Allons enfants de la patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L’etendard sanglant est levé
Entendez vous dans les campagnes,
Mugir ces feroces soldats?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
Egorger nos fils, nos compagnes!
That’s all I know about La Marseillaise, the French National Anthem.
But I do know that I have a secret love affair with anything French… last year, about this same time, I was in Paris for the 3rd time enjoying my first ever international vacation all by myself. It was a great experience and something I recommend anyone to try at least once in their life.
To celebrate… I would like to recap a few of my favorite French-inspired vegetarian remakes for all of you who might think French food can’t be made vegetarian and delicious and authentic at the same time…
Crepes can be made without eggs… and even without gluten.
You just need to be patient and buy the right ingredients.
Crepes for Lunch or Dinner
Fill them with Spinach, Potato and Broccoli or just plain Cheese… Crepes are France’s version of the sandwich.

Crepes for Dessert
Fill them with macerated fruits or even a dulce de leche, sweet crepes are the gold standard of street-food decadence.
