Vegan diets are gaining popularity and even non-vegans are starting to reduce their intake of animal products for many reasons including the environmental impact.

Holidays can be a tough time to try and eat vegan, so many of the traditional dishes feature animal products. Thanksgiving can be especially hard since the holiday is centered around food and traditionally features a lot of meat.

With veganism being more popular there are starting to be some really great vegan Thanksgiving recipes that do a great job replacing our traditional favorites.

Even if you are going to a potluck with people that eat a variety of diets you can find a vegan dish to bring that everyone can enjoy.
