| All I need your recs for vegetarian recipes that you’ve tried and taste really good. I am cooking for a crowd ( about 20) & not looking for Indian recipes ( cause I eat them everyday!) . Pls include links if possible! All categories welcome. ? |
| Are you looking for something beyond the usual? Stuffing, mashed potatoes, creamed onions, roasted Brussels sprouts, sweet potato casserole...all vegetarian and egg free. Are you looking for a big vegetarian main dish? |
It doesn’t have to go with the regular Thanksgiving theme, mainly because I know things like stuffing or mashed potatoes will go untouched. I am looking for an appetizer and main vegetarian dish for now. Dessert ideas would be nice too. |

Is butter okay? Sweet potato galette:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.myrecipes.com/recipe/sweet-potato-galette%3famp=true You can make this in a springform pan in the oven too. If you need to make it gluten free use cornstarch instead of flour. Roasted root vegetables: https://www.eatingbirdfood.com/roasted-root-vegetables/ Substitute Brussels sprouts for sweet potatoes.

Rustic tarts from pre-made pastry dough (savory or sweet)
Good for appetizer or dessert Rice pudding for dessert—I love a little cardamom in mine. If your guests are Indian as well, they’re probably used to seeing rice in dessert form. |
| Never make untested recipe for guests. Huge mistake. |
Love these ! Thank you. Great recipes in these blogs. |
Yes. Yes. Yes. No. No. No. I mean. Yes, NEVER make untested recipe for guests. NEVER. |
The op can practice before thanksgiving. Also she sounds like she cooks so she can probably handle roasting a sheet pan of vegetables . |
Spanish Frittata is much more forgiving as far as potatoes dish. For potato galette you need the right potatoes and it is not that easy to make it just so it is perfect.

It is all about timing. She has to know what she is getting into. Experienced or not, even pro chefs do that. |

I love stuffed acorn squash. It’s surprisingly easy to make but it looks so very elegant. Try a vegetarian recipe, this one is delicious! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vegetariantimes.com/.amp/recipes/acorn-squash-with-sun-dried-tomato-polenta |

Roasted veggies with quinoa and arulula. Served at room temp. so very easy to have in the mix.
Variation from the Pioneer Woman. Roast bite sized squares of root veggies on a big cookie sheet with olive oil: butternut squash, beets, white potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, red onions (or any other root veggies you like). 30 mins or until soft and a little browned on edges. Cook quinoa in salted water. (quinoa has a lot of protein). Dressing: roast garlic in foil until soft. smoosh garlic in olive oil, lemon juice (one or two lemons) and a tsp of stone ground mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste. Maybe some apple cider vinegar if you like. Mix the quinoa, veggies and dressing together. Let cool and mix in arugula so it doesn't wilt. This salad/side is so satisfying and healthy. Everyone loves it in my family which includes vegans and carnivores. |
