Vegan Dressing NOT Stuffing . . .
Today I was told that dressing is cooked in a pan and stuffing is cooked in a bird! All this time I thought I was making Vegan Stuffing and really it was Dressing. Special thanks to my high school friend Angie for the enlightenment! Although I appreciate the clarification I still can’t bring myself to call it dressing.
This was so amazing served with caramelized onion gravy! (I’ll post that recipe on my Facebook page.
[yumprint-recipe id=’4′]Making stuffing vegan was really pretty easy–I mean it took a few steps and I had to cut up some veggies–the flavor is like nothing that could come out of a box. Just the figs and the walnuts . . . amazing combination. The fresh cranberries! (ok, so maybe I’m getting a little too excited . . . but it was so yummy!)
I’m an accidental vegan–not a “real” vegan and I’m ok with that. My goal is to eat a more plant based diet. This recipe helps me reach that goal!
What do you call it? Dressing or Stuffing?
Be Blessed during this season of giving thanks.

P.P.S.S. Here are my other Thanksgiving dinner posts vegan sweet potatoes, how many cups of potatoes from 5 lbs, how much stuffing to feed 23? The final post is the homeless shelter meal plan that I created.
Love the post Renee …and the vegan dressing sounds amazing! I’ve been vegetarian for 10 years now, so I’ve had to make different food for myself then I do for my 4 teenagers and husband(I’ve tried to feed them what I eat, but they aren’t really into it). So I’m always looking for new recipes. Love vegan food…I feel better when I eat it. THanks again…love the post and your blog ~ wonderful:)
Lorna,
I’ve been eating accidentally vegan off and on for most of my life–but it wasn’t until my daughter at 5 decided that she wasn’t going to “eat dead animals” anymore. So we honored her decision and worked with her on “wording” to be “I prefer not to eat meat, thank you.” I began eating what I made for her–because it looked SO good.
My family is slowly eating more and more plant based foods. I think since we eat so much vegan and non vegan food–they have no idea anymore what is and what isn’t!
Come back again–I have some new things planned for the new year! I’d love to have your expertise to share with us in the comments!
Be Blessed.
