All these vegan Thanksgiving Recipes for main dishes are designed to be packed with flavor, but also have a wow factor when bringing them to the table. Perfect for slicing up and sharing so everyone can get involved. These are the main dishes and centerpieces that replace a traditional turkey or other meat centerpiece. They're just as festive and many can be made ahead of time, with a last minute heat-through in the oven, for a stress-free Thankgiving dinner.
Turkey-Free Turkey (and Hamless Ham)
These vegan recipes are all made with Seitan (aka vital wheat gluten or wheat meat). They have a great savory flavor and delicous when sliced and served with gravy and all the trimmings on your Thanksgiving menu.
Gluten Free and Vegan
These recipes are all completely vegan AND gluten free. So anyone with a dairy or egg allergy, as well as a gluten intolerance or even celiac disease can enjoy them. Packed with festive flavors from spices and using whole foods such as lentils and chickpeas these delicous vegan gluten-free main dishes are perfect to serve up at Thanksgiving.
If you are cooking for someone with celiac disease, please make sure you have no cross contamination possibilities in your kitchen, and use freshly cleaned silicon or metal cookware,
Wellingtons & Pies
There's something so fun about bringing a whole pie to the table. Cutting it up and serving always feels collaborative and festive, especially if you are also passing around the sides and trimmings at the same time. These delicious pies and wellingtons are packed with seasonal herbs such as sage or rosemary and wrapped up in classic filo pastry or crispy puff pastry for a spectacular vegan main.
Stuffed and Whole Roast Veggies
Stuffing and cooking a whole squash, pumpkin or even mushrooms elevates a humble ingredient into something spectacular. You can also choose to serve smaller squashes as individual servings which is perfect if you are a small group or there are only a few guests who require vegan or veggie dishes.
Of course Thanksgiving is all about the sides too. I like to make this Vegan Stuffing Balls with Tempeh and of course a big batch of Onion Gravy to pour over. It's also definitely worth trying out this Marinated Brussels Sprouts recipe as a delicious side.
