Thanksgiving is centered around the turkey. And the sides are…well, pushed the side. And this year, the sides are going to outshadow the main course. It’s my first thanksgiving being completely vegan. I’ve pretty much joined in on my brother’s plant-based Thanksgiving for the past 3 years, but this year feels different.
And this year, I’ve got a theme. I have been OBSESSED with everything mushroom lately, so I wanted to do a three part recipe series that featured my favorite mushroom-based Thanksgiving recipes.
Gravy is underrated. It’s an afterthought that made from the leftovers of all the good stuff that you made earlier. But I made a very fresh mushroom gravy that you are going to want to put on absolutely everything (so get ready, and make a lot of it)
