Thanksgiving 2020 Menu

 

THANKSGIVING 2020 MENU

 

 

Entree is Roasted Butternut Squash stuffed with Sausage & Cornbread StuffingThis year it will be butternut squash (no acorn) as Ted holds this squash in highest regard for flavor. The cornbread recipe is the one I use to make the corn muffins I have had at the market:  GF, whole-grain, no added fat.  The GF sausage is the one I make for the pizza - no added fat.  This is delicious topped with the onion mushroom gravy.  One squash is cut in half, and with the stuffing, yields 2 servings.  I will put some of the stuffing on the side in a container.  You may also order additional containers of stuffing.  This is SOS-free and soy-free.

1 full squash w/stuffing $24.. (2 servings). ½ squash w/stuffing $12.

Additional 16 oz container of stuffing $7. (our soup-size container)

 

White Wine Onion Mushroom Gravy, made w/o fat. (Rice milk base) GF  16 oz containers. Flavored with sage and thyme.  Made w/house-made broth. (Can be ordered w/o mushrooms).  16 oz $8 (our soup-size container)

 

Creamy Pumpkin Cheesy Sauce:  this was so yummy when we had it on the 11/1 menu, I have decided to offer it on this menu.  It is made of pureed potatoes, fresh roasted pumpkin, soaked cashews, and a lot of seasonings, but no oil.  I really liked it when we had it. It is good on ANYthing:  vegetables, mashed potatoes, millet loaf, acorn squash – you can’t go wrong! Our soup-size container:  $8.

 

Garlic Mashed Potatoes:  the garlic is all steamed and so very mild - I will mix rice milk and nutritional yeast with the Yukon Gold organic potatoes -- NO Earth Balance. (You may add your own if you wish :) These will go in our entrée containers – 12 oz of garlic mashed $9.

 

Fresh Cranberry Sauce w/crushed pineapple, fresh orange and apple. Gently sweetened w/agave. 16 oz containers (our soup-size containers) $8.

 

Alternate entrees:

 

Millet Lentil Loaf:  everyone says it tastes "like Thanksgiving", so here we are. You may order a 9" x 5" x 4" loaf, or a 10 oz mini-loaf. Usually 2 slices per serving on the big loaf.  Delicious with Onion Mushroom Gravy and Garlic Mashed Potatoes. The entire large loaf is about 8 servings.  SOS-free. Soy-free. Full-size loaf $30.  Small loaf $12

 

Seitan Corned Beef (the whole loaf) This is what I make for the Reuben sandwiches.  I slice it and eat it by itself, and I think it is delicious.  It is delicious w/o gravy, but you could certainly put the gravy on it, and have it with the Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Brussels Sprouts, etc.  The loaf serves 8.  It also keeps well in the refrigerator for more than a week, and yes, you can freeze it.  $38 for the loaf.

 

Roasted Brussels Sprouts & Cinnamon Butternut Squash w/Pecans & Cranberries.  The name says it all.  SOS-free.  This side dish is beautifully colorful, and has a nice contrast of ingredients.  Our soup-size container - $8 (enough for 2 servings)

 

You may also order containers of our Cashew Cheez Spread, which is great on crackers, sandwiches, etc.  4 oz or 8 oz containers. 4 oz $5./  8 oz $8

 

Black Bean Greek Olive Mushroom Walnut Tapenade, also excellent on crackers or veggies. This has been a favorite in my family since I started making it in the early ‘90’s; my sister requested it for her wedding reception in the late ‘90’s.  Our soup-size container $12.

 

In 2019 PETA  awarded Green Heart's Tofu Pumpkin Pie as one of the Top 10 Vegan Pumpkin Pies.  But we all know that ALL the pies are yummy ;-)

 

Silken Tofu Pumpkin Pie w/organic spelt crust. 9-inch deep-dish $30. If you need GF, I can make an oat flour crust – which is not a shaped pastry crust.

We are using our fresh baked pumpkins that we’ve been using all month. There is no fat in the pumpkin filling; there is a small amount of coconut oil in the spelt crust (most fat is replaced out with rice milk and the agave sweetener).  The oat crust has no fat (like the crust in the pumpkin bars). Also Pumpkin Mini-pies (as I have each week at the farmers market) in spelt crust OR order with oat crust:  $6

 

Organic Apple Pie in organic spelt crust, lattice top.  9-inch deep-dish $30.  We’re using organic Granny Smith apples.

 

Pear Cranberry Upside Down Cake is delicious and beautiful.  Made w/o any added fat, not too sweet.  10-inch    $30.

 

Pecan Pie:  organic spelt crust. 9-inch deep-dish  $35

GF Pecan Tarts:  These can be individual size (5”) as I have at the market $6.50

Also, 9-inch or 11-inch. Prices TBD

 

Pumpkin Pecan Uncheescake:  as I’ve had at the market the past 2 weeks: our tofu pumpkin uncheesecake decorated w/pecans around the top edge.  6-inch $30 (serves 6). 10-inch $40 (serves 10)

 

Chocolate Pumpkin Uncheesecake.  GF, no added fat.  Silken tofu base for the chocolate mousse, which is spread on top of the (silken tofu-based) pumpkin uncheesecake.  6-inch $33 (serves 6)   10-inch $45 (serves 10)

 

Toasted Hazelnut Cacao Truffles $1.75/each
