vegetarian thanksgiving recipe roundup

My Thanksgiving menu planning “technique”, as some might call it, usually involves me, Wednesday night, in a supermarket doing tequila shots like it’s my job. Mostly because HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN A SUPERMARKET THE NIGHT BEFORE THANKSGIVING. It is not a pretty sight.

As much as I’m sure the stress of last minute menu planning does wonders for my blood pressure (in opposite world), I thought this year I would do something different. Mix it up. Live on the edge.

And plan ahead.

You’re skeptical, I know, but the good news is that if I’m going down, you’re going down with me! And to help us out on this organized menu planning journey, I’ve compiled a list of all my favorite (vegetarian!) Thanksgiving recipes from Eats Well With Others past.

  12. What a fabulous lineup of vegetarian options for Thanksgiving! Can I come over to your place this year ? 🙂

  13. Krista says:

    We are smack in the middle of a heat wave, so the thought of baking or cooking anything makes me cringe. But I’d absolutely LOVE to make the Butternut Squash and Smoky Black Bean Kale Salad and eat it cold for days. 🙂

  14. Hotly Spiced says:

    Wow! What a lot of recipes. Whatever you serve on the day, I know it will be awesome. I know what you mean about last minute shopping. Not that we have Thanksgiving here but whenever we’re coming up to an annual holiday there’s a frenzy and usually, I’m a part of it (need to get more organised) xx
