Even before I was vegan I hated Egg Nog, mainly for the reason that it was made out of eggs. I just couldn't wrap my head around that and it just grossed me out. So when my sister Ashley told me she made a vegan egg nog I was really intrigued. The night I made my Lasagna Inspired Salad she brought it over for me to try and after one sip, I knew I was hooked. I thought it resembled the flavor and texture of egg nog perfectly, and it was the perfect holiday drink to share while watching Home Alone. You could even add a little 'holiday spirit', aka Rum, into it to make it even more festive!
Make this a new holiday tradition for you and your family this year!
