As I’m sure is true of most food bloggers, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. Here’s why: A) I get to spend a whole day in the kitchen, which I love. B) When else is it acceptable (and encouraged) to eat until you’re stuffed to the brim? C) Leftovers. We’ll tell you how to handle those in next week’s blog post.
If you’re stressing about what to feed the plant eaters at your dinner table this Thanksgiving, fear not. There’s no need to woo a vegan with a faux turkey or anything of that nature. Most of us are thrilled with a plate full of delicious sides and maybe a slice of pie for dessert. Or, if your guests are anything like me, a second helping of vegan mac and cheese (I’m obsessed.)
For those who are up for the challenge of preparing a plant-based main course, we’ve got you covered with some delicious, hearty recipes everyone will love (including hard-to-impress omnivores). If you don’t find what you’re looking for here, be sure to check out our post from last year with six turkey alternatives for a vegan Thanksgiving.
Of course, you’ll also find some ideas for soups and salads, sides and desserts to inspire whatever dish you’re responsible for on Thursday. Okay, onto the main event. Without further adieu, here is our biggest ever roundup of vegan Thanksgiving recipes for a cruelty-free holiday!
