10 Best Vegetarian & Vegan Thanksgiving Recipes

When I was living in the US, Thanksgiving was my favourite holiday. Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade followed by a day of eating and doing nothing except enjoying friends’ company.

Last week I read that all Thanksgiving turkeys pardoned by Obama ‘have died’. Apparently, their freedom was short-lived as they all developed health problems due to the way they were farmed in order to get in “good weight” on our dinner table. Quick growth in cramped housing, turkey farming is not pretty.

So if you would prefer to avoid turkey, here I have rounded up some of my favourites recipes from around the web. Enjoy!
