Our Favorite Vegan and Vegetarian Thanksgiving Main Dish Recipes

Honestly, we would be perfectly happy making a holiday meal that’s all about the “sides.” Who decides what’s a side versus a main anyway? Vegetables are kind of our main thing the other 364 days of the year, after all. But for a lot of folks, a Thanksgiving feast just isn’t the same without a big, bold centerpiece dish that arrives at the table to oohs and ahhs – and there’s something to be said for the ceremony and sense of occasion it provides. So if you’re looking for vegan and vegetarian Thanksgiving main dish ideas, we’ve got a few favorites we think will fit the bill.
