MSNBC’s Vegan Thanksgiving

In honor of National Vegan Month and the growing popularity of the vegan lifestyle, MSNBC is sharing plant-based Thanksgiving recipes courtesy of vegan authors Sarah Kramer and Dynise Balcavage. Balcavage, the mastermind behind the blog UrbanVegan and author of Celebrate Vegan, contributes Fig-Pecan Stuffed Acorn Squash; Seitan with Apples, Quince, and Onion; and Chocolate-Swirl Cheesecake. Kramer, the owner of vegan lifestyle store Sarah’s Place and author of How It All Vegan and La Dolce Vegan, offers a Wilted Kale Super-Salad, Savory Shepherd’s Pie with Mushroom Gravy, and Pumpkin Pie. “While the holidays can be a trying time for vegans and carnivores to come together,” the article states, “[they are] just the sort of peace-keeping moment Thanksgiving was made for.”
