Stuffing. Any vegan one. I seriously cannot get enough of it.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:26AM By Karen F.

Brussels sprouts and chestnuts sauteed with a bit of sugar. Might be the only one who needs Brussels sprouts!

My mother-in-law's fabulous cranberry chutney.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:27AM By Sarah

Most definitely green bean casserole. I adore the dish to death and made a great version last year from a vegweb recipe. Mhmm

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:27AM By Amy

Beautiful dumpling squash roasted to mouth-watering perfection, and stuffed with cranberry-jeweled forbidden rice.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:30AM By Sarah

No Thanksgiving is complete without that awful cranberry-sauce-in-a-can....but you have to pop it out whole so that it makes a good "thwock" sound and retains the ridges. No one actually eats it, but it's so much fun to play with :).

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:33AM By Lindsey Jordan

Vegan stuffing with cranberries!!!!!!! Delicioso!!!!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:34AM By Marci

Sweet potatoes in coconut milk with a little cardamom. And homemade cranberry sauce.

My tofurkey with giblet gravy. I love every delicious bite.

Stuffing, preferably cornbread :-)

Thanksgiving is not Thanksgiving without my wife's candied yam concoction made only better with the addition of vegan marshmallows.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:36AM By Claire

It would not be Thanksgiving without sweet potatotes, but hold the marshmallows, please!!!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:37AM By Rebecca J.

Gotta have vegan pumpkin pie! I suppose that's more of a dessert than a side dish... Well, mashed potatoes and gravy is another must-have on Thanksgiving. Isa Chandra Moskowitz's Punk Rock gravy, of course. Don't forget to add the nutritional yeast at the end!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:37AM By Amber

Veganized Shepards Pie! Delish!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:38AM By Julie

A few years ago, my Mom asked me to make a green bean casserole for Thanksgiving. I made the soup base from scratch, and I was especially thrilled when my father said it was the best he'd ever tasted - and when I told him it was vegan, he was really impressed. I love those moments where you can show that vegan food not just as good as the omnivore version, but even better. I am still asked to make the green bean casserole every year.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:38AM By Nat

Chestnut stuffing! absolute best - even 10 days after :)

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:39AM By Kelly

Not sure if it's the fiance or the dish, but last year's vegan butternut squash and sage stuffing by a then-omnivore boyfriend will be even better this year...now that my dreamboat is a vegetarian and has yet to stop impressing me with his culinary skills.

I cannot live without garlic mashed potatoes!!! I only allow myself this treat for Thanksgiving and since I only get it once a year, I indulge to the MAX!!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:44AM By Mary L.

Thanksgiving isn't Thanksgiving without the basic mash potatoes and gravy. I don't ask for much! :-)

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:44AM By Callie

On Thanksgiving, I can't live without pumpkin pie. We always make plenty so that we have some leftover afterward.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:45AM By Noelle

Mushroom gravy.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:49AM By Bonnie

I have to have my mom's homemade 'overnight buns'. They are soooo wonderful warm out of the over, fluffy, but not mushy, spread with pumpkin butter, or blackberry jam, or stuffed with seitan and cranberries, or just plain. I finally learned to make them myself and veganized them. They are a lot of work, but so worth!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:51AM By Stephanie

It definitely has to be candied yams for me. I only get/make them once a year and it is glorious.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:51AM By Amy Bradley

Mashed potatoes with Earth Balance and homemade mushroom gravy :)

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:54AM By Joy

Thanksvegan would not be Thanksvegan without my mom's baked mac & cheese! We switch it with the non-vegan stuff at the family dinner and nobody is the wiser, they think it's delicious!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:54AM By Lorena

I can't live without my Filipino grandma's sweet rice stuffing -- she started making it for me in high school when I went veg!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:55AM By Heather

Mashed turnips! Mmmmm.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:56AM By Angela

I'm all about the stuffing -- always have been, always will be! My mom now saves aside some and simply bakes it in foil so I can enjoy it vegan.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 10:57AM By Stacey Groth

I can't live without my homemade shiitake gravy! So scrumptious slathered on just about anything (well, maybe not the chocolate pie).

It's all about the candied yams with apples. It is my most favorite holiday side dish ever.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:06AM By katherine Okon

Thanksgiving has become more creative for us every year. We add new and delicious sides that seem to be a hit. However, I'd have to say the ONE side that everyone agrees is a must on this day is....mashed potatoes.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:07AM By Leah

cornbread pudding!

have to agree with a poster above: cranberry-sauce-from-a-can, ridges and all. (though i have to admit that i also do eat it.) it just wouldn't be t-day without the can o' "sauce"...

whichever one has the most sweet potatoes in it! :)

I cannot live with out spinach sauteed with evoo, garlic, salt, and pepper. It is not traditional for Thanksgiving, but my family has always had it. :)

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:44AM By BeBe

I love and must have roasted root vegetables and homemade cranberry-orange sauce.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:44AM By Christine

I didn't have sweet potatoes growing up, but one Thanksgiving away from home in rural Tennessee I had them for the first time (unfortunately the cruel marshmallow kind - I wasn't vegan yet), I was hooked! Now, I'll make a huge batch with a crumble topping even when it's just the two of us!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:46AM By Shane

Its all about the stuffing!!!!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:47AM By Aisha

Pick one, really? If it has to be, then stuffing it is. Rasins, apples, walnuts and whatever other goodies to toss in... It just isn't Thanksgiving without it!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:53AM By Catherine

Definitely stuffing!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:54AM By Allison

I simply can't make it through Thanksgiving without sweet potatoes! Since going veg I have experimented with so many different recipes sans marshmallows, and not only has it been fun, it's been tasty too!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 11:54AM By Beth

mashed potatoes - the way my mom makes them. i'd be happy with just a plate full of them... oh, and roasted brussels sprouts with almonds and pearl onions...

My mother's sweet potato casserole with pecans on top. She used to make a small vegan pan for me until the rest of the family realized the vegan one actually tastes better! Now everyone eats the vegan version exclusively.

I definitely cannot live without cider glazed carrots! My absolute favorite item on the Thanksgiving table!

thanksgiving disaster: everything mixed together covered in cranberry and gravy sauce. like some seitan loaf, mashed taters, stuffing, roasted veggies. *drool* it's the only way to eat holiday foods

Posted: Nov 06 2009 12:07PM By Crystal

I love vegan mashed potatoes! Homemade with the potato skins left on. I make them with a little enriched almond milk for moisture & vitamins, freshly chopped garlic, sea salt, crushed black pepper and nutritional yeast for some B12 and flavor.It's so delicous!

Stuffing or Dressing by any other name...Has to be there followed by Sweet Potato Pie. All Vegan.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 12:16PM By ewlake

Sounds odd, but stuffed dates are a must. It's a recipe handed down from my mom's side of the family - dates filled with nut butter (pb, almond, etc., then rolled in powdered sugar.

I'm from the South, and the side dish I can't live without is vegan yellow squash casserole!

Thanksgiving is all about the stuffing for me! (obviously, as long as it wasn't actually "stuffed" into...well, you know)

Posted: Nov 06 2009 12:58PM By Trina

The one and only mashed potatoes and mushrrom gravy - even before going veg! I can't leave out pumpkin pie - but that is dessert!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 13:03PM By Edain

Dressing and mushroom gravy are necessary at my Thanksgiving.

Whipped potatoes - then put in a casserole dish, topped with vegan margarine and baked until golden on top.

Mashed potatoes and gravy. I adapted a recipe for gravy from the vegweb site and it's delicious on mashed pototes made with soymilk and earth balance.

I never measure so here's what you'll need - play with it... and I'm sure you'll be a hit! People that hate broccoli love this dish! Steamed Broccoli Cooked Basmati Rice Cream of Mushroom Soup (I make from scratch so it's Vegan) Veganaise Cheddar and Italian Style Cheezes (Daiya is best) Plain Soy Creamer Sea Salt and Pepper Cheddar like Crackers crumbled on top with a little extra cheeze : O) YUM!!!

My favorite cannot be chosen b/c I love stuffing and mashed potatoes soooo much. This would be a great victory for me b/c I'm in Japan now and don't have the stuff available to make myself a good thanksgiving dinner... plus this is my 1st thanksgiving as a vegan/vegetarian!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 16:25PM By Samantha

Has to be my mashed potatoes - learned from grandma and mom, veganized by me!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 16:26PM By Leah Hammer

I positively cannot have Thanksgiving without the Veggi version of my Mother's special Matzo stuffing. the combination is better than a traditional bread stuffing and has all sorts of yummy ingredients, Nuts, craisons, sauteed onions and garlic, and mushrooms the usual herbs and spices and water chestnuts. It's rich, filling and oh soooooo good!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 16:26PM By Danielle

It's just not Thanksgiving without asparagus, brussels sprouts, and sweet potatoes. ohhh sweet potatoes, how I love thee!

Mulled Organic Cranberry Jelly made with local Cape Cod cranberries. It's the best!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 16:55PM By Kari

I can't believe that I have to choose just one but here it is. Sweet potato biscuits and brown gravy (from Vegan Vittles) get my juices flowing on Thanksgiving Day (and to be honest almost every Fall day)!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 17:02PM By Amy

Sweet potato casserole! I actually made several of these about a month ago from the last of my CSA sweet potatoes and frooze them. Makes an easy and delicious dish for Thanksgiving!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 17:09PM By Chessa

One dish I can't live without (there really are several!) is what our family lovingly refers to as "Crapple." This is a cranberry-apple crisp kind of thing - a can of cranberry sauce, some chopped apples, and an oatmeal-brown sugar topping drizzled with melted Earth Balance - How can you not love it!?! My grandma's cornbread stuffing is also the bomb, and I look forward to it all year!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 17:18PM By Craig

Without question it's Green Bean Casserole. Grandma made it, Mom Made it, My sister made it and now I make it for my wife and I. It's the one dish that if it were missing it wouldn't be Thanksgiving

mushroom sage stuffing with vegan gravy--so yummmy!!!!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 17:46PM By Gabrielle

Every year I make Cranberry Orange relish, and it is fantastic! For me, it's not Thanksgiving without it. It has fresh cranberries, vegan sugar, freshly squeezed orange juice, orange rind, orange liqueur (this makes all the difference), ground cloves and ginger, allspice, and toasted chopped walnuts - I start to salivate jut remembering all that goes into it, and picturing how fun it is to prepare, watching it thicken as it heats, the cranberries popping... I can't wait to make this year's batch!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 18:02PM By Jude

Sweet potatoes hot out of the oven (in skin) with Earth Balance on top and a little sprinkle of sugar.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 18:25PM By Sandy

My family loves the mashed potatoes, but my favorite is roasted veggies with olive oil. Don't forget the pumpkin pie!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 18:34PM By Jenn

I can't live without Mashed Potatoes with Earth Balance, yummy.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 18:36PM By Lilangel Logan

I love the warmth of mashed potatoes and gravy, dressing and cranberry sauce, but the sweet taste of a cool dessert as well! Pumpkin pie a la mode after a warm meal is true love!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 18:42PM By Jain

If I could only have one dish at Thanksgiving, it would be smashed potatoes made with soy milk and Earth Balance, served with mushroom tarragon gravy.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 19:01PM By A Mac

Mom's Apple crisp. It's not technically a side dish but if I had my way, it would be.

sweet and sour red cabbage with apples and cherries, my mouth is puckering thinking about it!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 19:40PM By Marc

Rosemary and dill mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy. To die for!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 19:40PM By Rebecca

Native Wellington is nothing short of AMAZING! For a side dish, I would be crushed without a green bean dish--serve it up with almonds, or walnuts or tofu cheese, it doesn't matter! Just give me a big heap of green beans!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 19:50PM By ndevelopment

homemade corn bread!

Posted: Nov 06 2009 20:10PM By Nicole

vegan snickerdoodles w/ Tofutti vanilla....desserts are a side, right?

Posted: Nov 06 2009 20:13PM By Sheena

My favorite dish is either cornbread stuffing with home made oven roasted chestnuts, or sweet potatoes with a brown sugar and pecan glaze.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 20:51PM By RubyShooZ

What I'd miss most is peas and pearl onions. I know it's an off item but it's one that's been on every thanksgving table where I've been involved in the cooking.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 21:17PM By Angie Pohlman

Green bean casserole. With the fried onions. Hands down.

Posted: Nov 06 2009 21:48PM By Melissa

It just wouldn't be Thanksgiving without yams/sweet potatoes!

Posted: Nov 07 2009 06:41AM By Lv Hockhart

It just isn't Thanksgiving without buttercup squash picked from my garden and filled with vegan stuffing made with bread cubes, celery, onion, pumpkin seeds and vegan "chicken" broth. Delicious. I usually make it more of a casserole and people can't get enough ... even some people who "hate squash" love this dish! I put lots of Earth Balance on top while baking to make it all buttery. YUMMMMMMM ... now I can't wait for Thanksgiving dinner.

Posted: Nov 07 2009 07:08AM By Julie

So simple but what I gotta have are cranberries on my plate. The one thing that everyone can eat for Thanksgiving that is a vegan dish. The tartness of the cranberries along with the savory flavors of Thanksgiving favorites really compliment my whole plate and palate. Yay for cranberries!

Posted: Nov 07 2009 09:51AM By Jenny T

I love fresh pumpkin cooked with raisins, pecans, coconut and cooked into a casserole like sweet potatoes.... delicous!!!

There's no way I can live without my Thanksgiving stuffing!

Posted: Nov 07 2009 10:52AM By Jill

Gotta be the stuffing. I don't even care if there is anything to go with the stuffing. It's the only time of year we actually make it, so gotta love it...Vegan Eggnog must be drunken with it as well!

I absolutely love cranberry sauce and always seem to finish it on my own every Thanksgiving....

Posted: Nov 07 2009 12:30PM By Katie

Mashed Potatoes and gravy (vegan obviously)-- you could lose the whole rest of the meal in a freak accident and if the mashed potatoes are saved, it's still Thanksgiving : )

Posted: Nov 07 2009 13:02PM By Julia

I love apple pie for Thanksgiving(and any other time of the year really)!

Posted: Nov 07 2009 13:14PM By Erin

I find it almost embarrassing how much I love cranberry sauce from a can. It's just not Thanksgiving without it for me!

My favorite Thanksgiving side dish that I can't live without is definitely my mom's mashed potatoes. She always makes them just the way I like them, with lots of lumps and so good. These are so comforting and really make me feel the warmth of the holiday.

Posted: Nov 08 2009 06:44AM By Miriam Mendoza

I cannot live without pumpkin and potato soup as a side dish during Thanksgiving

Posted: Nov 08 2009 06:47AM By Portia

I love the day after "feast" when I can pile mashed potatoes, veggies, and Tofurky in a bowl and smother them in gravy. All of the flavors meld together so well.

After almost 12 years of being vegan and missing my mom's traditional broccoli and cheese casserole at our family dinner, I've decided I can't live without it! This year I'm making my own version! :D I'm so excited to see if it measures up to the original, only mine will be better- tastier and compassionate. :) Something to be grateful for!

Posted: Nov 08 2009 09:45AM By Michelle P

It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without my family's stuffing recipe that is now vegan, thanks to my mom. It also has to have my special gravy on top!

The one Thanksgiving dish that I can't live without is my mom's vegan sweet potato souffle'. It is so good that I literally gorge myself, and then I get on my own case for not pacing myself. It is insanely good. Alicia Webster 5webs@comcast.net

Posted: Nov 09 2009 09:39AM By Rachel Mertz

I always feel that Thanksgiving meals leave me feeling heavy and lethargic. So, I crave raw, fresh veggies and fruit more than anything. When I fill up on fresh fruits and veggies I still have room for Pie!

Posted: Nov 09 2009 11:07AM By amy thomas

i like the roasted chestnut,carmelized onion, white beans, and squash casserole in Veganomicon. YUMMM!!

Posted: Nov 09 2009 15:38PM By Tessa R.

Yams baked with Marshmallows on top. A family tradition I'll be able to eat once more now that there's Dandies.

Every Thanksgiving since I was real little, my grandma has made yams with marshmallows on top (I know they're not vegan, sorry!!!). Happy thanksgiving!

Far and away, the best part of Thanksgiving at my house is my grandmother's cappelletti in spicy tomato broth (I make my own, with a mushroom filling instead of the traditional pork.)

Posted: Nov 09 2009 16:18PM By Julie Rose

I am so proud that I put together an all Vegan Thanksgiving last year! My favorites candied yams, stuffing, green bean casserole, and pumpkin pie.

I can't live without homemade cranberry sauce! I wish I could just sit down with the entire bowl!!

Posted: Nov 09 2009 16:28PM By Vicki

This is my first Thanksgiving as a vegan so I am not 100% sure what I'll be able to veganize but top on my list of things I must enjoy on Thanksgiving is stuffing! (and gravy...oh and pumpkin bread, too. And mashed potatoes. Oh man! Stopping there because this list could go on forever and it's making me drool.)

Posted: Nov 09 2009 16:30PM By Amy

My favorite dish must be Green Bean Almondine!I have had it since I was a child and it is perfect for a veggie Thanksgiving!

Posted: Nov 09 2009 16:53PM By emma

Nothing beat pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving!

Posted: Nov 09 2009 16:55PM By Veronica

The vegan stuffing my non-vegan mother developed for me, based on an old family recipe for stuffing. It's a bread stuffing w/mushrooms, onions, raisons, cranberries, walnuts, celery etc. It's really amazing, by far the best I've ever had and I've had many over the years. It is delicious, but what I love most about it is how much thought and love my mom put into developing it for me.

Posted: Nov 09 2009 17:20PM By monelle

I will have to 2nd the mashed potatoes and vegan gravy!

Definitely mashed potatoes!

Posted: Nov 09 2009 18:49PM By Jennifer

I just love a good vegan stuffing and it would be a sad sad holiday indeed without all of the savory goodness next to my Tofurkey roast. I like mine to be very simple; just celery, onion, mushrooms and garlic mixed with vegetable broth mixed with bread cubes (sometimes cornbread!)and baked till kind of crispy... I want some now in fact - even if it is almost 10 pm on the east coast.

Posted: Nov 09 2009 19:28PM By Jo Perry

My family's traditional holiday side dish is a broccoli, cauliflower and cheddar casserole. I can't make it without the equally delicious, veganized version.

Thanksgiving for me wouldn't be complete without my favorite side dishes present, our daughters. Favorite dishes, new recipes and old favorites are only that because of them.

Posted: Nov 10 2009 07:25AM By cathy

Most definitely, the sweet potatoes. Yum.

Posted: Nov 10 2009 07:26AM By Natalie

Since mashed potatoes are my favorite food - Thanksgiving or not - I will miss them terribly on my first Vegan Thanksgiving. But not enough to stop being Vegan!

Roasted Carrots with fresh dill. Only then is it really Thanksgiving. :)

mashed potatoes and gravy. have to go with the classics!

Posted: Nov 10 2009 08:00AM By Amey

wow, what a super cool idea for a giveaway!! I really like all those tasty side dishes, but I think the number one most important one for me is mashed potatoes & gravy. Because I really love them, and I just don't make them much otherwise. So Thanksgiving is my big chance to indulge. Mmmmm. almost there!

Posted: Nov 10 2009 08:23AM By jessy

for me the side i love the most would be brussel sprouts - roasted, drizzled with a little olive oil, & served with toasted walnuts! mmmmmmmm!

Posted: Nov 10 2009 08:50AM By Rachel

Yam with cinnamon toppings!!

Posted: Nov 10 2009 08:50AM By amalia

So many to choose from! But I'd have to say mashed potatoes since I don't eat them all that often except for the holidays. This will be my FIRST vegan Thanksgiving and I'm so happy I can still indulge in my favorite side dish (with a little tweaking of course!)

Definitely stuffing! It's not the healthiest thing you can eat so we only have it for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

My aunt makes a homemade cranberry-orange relish to die for! Can't live without it = )

*** I love home made cornbread and gravy! All vegan of course! ***

Posted: Nov 10 2009 14:41PM By Sarah

One year I discovered how to make roasted root vegetables with parsnips and other unorthodox veggies. Its now one of my favorites and different side to have. Another is stuffed peppers which may not seem Thanksgiving like, but are delicious. I usually have to go to family events ladden with everything meat, so I take my own dinner and everyone is perplexed by the cornocopia of veggies they have never seen!

Thanksgiving ins one of the few meals where you could eat all sides and not even need a main dish! .. I'd have to say, though, I love a vegan gravy and Mashed Potatoes with cream "cheese" and eb... mmm.. thanksgiving deliciousness... why is it so far away..

Posted: Nov 11 2009 08:19AM By Adena Dudney

I am obsessed with the green bean casserole with crunchy onions on top. I made it for a vegan potluck last year and it was a hit!

On Thanksgiving, I cannot go without the stuffed acorn squash! The stuffing is a mixture of veggies, apples and wild rice. So yummy! Sometimes we sprinle them with pomegranate and pumpkin seeds too. Oh, now I'm hungry!

There's no way I can have a Thanksgiving without sweet potatoes :) I remember one year I made these vegan empanadas stuffed with sweet potatoes, cinnamon and brown sugar. It goes great with everything! Especially brown sugar!

Sweet potatoes! I'm thinking of using Vegan Soul Kitchen recipes this year!

Posted: Nov 11 2009 12:15PM By Suzanne

Green beans roasted with olive oil and salt...I can't make enough of them because the kids keep eating more than their fair share. Are they healthier than french fries? Maybe..... But any veggies roasted with EVOO and salt are winners here.

Posted: Nov 11 2009 12:22PM By Melissa

Stuffing is my favorite side dish for Thanksgiving. I need stuffing, because without it, Thanksgiving dinner just wouldn't be the same.

Posted: Nov 11 2009 12:24PM By Caitlyn

Sweet potatoes with dried cranberries, pecans, and brown sugar please!

OK,it may not be "traditional",but every year since going vegetarian i have made a pasta veggie salad,and it turns out so good,i have to fight all my meat eating relatives off in order to get any! i always make it more festive by varying veggies to go with the holiday red and green.

Posted: Nov 11 2009 13:26PM By Ashley Mauceri

sweet potato casserole! YUM!! :)

Posted: Nov 11 2009 13:53PM By Patty Kwiatek

I always make my late mother's sage dressing, traditional made with 2 kinds of bread using veggies and veg broth instead of chicken broth. Everyone loves it at Thanksgiving.

Posted: Nov 11 2009 14:15PM By Lisa

Posted: Nov 11 2009 16:59PM By paula

The foods are impossible to settle on just on--pumpkin pie (all homemade) noodles(all homemade) are always done from my moms recipes. THe gotta have it side though is the gathering of family with whom to enjoy these tates and to cook them for.

Posted: Nov 11 2009 17:10PM By Harpist

I can't live without something GREEN -- preferably spinach in a big salad or fresh green beans sauteed in garlic and olive oil.

Can't live without the cozy feeling of the day- the aroma's from my kitchen, all the flavors and colors of the yummy veggies, the parade on tv and family gathering. The greens, oranges, and sienna colors of the season are all reflected in the meal- corn bread stuffing, cranbery sauce, Brussels sprouts, sweet potato pie- are ALL my favorite sides!

Posted: Nov 11 2009 17:36PM By Martha

Sweet potato casserole - yum! My mouth is watering just thinking about it!

sweet potatoes

Posted: Nov 11 2009 19:22PM By Sally Blake

Brussels Sprouts are traditional in my family; even with the non-vegan branch. Until my Mom passed away 2 years ago, it was a tradition to pick the sprouts off from the spikes on Thanksgiving morning to have with dinner. Now that Mother is gone, we just blanch them and freeze them to cook on Thanksgiving. sjb

Can't live without??? POTATOES!! Any kind, but mashed preferred. I can make a Thanksgiving meal out of a baked potato, a large helping of vegan mashed, a side of french fries, a sweet potato..... Yum.

Posted: Nov 12 2009 05:24AM By Lara

Normally, I would have said my sweet-potato casserole and a savory slice of Tofurkey! But I recently (for Halloween) made individual cinnamon apple pies - adapting a recipie from VegWeb - and they are DELICIOUS!!!! The sugar caramelizes and forms a fantastic crunch with the apples and pie crust! I probably *can* live without it, but why would I want to? ;-)

Posted: Nov 12 2009 05:35AM By Karen

Mashed turnips (rutabagas), and my sweet potato casserole: thin slices of sweet potatoes layered with apple slices, dotted with margerine, drizzled with maple syrup..cover and bake til potatoes are semi-temder, uncover and brown.

Roasted root veggies carmelized in really well-aged Balsamic Vinegar -- simply divine!

Posted: Nov 12 2009 10:22AM By Scott Finfgeld

Um...by side dishes, surely you must be referring to the desserts which (in my humble opinion) inspire way more "thanks" than the actual meal. I definitely look forward to plowing through a couple of individual Upside Down Apple Gingerbread Cakelets and let's not forget the Pumpkin Gingerbread Cupcakes With Maple Cream Cheese Frosting!!! Yeah baby, yeahhhhh! Now we're talkin'!!!

Posted: Nov 12 2009 10:42AM By Pete Gingrass

My favorite is roasted sweet potato salad with pecans and green onions. Yum!

Posted: Nov 12 2009 11:03AM By Noni

I like to make a seitan roast filled with whole grain stuffing. I just roll it up like a jellyroll.Of course there has to be lots of veggie gravy and dreamy mashed potatoes!

Posted: Nov 12 2009 11:14AM By Rick

I just have to have any type of savory(sage, rosemary or thyme or all herbs)whole grain bread dressing with veggie sausage and mashed golden fleshed potatoes - all covered in a rich tasting tamari-based gravy with a hint of rosemary or thyme.

Sweet potatoes & vegan stuffing

Posted: Nov 12 2009 13:56PM By Ryan

Any of the side dishes I can eat at the in-laws' that I can eat, I'm thankful for. And because My mother-in-law is awesome, it's usually close to all of them, despite the fact that my wife and I are the only veg people at their Thanksgiving dinner each year. I guess I've always been partial to stuffing.

Posted: Nov 12 2009 14:24PM By Emi

I cannot live without stuffing. It's filling and totally awesome.

Posted: Nov 12 2009 15:28PM By Dusty

I cannot live without green bean casserole at Thanksgiving. Why don't we make it all year long! YUM! Of course I have to make it and no one can tell that it's Vegan and I DON'T TELL THEM!

Posted: Nov 12 2009 18:36PM By Mena

My aunts baked sweet potatoes, I won't get to have them this year though because she passed away in may and never told anyone how to make them. She was old and batty that way <3

Posted: Nov 12 2009 19:04PM By Christina

I go NUTS for my mum's homemade stuffing that she's been making for as long as I can remember, even before I was vegan. She starts it off with coincidentally-vegan store-bought stuffing mix and adds chopped apples, cranberry, and other vegan loveliness. (To keep the secret safe, I just so happen to never see her making it.) I'd have it every day if I could, but I guess that would make it less special :)

Posted: Nov 12 2009 19:20PM By allison

BROCCOLI!!!!!!!!!!!!! I guess that really applies to any day, however..

Posted: Nov 13 2009 19:13PM By li!sa

I substituted sunflower seeds for walnuts in the stuffing one year (with celery and green onions) and I have to make it every year. My daughter won't even attempt it! Dumplings simmered in vegetable broth. I MISS cranberry sauce made with walnuts and an orange. It was raw and made in a food processor. Now I gotta go look it up....!

Every Thanksgiving, we always looked forward to my mom's home made cornbread stuffing, never stuffed in anything of course. And she always made it from scratch. Chunky, savory, fragrant, herby. Nothing else like it. Ever.

Posted: Nov 16 2009 22:15PM By foggyvegan

Freshly made cranberry relish with fresh cranberries, apples, and oranges. My mom always made a huge bowl for Thanksgiving and we would eat it with oatmeal for breakfast for at least a week after!

I would have to say it is a vegan redux of my daughter, Sev's, childhood favorite,easy, broccoli souffle. We just put our heads together~got rid of all the nasty stuff~and came up with a BETTER recipe! The best part of all this is that a 47 yr. old mom and her AMAZING 19 yr. old daughter look forward to the time spent cooking a feast together & sharing our lifestyle with our friends and family!!

I can't live without creamy mashed potatoes (made with vegetable broth) and mushroom gravy. I like to add a lot of Earth Balance to this, too.

I can skip everything except pumpkin pie. I have to resist temptation to make one before Thanksgiving because pumpkin really says "Holidays!" for me. Thank Heaven for tofu!

The only thing I must have on Thanksgiving is sweet potatoes with vegan marshmallows. A little brown sugar, bake until the marshmallows are brown and gooey... Oh, man. I can live without all the rest, but take away my sweet potatoes and there's nothing worth giving thanks for.

Posted: Nov 19 2009 13:31PM By Zee Ache

Maybe it sounds weird... but Vegenaise! Think about it -- it's crazy useful! Tastes good mixed with some mashed potatoes, in gravy ok maybe I'm alone here, but we can all agree that no Thanksgiving is complete without a leftover sandwich piled high with Tofurky (or other vegan roast of your choice), cranberry sauce, stuffing and what else? Vegenaise!

Posted: Nov 19 2009 13:36PM By Michelle

I can't live without....Green Bean Casserole! In my pre-vegan days it was just so-so (made with cream of mushroom soup) but now that I've found Susan Voisin's recipe over at FFVK, I can't do without it. I love it!
