Here’s a recap of the dishes I prepared for Thanksgiving. Please forgive the poorly-lit sometimes blurry iPhone photography. I didn’t follow a recipe for anything, but I’ll list the ingredients I used.

I know it looks awful in the picture but it was amazingly delicious. Next time, I won’t put any sweet potatoes on the bottom layer because they caramelized a little too much.

I also baked an apple pie and made a huge batch of whipped coconut cream, but we were all too full to eat any dessert tonight.
What did you eat for Thanksgiving?
Wow it all looks fantastic! I had a vegan “meatloaf” made from lentils, brown rice, chia seeds, onions, and herbs. I also had vegan stuffing, and green beans with baby bella mushrooms. For dessert I made a pumpkin cake with a cream cheese frosting. Happy Holidays!
Nataly, your feast sounds like it was delicious!
That looks like an AMAZING feast! I’m going to pin it so I remember everything! I often say I’d like to host a vegan Thanksgiving or Christmas one year to show people how tasty and healthy it can be!
You should definitely go for it, Abby. As long as you avoid the fake/weird stuff like Tofurkey, I’m sure everyone will love it!
