Biscuits Gravy YSJ Vegan Thanksgiving09My friends Yvonne, Sarah and I decided to create a full Thanksgiving Menu to share with you all on our blogs, to help you with planning the perfect vegan Thanksgiving feast for you and your loved ones to enjoy! Vegans and non-vegans alike will love our Thanksgiving menu!

My first contribution to our menu are these gluten-free Herbed Biscuits & Mushroom Gravy, the perfect comfort food to start off your Thanksgiving night!Biscuits Gravy YSJ Vegan Thanksgiving56In September, my boyfriend Chris took a vacation in LA, and we visited a restaurant called Gracias Madre for brunch, where we tried their biscuits and gravy. They were melt in your mouth good, topped with a vegan “bacon” gravy, caramelized onions, and cracked pepper. The flavors just exploded in our mouths, and I knew that this had to be something I would recreate very soon.

With the addition of herbs and a gravy that encompasses classic fall and thanksgiving flavors, this was spot on for the menu.  Biscuits Gravy YSJ Vegan Thanksgiving27With the help of Chris and my dad, we taste tested the first batch of biscuits I had made, and I received all around approval. The only mention that I have to add is that these biscuits are best when fresh, warm, and straight out of the oven. If you are not consuming them right away, be sure to toast them or rewarm them in the oven prior to serving.  YSJ Vegan Thanksgiving76Each day, starting Nov. 1st, a new recipe will be released on www.SweetSimpleVegan.comwww.MyEclecticKitchen.com, and www.AhnestVeggie.com until our menu is complete, so be sure to follow along!
