The sweet potato casserole and garlic pumpkin knots were my favorites. The cute little knots were so fun to make! The dough was really easy to work with. The pumpkin pie crust was more difficult. I don't think I chilled the margarine long enough, so it was kind of messy. But the end result was good. I tasted the filling right after it came out of the oven and it had a strong tofu flavor, which made me nervous. But by the next day, all I could taste was pumpkin and spices. It was as good as any non-vegan pumpkin pie I've eaten, if not better! So I'd strongly suggest making your pie the night before and giving it time to chill, especially if you're cooking for omnivores who don't want any "weird" tofu flavors in their pie!
Hope you had a fun Thanksgiving -- I can't wait to check out everyone else's feasts!

ReplyDeleteThis looks like a wonderful dinner! The garlic pumpkin knots look specially delicious. ;)
ReplyDeleteWow pumpkin garlic knots yum! I was just telling a friend about garlic knots and she had never heard of them. Must be an east coast thang.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great Thanksgiving meal!
ReplyDeleteWow! Your feast looks amazing! I served my tofu pumpkin pie to a bunch of omni's and they all thought it was delicious! No one knew it had tofu in it. Hehe. I tried to make garlic knots one time and they failed to rise but since I had success with rolls this time around perhaps I should give them another shot. Kudos on making your own "turkey" cutlets too! They look yummy.
ReplyDeleteI agree - I think the longer pumpkin pie stays in the fridge, the better and better it gets (well, you know within reason, it's never lasted more than 2 days around here so I can't speak on it beyond that).
ReplyDeleteThose knots are very cool looking.
Thanks for mentioning the giveaway!
