My son has decided to become a vegetarian. Um, ok. I support him in his stuff, so when he comes home for Thanksgiving, I want to have a vegetarian entree for
him. Any vegetarians out here? Anyone have tofurkey before? Recipes?
Help me, OT-wan...you're my only hope!! |

OK, Do not buy that Tofurkey roast. You have to cook it for 2 hours using a marinade. It tasted TERRIBLE and the kitchen smelled bad for two weeks after.
Buy the Tofurkey Deli slices. You just drop them in boiling water for 5 minutes, and they're done. They taste ok, especially served on a roll with lettuce and tomato. |

He has offered to just nosh on rolls and sides, but I want him to have an entree...it's a Dad thing. If tofurkey isn't it, what else might one try?
Yeah...Google is always there, but I like the OT twist!

Cook some bacon when he comes home. That usually cures the newly Vegan/Vegs quick.

Yeah, Baby Jesus...that's a great idea! Turkey, stuffing, homemade gravy, bacon wrapped scallops...that should about cure the lad!

There's so much food at Thanksgiving just stick with the sides. Make sure you use vegetable broth for the stuffing and add nuts for protein. But skip the
nasty tofu stuff.

Never ever try to substitute a meat dish with something vegan. It never works. Meat is supposed to be meat, not some soy stand in. Instead, offer vegetarian
dishes that don't require meat like veggie lasagna (assuming your son still eats dairy), veggie casserole, and etc. Do you know of any kidney bean recipes?
They are great sources of protein, taste good, and make a great alternative to meat.

Meat substitutes are good because I never liked meat to begin with. I don't expect them to taste exactly like meat, so I'm all BRING THE PROTEIN TO MAH
MOUTH.
