My Dad is like most Dads, very hard working and does not know the meaning of vacation. He visits every few years for a month and before the plan is finalized, he always makes sure he will have something to do. He made a super sturdy King Size Bed Frame for us in his 2013 visit. Go figure. This was his vacation 🙂
It is next to impossible to get him to sit through a 3 hour Hindi movie. I sometimes wonder if he even likes going to the beach. Its fun watching hubbs and Dad together. Hubbs loves spending time on the beach or a park, just sit and think and watch, and Dad sits there and it seems like he is liking it, but 15 minutes later he starts to look impatient.:)
This Vegan Father’s Day Recipes round up is dedicated to him. He might try some of these recipes, but the way to his heart and stomach is simple Indian food filled with vegetables and dals 🙂 Happy Father’s Day Dad!

Today is one of those days when I really wish I could have discovered veganism sooner and shared that discovery with my Dad before he passed away. Maybe if I had he would still be with us. I’m not sure I could have ever gotten him to try anything with cauliflower in it, but I bet he would’ve liked those Sweet Potato Peanut Burgers 🙂
I wish your dad a Happy Fathers Day! What a great recipe list!
