Viva!’s Ultimate Guide to A Vegan Mother’s Day
If you’re celebrating Mother’s Day this year, we have the ultimate guide to make sure the day is special even in lockdown.

Activity Ideas
Cook a Special Meal
Show your mum how much you care by cooking her a delicious vegan meal. We’ve picked out our best recipes from Vegan Recipe Club to make your special meal as simple as possible:
These tasty treats make for a delicious starter for a fancy meal. The sweet roasted beetroot combined with the hazelnuts and cashew cream is truly heavenly, we’re sure your mum will love it.
This is the ultimate vegan version of the traditional Greek dish! Tender aubergines, rich vegetable mince, thick creamy béchamel sauce and lots of vegan cheese. Delicious! Enjoy it with a light salad to compliment the flavours.
Frangipane Tart by Rose Elliot
Finish off your decadent Mother’s Day meal with this light dessert by our guest chef, Rose Elliot. Light, crisp pastry with a frangipane topping over a delicate layer of jam. Everyone who tries it loves it, and we’re sure your mum will be no exception.
Movie Night
If cooking isn’t your thing, why not organise a vegan movie night with your mum. Order in our Vegan Treat Surprise Box and grab the blankets for an at-home movie experience. HOGWOOD, our vegan documentary, is a great option – have the tissues ready!
