Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and no matter how big or small your gathering will be, it's a wonderful time to celebrate delicious plant-based food! So to help you decide what to make I've collected over 80 vegan Thanksgiving recipes perfect for your feast! Everything from appetizers, sides, main dishes, desserts, and even a few warming drinks. All of the classic recipes are included such as pumpkin pie, cheesy scalloped potatoes, green bean casserole, stuffing, creamed corn, sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes and gravy, and even holiday roasts all made totally vegan. It's the ultimate guide!
I've also included other recipes that I think would be lovely to enjoy this time of year, but may not be as traditional such as stuffed squash, seitan sausages, creamy coconut potatoes, sweet potato hummus, cranberry dip, and various homemade vegan cheeses. Whether you are vegan, plant-based, vegetarian, trying to eat less meat, or are cooking for someone who is, this list of vegan Thanksgiving recipes will help you design the perfect menu!

For many Thanksgivings I would bring a large baked winter squash stuffed with my favorite baked bean recipe. I would grow hubbard squash in my garden and find the one with the neck that most resembled a turkey.
Sam Turnbull says
Sounds lovely 🙂
