1. Creamy Pumpkin Soup With Pumpkin Sour Cream
Jazz up creamy pumpkin soup with crispy chickpeas, pomegranate seed, toasted pumpkin seeds, and artichokes! The breaded “parmesan” baked artichokes give this meal a little extra oomph, but the soup is just as delectable without them. The pomegranate seeds were a wonderfully sweet addition that is definitely a necessity in this Creamy Pumpkin Soup With Pumpkin Sour Cream recipe by Gina Fontana.
2. The Vegducken: Butternut Squash Stuffed With Eggplant, Zucchini, and a Mushroom Lentil Stuffing
Meet the ultimate holiday centerpiece: The Vegducken: Butternut Squash Stuffed With Eggplant, Zucchini, and a Mushroom Lentil Stuffing by Jasmine Briones. It looks too show-stoppingly awesome to eat without taking hundreds of photos but smells so mouthwateringly delicious that you might forget all about that part. Roasted butternut squash is stuffed with eggplant, zucchini, whole scallions, and layered with a savory, filling of sautéed mushrooms, red onion, scallions, red lentil, chickpeas, and gluten-free breadcrumbs that are puréed into crumbly deliciousness. Happy Thanksgiving.
3. Easy Garlic Chive Twice-Baked Potatoes
Make these Easy Garlic Chive Twice-Baked Potatoes by Nichole Harju for a perfect dairy-free side dish. Not only is this recipe creamy and cheesy, but it’s also vegan.
4. Butternut Squash Mac and Cheese Casserole
This Butternut Squash Mac and Cheese Casserole by Gabrielle St. Claire is comfort food heaven. Sweet, creamy butternut squash is paired with decadently cheesy macaroni elbows and sealed with a unique flatbread topping. The finishing touches really put it over the top, from the smoky shiitake bacon to the red pepper flakes and maple syrup. Normally, we’d say this casserole is perfect to make for a week of easy meals, but we know this one will only last a few days.
5. Everything Bagel Holiday Stuffing
This Everything Bagel Holiday Stuffing recipe by Jasmine Briones is a riff off of traditional sourdough stuffing but it has something special – bagels. Everything bagels add a punch of flavor that you wouldn’t get otherwise and really makes this stuffing the bomb. This delightful side dish is perfect for the holidays.
