There are so many great options for a plant based holiday main course. Here are a few ideas. What do you typically serve?? I would love to hear about it in a comment! This roasted acorn squash is loaded with the most delicious vegan stuffing with apple, kale, pecans, croutons, and lots of fresh herbs. Or skip the croutons for a gluten-free stuffing! This vegan holiday roast is perfect for Christmas or Thanksgiving. If you are looking for a delicious vegan main course, this roast is a must-try. Tamales are a classic Christmas dish for so many cultures. Make these vegan tamales in the Instant Pot or stove-top steamer. This vegan tamale recipe has two delicious filling options! Many families love a great pasta casserole for the holidays. This easy vegan manicotti is impressive enough to be served as the main course for a Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner! These tender, vegan steaks have a great flavor and an amazing choice for the main course. Much less fuss than a roast, and they won't take up valuable oven space!! A hearty potato casserole is always a hit at holiday dinners, and this tater tot casserole is one of our favorites. Your guests will love it too! We need a variety of vegan side dishes to go with all those delicious main courses! And to be honest, the side dishes are really the best part of most holiday dinners for me - I love having a wide variety of side dishes! Mashed Butternut Squash with White Beans is an amazing side dish and a great alternative to mashed potatoes. Made with roasted butternut squash and roasted garlic, it is out-of-this-world delicious and goes with everything! While this is not technically a side dish, I could not leave out gravy from this list!! A great plant-based gravy is a MUST for a holiday dinner! The perfect addition to your holiday table, this creamy vegan green bean casserole is made with fresh green beans and will be a crowd pleaser. Crispy roasted Brussels sprouts are topped with the most delicious Maple Balsamic Drizzle. This is an irresistible side dish for the holidays! Lovely cranberries add a gorgeous pop of color and flavor and are PERFECT for Christmas and holiday dinners. Make this cranberry relish from FRESH cranberries for a great burst of flavor. Amazing on vegan roasts and on top of vegan stuffing. Stuffing is another staple that is usually on the holiday spread and this delicious vegan stuffing is also gluten-free and allergy-friendly. Delicious and easy to make, butternut squash is mixed with apples and roasted until it is just right. Perfect for the holidays, this dish is sure to please friends and family. This vegan sweet potato casserole is a classic holiday dish. Full of flavor and holiday spices, this sweet potato casserole is vegan and gluten-free. Make sure to save room for dessert! These plant-based vegan desserts are some of our favorites and are perfect for the holidays! Cheesecake is a classic dessert that everyone looks forward to, and this vegan cheesecake is so festive thanks to a red berry sauce drizzle! If you haven't gotten enough pumpkin in this year, then make this gorgeous double layer vegan pumpkin cheesecake. The double layer filling is made in ONE bowl, so it's a super easy and impressive dessert that vegans and omnivores will love. This vegan coquito (or Puerto Rican eggnog) has just a few simple ingredients and is amazing with its coconutty and slightly spiced flavor. A holiday party is not complete without eggnog, and this dairy-free vegan eggnog is super delicious. You won't miss the eggs or milk in this eggnog, and it's kid-friendly too! Make it in just 5 minutes using a blender, and then if your guests want, they can add a little something-something to it 😉 . A fun and delicious holiday dessert, this monkey bread is vegan and paleo-friendly for a tasty holiday dessert. A rich and creamy holiday dessert, this shortbread is topped with a thick layer of chocolate ganache and will be the perfect addition to your holiday dessert table. Mixed with raisins and a sweet buttery maple filling, the holidays will not be complete without serving these delicious butter tarts.Vegan Holiday Recipes
