Everyone Loves Sweet Potato Crisp
Whenever I'm invited to a holiday party, they always ask me to bring my Sweet Potato Crisp. I could be concerned and wonder if they only want me for my food, but I don't mind because it is a super easy casserole to bring to parties.
I'm a vegetarian, so I always bring meatless dishes to parties to make sure that there is something yummy for the vegetarians and to show the meat eaters that vegetarian food is very yummy. Sweet Potato Crisp is the most popular meatless dish that I prepare, it's super easy to prepare, and it's a one-dish meal that's super easy to transport to parties.

Other Thanksgiving Ideas
- Easy Broccoli and Cheese
- A super simple way to get your kids to eat more broccoli. Vegans can skip the butter and replace the mayonnaise with Veganaise. Also, replace the cow's milk with plain almond milk or soy milk. A great vegan cheese is Vegan Gourmet.
- Pumpkin Bread
- Pumpkin bread is a fantastic hostess gift when you are invited to someone else's house for Thanksgiving dinner.
- Tofurky Roast
- The men in my family really love the Tofurky Roast for Thanksgiving dinner. It's super tasty and stuffed with wild rice and whole wheat bread crumb stuffing.
