    With US Thanksgiving, Hanukkah and Xmas on the way, we the veg*ans of the forums, get to hash out the perennial question:
    what do we serve as a centerpiece on the food holidays?

    Post your potential menus, opinions on the center of the table options, et cetera.

    Personally, I use Joanne Stepaniak's Oven Roasted Tom Tofu. (Vegan Vittles)

    This year, I'm folding into a new partner's family traditions, so I don't know if I'll be making a thing... or simply fending off the you are a what?? comments.

    ooh! ooh! i will definitely be posting in this thread when i get to a real computer and not my kindle. i have some awesome fail safe recipes i use every year and i always try a few new ones too. i look forward to this time for cooking and baking all year. i probably enjoy the food making more than the actual holidays.. with a shitty retail schedule it's really the only holiday activity i have time for. i'm working a double on thanksgiving day (time and a half $$$) but have off black friday from my morning job at least so hopefully i can convince my family to have a lil day after veggie feast with me...

    When the rest of the world eats dead birds, I eat birdseed: millet loaf.

    Looking forward to it, SweetB!
    Keith: I should bring that just as a statement...but I'm not a long enough term partner to get away with it.

    Squawkers: yes. New partner.
    My divorce went through in April 2010, once I could afford to file. It was amicable, although we are in the not talk for several months part of getting beyond the breakup.

    I need to update my profile. I'm not in Colo anymore. I do hope to return.
    New partner is not veggie. one sister is, most of the time (capitulating pescatarian)

    Got the full tofurkey kit for $13. It was an $8 discount, couldn't pass it up.

    Tofurkey is something I more than like. And definitely look forward to. I've eaten it almost every thanksgiving for the last 8 years.

    Same as wonka, tofurkey all the way! Or vegan shepards pie, it's so homey and filling and I can get the majority of my family to try the pie. It's a lot harder to get my family to try the tofurkey. Also my older brother makes a veggy lasangna with thinnly slice eggplant instead of noodles for a lower calorie meal.
