Vegan eaters everywhere are naturally accustomed to dietary obstacles at the dinner table. However, Thanksgiving presents a particular challenge: it’s an entire meal designed to complement one beloved, iconic, totally carnivorous dish.<\/p>\n

From the buttery potatoes to the meaty stuffing, what\u2019s a hungry veg-head to do? Well, long gone are the days of rubbery Tofurkey and canned cranberry goo because we found delicious vegan fare like\u00a0smokey mac and cashew-cheese, lentil loafs, and dreamy\u00a0desserts that put basic pies to shame.<\/p>\n

One thing is for sure — this year, vegan eaters will have a lot on their plates thanks to these recipes below:<\/p>\n

\"biscuits\"<\/a>Pumpkin Sage Biscuits<\/a><\/strong>
\nThese three-step biscuits, from culinary veg goddess Chloe Coscarelli, are topped with sweet, simple syrup. Repeat after us, “Bye, bye, Bisquik!”<\/p>\n

\n

\"mac\"<\/a>Butternut Mac and Cheese<\/a><\/strong>
\nAnyone who has ever made nutritional-based cheese knows how creamy the vegan-friendly sub can be. Add some rich butternut squash and brown rice macaroni shells for a secretly healthy entree.<\/p>\n

\n

\"curry\"<\/a>Curried Spaghetti Squash and Chickpea Toasts<\/a><\/strong>
\nA flurry of spices and extra virgin olive oil in this no-fuss app makes for a scrumptious spin on traditional toast.<\/p>\n

\n

\"apple-fennel-sage-lentil-loaf\"<\/a>Apple, Fennel, and Sage Lentil Loaf<\/a><\/strong>
\nA slightly tangy glaze graces this hearty loaf, which is balanced by a touch of sweet apple. You might want to double the recipe \u2014 the leftovers go great in sandwiches.<\/p>\n

\n

\"gracy\"<\/a>Vegan Gravy<\/a><\/strong>
\nThe secret ingredient in this porcini-based broth? British kitchen staple, Marmite! It also calls for port, which we definitely recommend savoring \u00e1 la mode.<\/p>\n

\n

\"tumblr_inline_nxmip8z8tG1rnypoy_500\"<\/a>Shaved Kale, Fennel and Asian Pear Salad<\/a><\/strong>

\n

\"stuffing\"<\/a>Vegan Stuffing<\/a><\/strong>
\nMeat has met its match with this hearty, mushroom-heavy twist on the supper staple. Leeks, fresh sage, and toasted pecans? Now that’s the stuff!<\/p>\n

\n

\"pumpkin<\/a>Simple Pumpkin Soup<\/a><\/strong>
\nThis rich, creamy pur\u00e9e is savory, sweet, and everything spice. The kale sesame topping is optional but def worth it.<\/p>\n
