Our 100% Vegan Thanksgiving Feast!
This year I was lucky enough to have
my boyfriend Chris by my side, not only to join me in the kitchen, but to also help me stay grounded and grateful this holiday season. He always brings such positive energy into our time spent together, and somehow is always able to create a stress-free environment, which is exactly what I needed preparing for this day. We spent pretty much all of Wednesday and Thursday prepping what you see below, and what a whirlwind it was! In a good way, of course ;)
Chris and I vlogged our two days together as well, check out the video below!

Below I have share
all of the recipes* for you to enjoy not only on Thanksgiving, but with your loved ones year round. Remember to celebrate what IS, and not to focus on what IS NOT. Love yourself and choose health, always <3
What's Thanksgiving dinner without a hearty serving of stuffing?
Growing up, I used to LOVE my mom's stuffing, I thought she was the most talented chef in the kitchen based on this one dish, as she would deliver every year, and the flavor would always be spot on. Once I grew up, my mom shared her secret recipe with me when I aided her in Thanksgiving prep....Stove Top Stuffing...uhhh, I'll pass!
Once going vegan, and shifting away from processed, prepackaged foods, I needed to find myself a replacement for this family 'tradition' we used to share. I also wanted to challenge myself and try for a gluten-free recipe as well.
