Feast for Peace

There’s a gut reaction in some vegans and vegetarians to forgo the Thanksgiving Holiday, it being a little bit too, well, American? There’ve been years we’ve done it too (one of us even going so far as to handcuff himself with dollar bills and walk to an indoor mall covered in blood begging passers-by to “cut him loose”) but the last couple years we’ve settled on our own little ritual for Thanksgiving.
If for no other reason than to counter the glut of nasty food being served, we think spending a day in the kitchen tweaking old recipes and experimenting with sage and fennel and 10 heads of garlic is a perfectly peaceful way to spend a holiday.
For the next week leading up to T-Day, we’ll be posting some recipe ideas that if added together could make for a pretty succulent, sustainable sit-down with friends or family.
