“I have served an all-vegan Thanksgiving to the most die-hard carnivores and no one misses the meat. You don’t need animal products to capture the spirit and savory flavors of Thanksgiving on your table. I personally think that a vegan Thanksgiving is more exciting than a regular one — there’s always something new and it’s not just the same old spread. The plates are pretty darn clean when we get up from the table.”

—Chloe Coscarelli, vegan chef who won the Food Network’s “Cupcake Wars,” competition with her vegan desserts. Coscarelli is featuring several Thanksgiving recipes on the New York Times “Well” blog, which is publishing a vegetarian or vegan recipe every day until Thanksgiving. Have your family clean their plates of Chloe’s Harvest Stuff Portobello Mushrooms, Maple-Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Toasted Hazelnuts and Chocolate Pumpkin Bread Pudding
