Tofurkey, not Turkey!

While I’m not big on the mythology that is Thanksgiving and fully support the indigenous on this day of mourning, I am often forced to participate in the preparation of a feast including a traditional slaughtered turkey due to carnivorous family members. I prepared a few dishes to counteract the meat coup of my dinner table.
