We are having roast beef for the entree and I am supposed to make the dessert. What dessert goes good with roast beef? My mom thinks that apple pie is good, but I thought that some sort of Christmas cake or torte would be better since we had pie for Thanksgiving. Any ideas??

If your mom is going to the effort and expense to make roast beef for Christmas dinner, and if (I assume) you are invited to her home, it would be nice to go along with her suggestion and take the apple pie. Apple pie is a good choice with beef. I love to make big dinners and parties, but sometimes it really bugs me when someone brings something that doesn't fit in with the other foods. Maybe your mom isn't this way, or maybe you have "issues", but whatever the case, think about how she feels about the meal.

Mince Pies and Custard
Ingredients
2 grated apples
2 grated carrots
finely chopped walnut pieces
lemon
orange
vegan margarine
sultanas
mixed spice
pastry
To make the vegan mince meat for the pies combine 2 grated apples, 2 grated carrots, finely chopped walnuts (the same looking quantity as apple), lemon juice from 1 lemon plus grated rind, Orange juice from 1 orange plus grated rind, knob of vegan margarine, a generous handful sultanas (you cannot have too many) and lots of mixed spices to taste. Leave the ingredients in a covered bowl in the fridge for at least 24 hours for the flavours to come out. Use the pastry of your choice for the pies and place the mixture generously into each one.
These are delicious served warm with custard which I make from a vegan custard powder and sweetened soya milk or you can buy in the shops, and a large serving of vegan cream.
