Vegetarian Thanksgiving. Not all recipes are vegan, but can easily be veganized!
Happy Thanksgiving Canadians! Here are some recipe ideas for your holiday dinner.

Something to do with my chia seeds. I should really start eating smoothies, etc. for breakfast again.
Chocolate Chia Pudding

- 3/4 cup almond milk
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder

- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Yes! Vegan and gluten free:)
Pumpkin Chocolate-Chip Pizookie
(gluten free!)
Obviously inspired by the Deep-Dish Cookie Pie.
- 2 cans white beans or garbanzos (drained and rinsed) (500g total, once drained)
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1/4 cup pureed pumpkin (or butternut squash or sweet potato)
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 and 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil or coconut oil
- 1 and 1/2 cups brown sugar or coconut sugar (For a sugar-free version, perhaps try xylitol. Also, white sugar will work if you don’t have brown. Also: I know some readers have successfully made my original pie with agave, but I haven’t tried it.)
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Blend everything (except the chips) very well in a food processor (NOT a blender). Blend until it’s super-smooth. Mix in chips, and pour into a pan. (I used a 10-inch springform pan, but you can use a smaller pan if you want a really deep-dish pie.) Cook at 350F for 35 minutes. Let stand at least 10 minutes before removing from the pan.
