, signed copies of her fabulous cookbooks HERE.
