Vegetarian Christmas Recipes (PHOTOS)

The Christmas table sees all kinds of dishes. It's not like Thanksgiving where the same recipes show up across the country -- turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy. At Christmas, some people will make a ham, others might make a turkey and then some will make vegetarian Christmas recipes as well.

Because there's no set tradition on this holiday, your vegetarian Christmas recipe options are endless -- and we've found some great ones for you to consider making for this year's feast.
