What do people eat for Thanksgiving?
Traditionally, a Thanksgiving lunch or dinner includes turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cornbread, gravy, cranberry sauce, PIE and all things pumpkin!
And I’ve got GREAT news! I have vegan recipes to replace ALL of these favourites! Woohoo!
What is vegan turkey?
Of course turkey is not actually vegan. I know many disagree with calling plant based foods by their traditional non-vegan names.
I get it…but here me out.
Think back to when you first starting exploring plant based foods and trying to figure out what to eat and make. I know I can’t be the only one who’s searched the web for “vegan chicken burgers“, “vegan meatballs” or “vegan orange chicken“.
Am I right?
So vegan turkey?
You’ve got store bought options, often made from soy or wheat gluten and shaped like a roast.
BUT, if you’re looking for homemade (which is probably what led you here to the BEST vegan Thanksgiving recipes), you’ve come to the right place.
