I have never purchased a tofurky, but I have sampled this interesting creation at potlucks, and I did make a homemade “tofu turkey” a few years ago. It was rather delicious, but it also required quite a bit of work, and with so many other delicious vegetarian options out there, I have not attempted to recreate it.
Whether you’re celebrating a meat-free meal this year, or just need inspiration for some healthy, tasty side dishes, check out this tantalizing plethora of recipes at Well’s Vegetarian Thanksgiving. Treehugger has some additional offerings here.
If you are doing the turkey thing (or any kind of meat), look for locally raised, pastured birds. In St. Louis, I know of two sources: Local Harvest Grocery and Fresh Gatherings Cafe. While it is probably too late to preorder a bird for this Thursday, there’s always Christmas and next year to consider.
