Vegan Holiday Roasts and Main Dishes
vegan turkey style roast with crispy skin
Making your own holiday turkey roast is probably a lot easier than you think. This vegan turkey roast with crispy skin is super easy and affordable to make and is beyond delicious. Just because you are vegan or vegetarian does not mean you have to miss out on a delicious holiday roast, and now you can make your own right at home!
Savory cranberry Vegan meatballs with mashed potatoes
I often make meatballs with thawed Beyond Meat Burgers. They work very well as a meat substitute in all kinds of recipes other than just using them as burgers. Once thawed, they can be used just as you would ground meat. This particular recipe is sweet, tangy, and savory. The sauce screams holidays, and would make a perfect alternative to a traditional holiday meal. The cranberries, onion, and savory spices make such a beautiful sauce for the meatballs, and wonderful topping for the mashed potatoes. You can just as easily use a bag of frozen plant based meatballs, but I really encourage you to try a batch using the Beyond Burgers!
