I was asked by many of you to post a write-up I did last year regarding my meal as a vegetarian on Thanksgiving day. Well as promised here it is, photo above and all.
This is my 10th year celebrating a Thanksgiving meal as a vegetarian and I might add, some people who “love me” have decided to give up their Turkey on tomorrow as well. LOL…
Trust me, shifting the focus from the bird to the rest of the meal can have a surprising effect on both your eating habits and the creativity of your cooking.
I always allow the vegetables to play a major role at the table from which I’ll dine and this is exciting to some who wish to add variety to their meal.
A turkey will be present and in the midst of tomorrow’s dinner, it just won’t be “the center of the meal”.
There will be collard greens, string beans, stuffing, cabbage, macaroni and cheese, yams, asparagus, broccoli, spinach, rice, baked potatoes, fish and that’s right; plenty or cornbread.
And just to think.., ten years ago, I thought being a vegetarian would make my holidays dull and boring but instead it forced me to be a better cook! And before you ask..”Yes I can cook”
Have a “Happy Thanksgiving” my CEO family….
