What do vegetarians eat for Thanksgiving?

Vegetarians do not eat Turkey, obviously, but on "Turkey Day" we do eat lots of yummy food! Some people would say they eat "Tofurky" which is like a meat substitute made from tofu and made in the shape of a turkey. We don't eat that particular type of meat substitute, because we prefer the flavor of the Worthington Dinner Roast . You can order some here if you want to try it.  The Dinner Roast is made from wheat gluten and soy protein concentrate with several flavorings, spices, and preservatives. It is not, honestly, the most healthy food in the world, because it contains high levels of sodium, fat, and other "stuff" that is not exactly natural.  But, it is delicious and it makes a nice addition to the Thanksgiving meal. 

Q: What do vegetarians eat for Thanksgiving? 

A: There are countless options for non-meat foods that people traditionally prepare for holiday meals. Endless choices, really! So, let me just share what we had one year for Thanksgiving.

Here is what I made for our vegetarian Thanksgiving in our home in 2012. I know that was several years back, but it was the last time I was the "cook" who prepared the holiday feast, so here is our vegetarian Thanksgiving menu for what it's worth. 

1. Worthington Dinner Roast

3. Sweet Potato Casserole

4. Mashed Potatoes

5. Green Beans

6. Corn
