$\"Thanksgiving-stuffing-recipe\"$ The holidays are an interesting time for new vegans or vegetarians and their families. Traditions\u00a0rule, and that means stuffing, gravy, and all of the holiday trimmings. \u00a0What to make for the plant-eaters? \u00a0We’ve run into our fair share of less than inspired freezer aisle veggie “options”, and we’re here to say t<\/em>here is a better way!<\/em><\/p>\n

Having lived in both the north and the south, we call it either dressing or stuffing interchangeably. Whatever your kitchen names it, the dish is a holiday staple… and it needs to be great! \u00a0A perennial favourite for both our Thanksgiving or Christmas dinners, this vegan stuffing recipe combines fresh herbs, apple, and crunchy walnuts to pull the side-dish into centre stage. \u00a0Vegans and vegetarians (and their hosts), sigh no more at the holiday dinner table! \u00a0This will be the star of the show…<\/p>\n

Whether it accompanies a traditional holiday bird or stands alone, this dressing is\u00a0absolutely delicious. \u00a0To make it a main meal of it’s own accord, prepare & bake it as described. \u00a0When it’s\u00a0time to remove the tinfoil, scoop the dressing into a fully baked fall squash or pumpkin, returning it to the oven under a low broil to crisp the top.<\/p>\n
