Meatless Monday: Vegetarian Menu Ideas

Thanksgiving Day is almost here. 

In honor of the occasion I have compiled a list of links for some posts from the past which I hope may inspire and entertain you, and perhaps provide a welcome last-minute recipe.

First are links to a variety of Thanksgiving dishes that are vegetarian friendly:

• Acorn Squash Casserole 
• Butternut Squash with Wilted Spinach and Blue Cheese 
• Celeriac 
• Golden Beets 
• Kale Stew
• Kohlrabi
• Pumpkin Cornbread
• Vegan Gravy

Second are these on food history relevant to the day.

• Celebrating the Cranberry 
• The Challenges of an Indigenous Feast 
• The History of Pumpkin Pie 

Happy Monday! Happy Thanksgiving. And thanks for reading.

I often blog on food or food issues on Monday in support of Meatless Monday, one of several programs developed in the Healthy Monday project, founded in 2003 in association with Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Syracuse University’s Newhouse School of Communications. Meatless Monday’s goal is “to help reduce meat consumption 15% in order to improve personal health and the health of our planet.”
