    This full Thanksgiving menu includes spinach dip, a cauliflower roast, 3 crowd-pleasing side dishes, and a couple of traditional desserts to end the evening.

    I remember my first Thanksgiving being less about enjoying the holidays and more about omg what do I make and what can I eat.

    Nowadays, there are so many great storebought "turk'y" roasts but nothing beats a homemade vegan roast (yes, there's a recipe for that here, too!)

    So far I've cooked 5 totally vegan Thanksgiving dinners - so you know I'm including only the best recipes in this menu for you. These recipes are also omnivore approved for any hesitant guests you might have.

    Don't forget to check out the downloadable version of this menu. It includes the recipes, a full grocery list, a prep guide, and more.
