They say you are what you eat.
She could have gone Vogon. In which case you'd be subject to hours of shit poetry.
The supermarkets do vegan ranges but they don't tend to be very exciting. Lots of vegan burger and rissole and nut roast type recipes out there although finding your nearest Indian sweet shop or large grocer and getting samosas,etc, in is the easier and possibly tastier route.
If you want some posh chocs the Bendicks dark chocolate range is all suitable for vegans and in supermarkets this time of year.

There are loads of options really, good suggestions from @erictheweary above.
Dips are always good, it's really easy to make things like aubergine dip or mushroom pate. There's loads of Mediterranean stuff, olives, patatas bravas, salsa's etc, all quick and easy to make.
If you're used to having mini pork pies and loaded potato skins in such scenarios, rather than looking at it as either a headache or vegan piss taking session (hard to tell where you are really coming from here ), look at it as an opportunity to broaden your own culinary knowledge. Even meat eaters should be eating vegetarian or vegan a good part of the time, even if you don't think of it as so. Some of the suggestions you might actually enjoy......
There's loads of stuff, but the main thing to remember is that if it was once alive and then hacked to pieces then neither will want to eat it. Her partner however will be happy to drink their breast milk and eat their periods as he's a sick fuck.
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
If it is buffet stuff then a rice dish, a pasta dish, loads of humous, Indian nibbles, nuts etc.
Don't forget the alcohol. Co-op wines are labelled.
And dessert. You should find a Christmas pudding and just add soya cream or soya vanilla dessert.
Do a list before and let her sign-off as any mistakes will blow up out of all proportion.
And don't forget to buy them a puppy.
I used to do a mean spicy Chestnut stuffing for a veggie pal of mine (breadcrumbs, horseradish etc), he used to have all the Christmas veg (provided not roasted in goose fat) with vegan gravy and loved it. Did it with and without nut/tofu roast.
Also - do sprouts with chestnuts instead of, or as well as bacon

They go mad for that shit.
If you do roast potatoes watch out how you cook them - My first properish job was a waiter many years ago.. had this vegan in who was very vocal about the whole thing.. changed the roast meal to accommodate. Told them that the potatoes were cooked in duck fat.. they said that's fine. I imagine for most other vegan that's not fine
