Getting ready for Hannukah

Stock up on oil and dust off your dreidels because it's time for Hanukkah again! I've put together a list of vegetarian and vegan Hanukkah recipes from around About.com and the web, including, of course vegan latkes and homemade applesauce. Many traditional Hanukkah foods, such as latkes and donuts, are already vegetarian and can easily be made vegan with just a few simple substitutions, so there should plenty to fill up your table with this Hannukah!
