How To Make A Vegan Turkey (Thanksgiving Edition) - Easiest Way to Have a Tofurkey.
Vegan Thanksgiving is not an easy feat. Most of the dishes are packed with dairy, eggs, or some other animal product. That’s why we came up with this recipe for a vegan turkey. Not only does it taste delicious, but it’s also very easy to make!
For those of you who are vegetarian or vegan, there are some difficulties when it comes to Thanksgiving. There are many dishes that have dairy in them, which can be difficult for vegetarians and vegans to find substitutes for. But don’t worry! We have the perfect dish. This recipe features a delicious vegan turkey that will leave your guests wondering if they were ever missing anything in the first place.
What is a vegan turkey?
A vegan turkey doesn’t contain any animal products, so it can be enjoyed by vegetarians and vegans alike. For this dish, we have made a stuffed vegan turkey breast that is breaded with bread crumbs and then baked until the outside is crispy and the inside is juicy.
It may take some time to get used to not having butter or eggs in your dishes, but there are plenty of substitutes available. For this recipe, we substituted butter for margarine and eggs with chick peas.
How to make a vegan turkey
This vegan turkey is a wonderful alternative to those who are not able to eat meat or those who want to stay away from the saturated fats found in some animal products. It’s easy to make and it tastes delicious!
First, you'll need a large casserole dish or baking dish. You can use a glass dish or an oven-safe ceramic dish. I usually prefer using a glass dish for this recipe because it doesn't have any handles that can get very hot.
Next, you'll need a few cans of mashed "potatoes", which is just mashed potatoes mixed with milk and butter substitutes. You can also use instant mashed potatoes that have been prepared per the instructions on the back of the box.
Add half of your mashed potatoes to your casserole dish and spread them out evenly with a spatula so they cover most of the bottom. Then, add your vegan 'turkey' slices on top of that layer of mashed potatoes. Next, add the rest of your mashed potato mixture over the top of your vegan 'turkey'. The final step is to bake for about 45 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit until browned on top!
