Keep the seeds, dry them and put them in your garden in April for plenty of squash in fall! I saved the seeds from one butternut and ended up with over 40 butternuts last year
I tried those recipes last night and here are some of my thoughts: - if you cook everything at once in the oven, the squash and the carrots' maple glace give away a lot of moisture, so the potatoes and the brussel sprouts won't get crispy (unfortunately) - the carrots take a lot more than 40 minutes, they even take longer than the squash - I loved the chestnuts, they were really delicoius - making two courses out of this meal would work perfectly: Squash+cranberry sauce+chestnuts amazing together! Carrots, potatoes, brussel spouts and gravy as a main :-)
Hope you guys enjoy these! I wanted to keep them simple! I'm going to have the written recipes WITH METHODS!!! UPDATE: So i wrote the recipes, and my laptop then it restarted and I lost everything I wrote, sorry for letting you guys down. I've written it in the description for now, will sort it out for the website soon! xxx so sorry!
Rachel, can we get the written recipes, pleease? I couldn't find it on your site yet. This will be my Christmas dinner, no matter what, but it would be so much easier to use your website instead of the video while cooking 😄😇❤️ thanks in advance!
This looks delicious, but what is your oven set on? (I don't even know if you can say that in English ... What I mean is for example how many degrees it is set on...)
Rachel !!! I could seriously listen to your soothing voice on replay all day . You did such a lovely job with this Christmas dinner . Please, please do a cookbook soon . You are amazing 👩🏽🍳🤗🥕🌽🥔🍅🍠
This is nice because it doesn't rely on any "meat substitutes" like most vegan/vegetarian holiday meals. I don't mind tofu and tempeh (in fact they're great in many dishes) but don't enjoy seitan which a lot of "turkey" substitutes are based on. Your focus on actual vegetables and simple ingredients is really enjoyable.
This looks so yummy! As far as Christmas songs, I love Christmas R&B music. My favorites are Let It Snow by Boyz 2 Men, Silent Night by the Temptations, She Can Have You by Tamar Braxton, Why'd You Leave Me On Christmas by B2K and 3LW's Christmas album. Those are my go-to's for Christmas music.
I always found Christmas dinner the most challenging as a vegan. Not any more. That is the best Butternut squash recipe ever !!! I cannot wait to try it. Great ideas. Thank you Rachel !
Really enjoyed your video. I'm looking for vegan dishes for my gfs mom. All I do is smoke meats for the guys but I'd like to expand. Veggie dishes are awesome too. I'm gonna try this dish and I'll let know how it turns out
I know some people aren’t a fan of using microwaves, but if you don’t mind- you should totally try microwaving potatoes rather than boiling them before roasting. It’s quick, uses less cooking tools/pots etc, and it leaves the potatoes a bit drier on the outside which allows them to crisp up better. It’s a good foolproof method to getting perfect, soft on the inside crispy on the outside roast potatoes every time. Also: totally agree re mint!! I always have mint sauce on roast potatoes. It actually wasn’t until I stopped eating meat that I realised- I never actually liked lamb- I just liked mint sauce
Lovely. Liked the idea of layers because people could mix & match them to include their own favourite flavours, so endless combinations & endless creativity, endless fun trying out different ideas. I think I would like a nutty layer in mine.
*Paul McCartney* Simply having a wonderful time. This is why. I'll keep it short. I haven't celebrated Holidays in years, but years back I was working in a Whole foods market. I kept hearing this song, and eventually I couldn't get it out my head. So there you have it!! 👍
This looks ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ... I'm a keen cook and transitioning to plant-based lifestyle .... The stuffed squash is ingenious! Vegan food just as good if not better for you than a traditional omnivore diet... It's all about understanding the vegetables and flavours! The colours look out of this world!
Thanks for sharing! You're very talented Rachel, the way you put all those veggies and flavors together, everything looks delicious. I'm so ready to start enjoying Christmas season. Song: Herald angels sing, love it.
I always love the Rachel personality thrown into these videos! The dancing especially. And on this one, the almost awkward pause before asking about the song. Keep being awesome you!
We also base our vegan christmas on root vegetables. We live in Sweden so pickeled herring we use aubergine instead of herring. Lentil is also good for veggie meatballs. There is a lot of other dishes rutabaga is i steady of christmas ham.
I am not able to get squash so I have a small pumpkin with the shape of squash and I am using it at this very moment. I must say I did not like vital wheat but after seeing you Use it I have made many of your recipe and enjoy them very much. Thank you.
Omg I'm Marvin watching this 😂 I also hated sprouts but i realised that was cos everybody who ever cooked them for me boiled them for about 2 days 😂 but if you bake them they come out so much nicer
This looks delicious! Thanks for doing this and doing it early! I'm hosting a christmas party for my (non-vegan) friends so I want to try out recipes beforehand so I can put together a delicious menu and make them go "wow is this vegan?!" 😋
I LOVE these dishes! I wish my family was Vegan, so I could make them all for Christmas...but I'll settle eating them on my own. My go-to favorite song during the holidays, is Bring Crosby's White Christmas! :-D
Just found this! Gave me some great ideas!! And thank you, thank you, thank you for that cranberry hack. I can never find fresh cranberries and I don’t really like canned. I’m going to try your crans. Thanks again. I’m a new fan!!
Christmas Music? Charles Brown's COOL CHRISTMAS BLUES....no doubt. I love the butternut squash roast, and made it when I was in college, and broke, and not really Vegan. It's a great treatment for squash when money is tight. Your entire dinner looks wonderful!
Oh rachel, i love watching your recipes.they look so wonderful and delicious.i have tried many already and love them❤ those potatoes they look beautiful
Your plate just radiated Christmas! Everything looks delicious, I think I'll try the squash. I'll stick with my Brussels though...I like them cooked with fresh lemon juice and butter. Love swing- big band Xmas instrumentals, Ella Fitzgerald, Satchmo era classics for Christmas.
I would try and make a roux instead of using cornstarch for the gravy. One part coconut oil for the fat, one part flour. But if you don't do gluten that might not work

Thanks for that tip I'm most definitely going to try that I love butternut squash☺
Great advice!

Your smile is divine Rachel 😊 Thanks for the great recipes and please enjoy your holidays. ✌
Thanks Rachel. I'm learning to be a vegan and your recipes help me when I don't know what to cook. I've tried a few of them and they are deeeelicious
Everything looks fantastic!!! Never disappointed......"this Christmas" is my fav, I don't care who is singing it. It's the best!!
Yes the original Danny Hathaway is my favourite Christmas track of all time.

Your Christmas dinner looks delicious plus I love cranberries! My favourite Christmas song is Jingle Bells.
Lovely. Liked the idea of layers because people could mix & match them to include their own favourite flavours, so endless combinations & endless creativity, endless fun trying out different ideas. I think I would like a nutty layer in mine.
Yumm, I will be making this, this year! Thank you!
*Paul McCartney* Simply having a wonderful time.
This is why. I'll keep it short.
I haven't celebrated Holidays in years, but years back I was working in a Whole foods market. I kept hearing this song, and eventually I couldn't get it out my head. So there you have it!! 👍

SO YUMMY!!!!!
Christmas Music? Charles Brown's COOL CHRISTMAS BLUES....no doubt.
I love the butternut squash roast, and made it when I was in college, and broke, and not really Vegan. It's a great treatment for squash when money is tight. Your entire dinner looks wonderful!
Just lovely and cruelty free! Definitely doing this recipe.
That looks incredible, I can already taste the flavours!
Loved this video. What do you make for breakfast on Christmas Day and what do you make for dessert for your Christmas dinner?
Love it Rachel Ama!!🍜😍😍
This looks so amazingly delicious 👏🏼
I never knew about that way to roast potatoes. Cheers!!
The season is approaching
Baby girl another beautiful recipe thank you😍😍😍
Silent Night by the Temptations is my Christmas jam! Do you know it? Also everything looks amazing as always!
That butternut squash is a win! those carrots...who would have ever thought you could do that to carrots. Can I come sit at your table 😍
Hands down Donny Hathaway- This Christmas
Your food always looks so delish and I am not even vegan!
Missknowitall I’m not vegan either, just started watching her videos to find some much healthier recipes!
Oh rachel, i love watching your recipes.they look so wonderful and delicious.i have tried many already and love them❤ those potatoes they look beautiful
Looks amazing ...I will be adding some of the recipes to my holiday spread
Your plate just radiated Christmas! Everything looks delicious, I think I'll try the squash. I'll stick with my Brussels though...I like them cooked with fresh lemon juice and butter. Love swing- big band Xmas instrumentals, Ella Fitzgerald, Satchmo era classics for Christmas.
Silent Night. My dad always used to sing it on Christmas Eve.
I would try and make a roux instead of using cornstarch for the gravy. One part coconut oil for the fat, one part flour. But if you don't do gluten that might not work
Getting ready to make this for Christmas. Wish me luck!
This looks awesome. Girl u got me ready to convert today!!
This is an exact marriage of every christmas flavor I love, I think I've stopped looking for ideas!
Thank you for sharing. I struggle with replacing the meat at Christmas and this looks amazing.
Anita Henderson no need to replace the meat, meat is great
Yes Maam! I am all over this!
