Why not make some veg friendly dishes to pass or to host your own vegan Thanksgiving? Here are some easy recipes to make your own vegan feast.

This recipe is courtesy of So Delicious and is a yummy alternative to the traditional pumpkin pie. Make these super cute by serving them in mason jars.You’re going to add the wet ingredients (minus the whip) into a saucepan with the spices, vanilla, and maple syrup. Bring the mixture to a simmer, simmer it for a little while, occasionally stirring. Put in a bowl to cool. Once cooled, mix in some of the whip and refrigerate for 2 hours. Layer the mixture, granola, and whip; topping with nutmeg and cinnamon for garnish, then enjoy! Click the link for thorough instructions and measurements (I’m no Ina Garten, so what do I know).
