Here's what my plate included at this year's Thanksgiving feast:
Home-made Mashed Potatoes
I made those myself with only potatoes, water, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. I did very well. They tasted so good I should go make more to eat as left-overs.
Home-made Onion and Mushroom Gravy
I made that myself with Bella mushrooms, white onion, water, miso paste, Marmite, Dale's Seasoning sauce, salt, black pepper, olive oil, and a tiny bit of flour. This was very good. I've perfected my recipe. Once again, I deserve the opportunity to give myself credit for a job well done.
Publix Peas
I made these myself by heating a bag of Publix frozen peas.
Gardein Holiday Roast
A vegan family member brought that. It's a vegan meatless turkey substitute that's stuffed with dressing and comes with gravy. It was really good!
Arrowhead Mills Stuffing, Savory Herb Flavor
That was another vegan item brought by a vegan family member. It was excellent.
Oven Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Garlic
I also made those, and it's just Brussels sprouts cut into halves or quarters with olive oil, minced garlic, and a sprinkle of salt.
Mashed Sweet Potato
A non-vegan family member made that and said it was just sweet potatoes, baked, scooped, and mashed with no other ingredients
Oven Roasted Green Beans
A non-vegan family member made those and said it was just green beans with olive oil and onions.
Clean, guilt-free, nutritious eating on Thanksgiving can be a reality for anyone who chooses it. Deciding to do it is the hardest part. This was all better than any meat I remember eating.
