6 Tips for a Vegan Thanksgiving Dinner
4. Thanksgiving torte for the main dish
This is a classic and never bores anyone. It is a mix of wild rice, potatoes, vegan sausages and onions served with mushroom sauce and nuts and sage. To make it easier on you, cook the wild rice the day before so you can save on time.
5. “Three sisters” stew
A pumpkin dish, this is a stew made from pumpkin squash, beans and baked corn. It is truly a thanksgiving meal as it is made from corn, beans and pumpkin, the three that are harvested around this time and the original cause for thanksgiving. Season it with chili powder, pepper and cilantro. It tastes and looks like chili, but its more about the squash.
6. Chocolate pumpkin pie
Chocolate makes everything taste better and adding it to your pumpkin pie is no exception. You can add dark chocolate to make it healthy or go for sweet and white chocolate to make it a truly sweetened dessert.
There are also a number of vegan stuffings and side dishes like cranberry chutney, baked sweet potato, scalloped corn and mashed potatoes with onion gravy that you can make to make the dinner a complete four course meal. Go vegan this thanksgiving and be the envy of you carnivorous friends with the wide array of dishes.
