Raw Vegan Thanksgiving Stuffing

Raw Vegan Thanksgiving Stuffing

Raw Vegan Thanksgiving StuffingSooooooo, this recipe is going to blow your mind.

Growing up, my mom never ever made homemade stuffing. In fact, she still doesn’t. What she used (and still uses) are Stove Top stuffing in a box that she pretty much just adds water, butter and its spice packet to. Well, this year, I will no stand for this! Over the last 3 years as a vegan, I have tried to influence my family as best I can to turn away from prepackaged, processed foods and ingredients, and to turn to whole food plant based foods/ingredients. My family has made significant progress towards this way of living, but they are still far off from a full blown transition. What I have found as the easiest way to influence them to try out alternatives to their previous habits is by making the dishes myself (veganized, of course).

Raw Vegan Thanksgiving StuffingWhen Yvonne came over with her stuffing and had my mom try some, it was definitely one of those HALLELUJAH moments for my mom and I. This stuffing tastes like her favorite Stove Top stuffing, but is so much better! It is fresh, healthy, and packed with flavor.

And guess what? This dish is not just for the holidays. Well, even if it was, I will be making this year round. Serve it in lettuce boats or aside a salad and mmm mmm mm, it will be perfect.
