A wonderful Vegan Holiday Feast vegan dinner starting with roasted stuffed acorn squash, silky mashed potatoes, gravy and sautéed brussels sprouts. I also enjoy adding homemade cranberry sauce for a splash of bright color and wonderful traditional flavors. For this dish I decided to leave out the holiday vegan roast and only serve it with roasted vegetables and homemade cranberry sauce. Yum!
Welcome to my vegan kitchen, where we’re all about celebrating the holidays with compassion, flavor, and a whole lot of plant-based goodness! Today, I’m thrilled to share with you a mouthwatering holiday feast that will leave your taste buds dancing with delight.
Picture this: a cozy table adorned with flickering candles, festive decorations, and the intoxicating aroma of roasted stuffed acorn squash wafting through the air. It’s a scene straight out of a vegan dream, and I can’t wait to dive in!
Our star of the evening is none other than the humble acorn squash, roasted to perfection and stuffed with a savory mixture of quinoa, mushrooms, cranberries, and aromatic herbs. Each forkful is a symphony of flavors, with the sweetness of the squash perfectly complementing the earthy richness of the filling.
But wait, there’s more! No holiday spread would be complete without a generous helping of creamy mashed potatoes, lovingly whipped into submission with a splash of plant-based milk and a dollop of dairy-free butter. These silky spuds are the epitome of comfort food, guaranteed to warm your soul with every bite.
And let’s not forget about the gravy – oh, the glorious gravy! Made from scratch with wholesome ingredients like vegetable broth, flour, and herbs, it’s the perfect finishing touch to our holiday feast. Drizzle it generously over your mashed potatoes, and prepare to be transported to vegan gravy heaven.
Of course, no holiday meal would be complete without a side of sautéed brussels sprouts, their tender leaves caramelized to perfection and bursting with flavor. Paired with a vibrant homemade cranberry sauce, it’s a match made in plant-based paradise – the perfect balance of sweet, tart, and savory.
Now, you might be wondering why there’s no vegan roast on the table. Well, let me tell you – when you’ve got roasted vegetables this delicious, who needs anything else? By skipping the traditional roast, we’re letting the natural flavors of our plant-based ingredients shine through, creating a meal that’s both wholesome and satisfying.
So there you have it, my friends – a holiday vegan dinner that’s sure to impress even the most discerning of palates. Whether you’re a seasoned vegan or just dipping your toes into the plant-based world, this feast is guaranteed to leave you feeling merry and bright. Happy holidays, and may your plates be filled with love, laughter, and plenty of delicious vegan food!
This budget friendly dinner turned out delicious and so wonderful. By leaving out a pre-made processed vegan roast, I saved money for holiday shopping.
This meal pleased and satisfied all my guest leaving room for dessert.
The entire family enjoyed this satisfying meal and loved that they still had room for the warm vegan pumpkin pie that was served for dessert!
I sure did enjoy making this Holiday dinner with my family. Everything was made with love and turned out so good! Clean and easy cooking that allowed me to spend more time with loved ones visiting.
