Getting anxious over what you’re going to eat at your upcoming holiday party? You don’t have to snack on chips and sides the whole time! Thankfully, Whole Foods has released extensive vegan holiday menus nationwide. The menu is an extension of their offerings released for November that consisted of recipes created by Vedge in Philadelphia. Even better, you can preorder any of these dishes for pick up ahead of time to avoid fighting through crowded aisles at the store.
Simply select the location you’d like to order from to get started. Options may vary in price or based on location, so check out what’s in store! Take a look at some of the tasty offerings we have our eyes on…
Roasted whole cauliflower makes for a glorious main.
All you have to do is heat up Whole Food’s Mustard-Glazed Whole Cauliflower for a tender, juicy centerpiece that will shock all your guests! You can pick up this one for $14.99 if they are offering it at a store near you. If you want to make your own cauliflower roast at home, try our Cauliflower Pot Roast.
Mushroom stuffing is a side that everyone will fall for.
Whole Foods is offering a hearty Lentil-Mushroom Stuffing that will win over plant-based and non-plant-based guests alike! Because, after all, who doesn’t love the seasonal flavors of stuffing during the holidays? You can pick up a batch of this dish for $7.99 or you can use it as inspiration when cooking up Chestnut Mushroom Stuffing, pictured above.
A root veggie and potato mash will make this holiday the coziest one ever.
Whole Foods “Cheesy” Rutabaga-Potato Mash is a healthier, plant-based take on the classic holiday mashed potatoes. You can even purchase Whole Foods’ Wild Mushroom Gravy for the full seasonal flavor profile experience. The mash is $7.99 and the gravy is $8.99. Our recipe for Macrobiotic Millet Cauliflower Mash With Shiitake Gravy, pictured above, is another delicious, healthy alternative.
Did all that savory stuff activate your sweet tooth? Preorder some pumpkin pie!
Whole Foods’ 9-inch Pumpkin Pie will make the meal complete! It’s a simple, vegan version of the classic that will likely bring back all kinds of holiday memories. You can purchase this flaky-crusted, creamy pie for $14.99. Want to make one from scratch? Check out this Pumpkin Pie With Coconut Whip and Candied Pecans, pictured above, that has all the classic flavors you know and love.
Pumpkin pie not your thing? Whole Foods is also selling an Apple Crumb Pie.
Another iconic holiday dessert! Whole Foods is also dishing out 9-inch Apple Crumb Pies with a crumbly pie topping and a luscious and tart fruit filling. Preordering one of these sweet treats will cost you $10.99. It reminds us so much of our scrumptious Pear Apple Pie, pictured above, with a crispy crumble.
You don’t have to settle for boring, plain vegetables…
Whole Foods is carrying Sauerkraut-Roasted Rainbow Carrots that are anything but bland. The carrots are roasted and then mixed with tangy sauerkraut to add more layers of flavor and texture. We can’t help but be reminded of our Roasted Spiced Carrots, pictured above, that are lovingly drizzled with tahini sauce.
