What I’m cooking for Thanksgiving

David and I are hosting a vegan Thanksgiving dinner for a few non-vegan (but veg tolerant) friends this year.

Here’s the menu:

Hazelnut Field Roast en croute
mashed potatoes made with cashew cream
Tofu Mom’s mushroom red wine sauce
Awesome cranberry orange relish
Fat Free Vegan Kitchen’s green bean casserole
Hobby and More’s fluffy white dinner rolls
Novel Eat’s vegan stuffing
some sort of green salad, probably winged
candied yams (to be brought by a guest, who I hope understands what “vegan” means)
Dessert: The PPK’s maple pecan pie
Libations: The Great Pumpkin martini from SnarkyVegan/JenoJoon + Two-buck Chuck (the reds are vegan)

There are a lot of delicious-sounding recipes out there. If you’re looking for gluten-free/soy free vegan Thanksgiving options, Ashley at Freshly Vegetarian curated a great list. VegWeb has more vegan Thanksgiving ideas, as does the New York Times. Really, just do a Google search and you’ll come up with tons of inspiration – it’s never been easier to serve a vegan Thanksgiving meal.
