The Alaska Vegetarian Society monthly potluck dinners
are fun and educational and there is always a wide
variety of delicious 100% plant-based food!
|
|
|
|
It is also a wonderful opportunity to meet many people who enjoy eating a plant-based diet. In addition to the great food, we have a monthly door prize drawing and a 50/50 split drawing.
Everyone is invited.
Those who are curious and those who are committed vegetarians are all welcome. You do not need to be a vegetarian to attend our events. However, any food that you bring to the potluck must be 100% plant-based.
Recipe Card
Please bring a recipe card for your dish. Include your name and a phone number or email address. This helps us all to learn great new recipes from each other.
